This is a 10* NON-CONFERENCE TOTAL OF THE MONTH on the UNDER BYU/Boise State.

This is only the 11th meeting between the schools ever. Last year BYU won this game 28-25 in Provo and I expect a similar final combined outcome here as well.

BYU faces its first real test of the year after steamrolling its first three opponents by a combined score of 148-24.

Zach Wilson has been great in the early going for BYU, but it's been its defense which has been the most impressive.

And that's bad news for a Boise State team which has questions at quarterback. Hank Bachmeier didn't make the trip to play last week, so Jack Sears made a spot start. The Broncos are now 2-0 to open the season, but the step up in competition, especially on the defensive end, will put the home side to the test here.

I expect another highly competitive battle, one which sneaks UNDER once it's all said and done!

Good luck, NP
