SALT LAKE CITY — Welcome back, college football.
After all three Football Bowl Subdivision teams opened the regular season Thursday through Saturday, we brought former BYU linebacker David Nixon and Utah standout Stevenson Sylvester to break down the big plays from the Utes, Cougars and Aggies.
BYU rolled into the 2018 season opener with low expectations, but by the time they came out of Tucson early Sunday morning, the Cougars had a 28-23 win over Arizona.
The Cougars took advantage of a revamped offensive line with new coordinator Jeff Grimes, bullied the Wildcats with the jet sweep, and held vaunted dual-threat quarterback Khalil Tate to just 14 yards rushing.
