PROVO — Ranked BYU could lose to McNeese State this Saturday.
That is if Kalani Sitake’s team repeats the “lull” in practices that existed after beating Arizona in the opener.
That’s just the science of football.
McNeese State is 3-0, possesses Cal-Berkeley speed and is capable on any given day.
Just look at the Big Ten last week, which had half its members lose to non-Power 5 opponents, including No. 6 Wisconsin’s stunning loss to then-unranked BYU at Camp Randall Stadium. Temple beat Maryland, Akron upset Northwestern and South Florida beat Illinois.
Gulp. It was a banquet of the over-confident.
