Spaulding Roundup: Keeping It Close
Lot of news and notes to get to this Tuesday morning. We will start with Cal. Both CRN and ATV talked about their upcoming opponent yesterday afternoon. If you don’t know it yet, Bruins are about 18 point underdogs heading into Saturday’s game. One of the main reasons Cal is such a huge...
Gutty Young Bruins
Earlier in the week Achilles called this game out as a "must win." I thought this was one of the more winnable games left on our schedule, but I hesitated to call it out as a "must win" not because I didn't have confidence in our young players but more out of respect for the solid program Harbaugh...
Right Direction
Let’s do a quick reset before getting to extended thoughts on last night’s game. Let’s take a count on what CRN and Norm Chow were working with in one of the toughest venues in college football against one of the more talented teams in the west coast: A 3rd string JUCO transfer...

Staying Positive: BYU Second Half Thread
All righty then. Everyone needs to step back, relax and take a deep breath. Things couldn't go worse in a game in which we were huge underdogs. It's only the second game of the season. The season is not lost. Just think back to Howland's first season ... and see if you can remember that game...
Gameday Roundup & Notes: Streak Busters?
We have talked a lot about BYU’s current 12 game winning streak, which is the longest in the nation. Today in the Press Enterprise, Kevin Pearson brings up another streak that I think is far more significant relevant to this game. UCLA hasn’t beaten a ranked team on the road since 2001,...
