BYU, nearly from the beginning, looked out of place - maybe not out-skilled, but out of sorts.
Oregon wide receiver Troy Franklin hauls in a catch despite tight coverage by BYU defensive back Jakob Robinson during the first half of an NCAA college football game, Saturday, Sept. 17, 2022, in Eugene, Ore. Lack of discipline. Mistakes. Assignment errors.
Then it had to go on the road and play Oregon, a perennial Pac-12 contender. It was a nationally televised game. The environment, for a top-25 game, was what you would expect for one of the best venues in the country.On the first offensive drive of the game, BYU turned it over on downs near midfield. Oregon marched right down the field to score a touchdown. It was off to the races from there.
Preparing for the moment also means something for the Cougars in the long term; you could argue this stretch was a taste of the Big 12 life that awaits BYU. A schedule in the Power Five, particularly in a competitive Big 12 Conference, will routinely require the Cougars to knock off big opponents one week and turn around highly ranked opponents the next.
