Meet the Opponent

BYU enters this week's game at 4-2 after two straight wins over AAC competition. The Cougars defeated East Carolina last week, 45-38, and UConn the week before in a 30-13 win. The two lone losses on BYU's schedule came against UCLA and Michigan. The loss to the Bruins was only a 24-23 loss, but the Michigan loss looked awful. The Wolverines, albeit in Ann Arbor, beat-up the Cougars in a 31-0 shutout. To be fair to BYU, the country has come around to the idea that maybe Michigan is a heck of a lot better than initially thought, so that loss, while bad in the box score, maybe isn't as bad as the final score suggests.
