Even though I am a bruin, I have to admit UCLA was pretty lucky to beat BYU, which dominated the game but simply gave it away. With their offense, BYU is not as bad as many people think. This is just a new trend in college football: the passing offense is a big equalizer among college powerhouses. In the past few years, many schools achieve national prominence by installing a passing attack. Look at Illinois, Maryland, Miami, Florida, West Virginia, Boston College, Iowa, .... A good passing team can almost always beat a good running team. Look how Georgia, Nebraska and Oklahoma fared in the so-called "game for the national championship" in the past 3 years. See how Auburn did against Miami and Florida last year. BYU certainly has a fair chance to beat Oklahoma, Nebraska and likes. -- Eddy Lor ...!(ihnp4,ucbvax)!ucla-cs!lor lor@LOCUS.UCLA.EDU
