BYU football and the opposing Stanford Cardinal meet in week two under vastly different pretenses.
The Cougars, exceeding expectations and dominating their overmatched foe on opening weekend by a whopping 69 points, enter their second week with a 1-0 record, an avalanche of momentum, and all the confidence in the world -- especially when looking at the opposite sideline. Stanford is 0-1 after dropping their week 0 matchup with Hawaii in Honolulu. A disturbing upset and an indicator that, though expectations were low, reality can be far worse.
No rest for the visitors from Palo Alto, though, they'll visit a deafening environment in Provo that was filled beyond capacity for the opening week against an FCS opponent.
