Dick Harmon: BYU's Tristen Hoge glad to be bowling, likes direction of young Cougar team

Spenser Heaps, Deseret News

PROVO — Offensive lineman Tristen Hoge believes BYU’s offense is headed in the right direction entering next week’s Famous Idaho Potato Bowl against Western Michigan in Boise.

All the lifting, the work spent avoiding pre-snap penalties, the managing a lineup through injuries, and almost registering an upset of Utah in the season finale at Rice-Eccles Stadium are his markers.

Hoge believes the Cougars have bought into what head coach Kalani Sitake is doing, and going to Boise for a postseason game is far better than having a season end with no bowl game at all.
