BYU downgrade without Hill?

[sendacash]

How much have you guys downgraded BYU in your power ratings now that QB Taysom Hill is going to be out for the season? I knocked them down 4 points with the injury, coupled with the bad loss. I did not see the Utah St. game, but noticed the backup QB for BYU threw 3 picks after entering the game so maybe score was a bit misleading. I had written off Utah St. a couple weeks ago after Keeton went down, but it looks like Garreston had a pretty good game, at least on the stat line.

Hill goes out in the State game and Stewart comes in and throws three picks. I'll be playing UCF.

Garrettson was solid last year after Keeton went down and he's probably considered 1b if Keeton was 1a. Honestly, USU does not miss a beat and are probably better right now with him at QB. I'd stay away from BYU until we see how the new QB does with a week of practice.

hill a crushing blow
garretson an upgrade

tons, he was their motor, he was their edge, he was their difference maker

no opinion on this week's game. Usually teams seem to rally together and play tight for a week or two, an us against the world mentality.

The line is pretty much even now. I had figured with Hill that BYU would have been -6 on the road. Don't see much of a let down in this spot. UCF wins at home but with 1/2 won't cover. BOL
