Over the next few weeks, The O'Colly sports staff will release its Big 12 preseason rankings in the form of team previews. This time, it's the BYU Cougars, which our writers picked to finish 10th.
BYU needed to make some big additions in the offseason and do so quickly.
The Cougars lost starting quarterback Jaren Hall, top running back Chris Brooks and leading receiver Puka Nacua, all now on NFL rosters, from last season’s 8-5 squad. On top of that, 20 players hopped into the transfer portal just as BYU headed into its maiden season in the Big 12.
