The Rockets have been rolling over weak opponents while BYU has been grinding with some good teams out West, and West Virginia. With this game being in Utah, look for Utah to really experience some bumps in the road on offense and be put to the test. BYU may not find a lot of answers on offense itself, though, so look for this to be a classic BYU football game.
