Is the new excuse for every time a team gets their doors blown off going to be they prepared differently in practice due to Covid?

I am glad BYU is not on our schedule this year.

They looked better than they probably are by default of how awful Navy is. And with the schedule they have, they should easily be undefeated.

This BYU team would hand it to the Vols.
A lot of people might be mad about this comment, but considering how they looked vs the fact they beat us in Neyland last year, you might be right.

Keep in mind I said might. Based on them beating us last year along with how they looked vs Navy, it's not unreasonable to think they could beat us. We've not played a game, so to think we couldn't possibly lose to BYU is silly.

I would take a 4 loss Baylor team in the CFP over an undefeated BYU team that played that schedule.

If BYU could have scheduled five scheduled five ACC/Big XII teams instead of five Big Ten/Pac-12 teams and had Sun Belt opponents instead of Mountain West opponents on its initial schedule, there's a fair chance that they'd have twelve games lined up with an outside chance of making the CFP with a convincing undefeated season.

Alas, an 8-0 BYU team with Army or Houston as its toughest opponent isn't even going to sniff the G5 NY6 spot.

Their schedule is a joke. My take away from last night had more to do with the fact that Navy was ill prepared to play tackle football . In fact, I’d say that their coach could’ve done much more physical harm to his players last night than anything Covid could’ve done by mismanaging their preseason practice philosophy. If there were any teams that weren’t hitting in preseason camp yesterday I guarantee that there aren’t today.

Yeah you have to tackle in practice and hit. BYU d line lived 4 yards deep on navy's side f the LoS for most of the night. Not being used to physical plays will do that. Hard for anyone to have success yet alone the triple option.
