BYU center Connor Pay during an NCAA college football game against South Florida Saturday, Sept. 3, 2022, in Tampa, Fla.BYU offensive lineman Connor Pay spent the last 36 hours like he always does after a big game.and got a late start the next morning. But by midday on Sunday, he was sitting down in his apartment, watching film of Oregon’s front seven.
So Pay said the next five days will be a crash course in making adjustments ahead of No. 25 Oregon to prepare for an equally daunting defense. But in its first major test of the season, the offensive line didn’t fare that much better. In 2021, running back Tyler Allgeier rushed for just 33 yards against Baylor’s defense. This year, starter Chris Brooks went for only 31 yards on 13 carries. As a team, the Cougars averaged 2.5 yards per carry.
“Very similar,” Sitake said. “Stylistically they are doing a lot of things similar and I think they are using their talent really well.”
