  • Are We Bozos? | BYU Beat Arizona—But Everyone Wants to Talk About the Band
    Sep 17 2026

    Apparently, we’re bozos, tool bags, cornballs—and the two biggest tools on YouTube. We respond to the chaos in last week’s comment section and clarify what we actually meant by “defund the band.”

    Then we get into BYU’s 28–17 win over Arizona:

    • Was Bear Bachmeier’s throw to Legend Glasker the best BYU deep ball since Zach Wilson?
    • How much did the slippery field hurt the Cougars?
    • Is Isaiah Glasker looking slower this season?
    • Were BYU’s defensive play calls actually bad?
    • Are the wide receivers outperforming the tight ends?
    • Should molded cleats be outlawed at LaVell Edwards Stadium?

    We also debut “Start, Bench, Cut,” update the season-long score prediction standings, recognize some unsung heroes, and preview BYU’s road matchup with Colorado State—including the Rams’ biggest threats, BYU’s growing injury concerns, and our final score predictions.

    Nate’s prediction: BYU 41, Colorado State 13
    Josh’s prediction: BYU 45, Colorado State 16

    Let us know your prediction in the comments!

  • Utah Fans Are the Worst & BYU Should Defund the Band | Arizona Preview
    Sep 9 2026

    Utah fans came after Drake Toll—and Josh has had enough.

    We open this week’s episode by going scorched earth on Utah’s fan base, its Big 12 entrance, and the rivalry it supposedly doesn’t care about.

    Then we turn the brutally honest treatment toward our own side and explain why it may be time to DEFUND the BYU marching band.

    We also break down what stood out against Utah Tech, put Nate’s ridiculous BYU quarterback knowledge to the test, introduce our season-long score prediction competition, and preview BYU’s matchup with Arizona.

    Is Utah really the worst fan base in college football? Does the Cougar Marching Band improve or hurt the atmosphere at LaVell Edwards Stadium? And will BYU handle Arizona comfortably—or are we getting ahead of ourselves?

    Let us know where we’re right, where we’re wrong, and what score you’re predicting this week.

    Amen, Max.

    Go Cougs.
