BYU’s Best Opponent Ever?

TCU coach Gary Patterson said folks in his part of the country aren’t giving BYU much of a chance. But he thinks the Cougars have a puncher’s chance because they’ve had more than just a week to prepare.New Wyoming coach Dave Christensen, who was Missouri’s offensive coordinator last year in a 62-21 loss to OU, isn’t so sure.

“I know one thing,” Christensen said. “We had a pretty good football team at Missouri a year ago, and we couldn’t play on the same field as them.”

Both Mendenhall and BYU quarterback Max Hall said Oklahoma will be the best team they have ever faced.
