BYU is ending the independence era the same way it ended its Mountain West era: With a bowl game in Albuquerque.
BYU running back Hinckley Ropati celebrates with wide receiver Chase Roberts, right, after a 43-yard touchdown against Stanford during the first half of an NCAA college football game in Stanford, Calif., Saturday, Nov. 26, 2022.
SMU went 7-5 this season in Lashlee’s first year as head coach. Like BYU, the Mustangs had an up-and-down year marked by a three-game losing streak from September to early October. Also like the Cougars, SMU’s defense has been the main source of the team’s issues — allowing over 50 points twice in November.
Sitake has said the most important aspect of this bowl game, for him, is the added practice time to evaluate the younger players. He is still deciding who BYU’s core will be heading into the Power Five next year.
