In Provo, Utah, Utah Tech’s Trailblazers suffered a 63‑7 defeat at the hands of Brigham Young University, extending their winless start to three games after opening the season 0‑2.
Coach’s Assessment
Head coach Lance Anderson took the opportunity to dissect BYU’s roster, pointing to running back L.J. Martin as a clear example of championship‑caliber talent and noting the athleticism of the offensive and defensive lines as well as the potential of the quarterback and young receivers.
Anderson also highlighted BYU’s head coach Kalani Sitake, praising his deep grasp of the program’s culture, and new defensive coordinator Kelly Poppinga, whose previous experience under Bronco Mendenhall adds credibility to the staff.
Despite the lopsided score, Anderson remains confident that BYU will enjoy a successful season, citing the team’s balanced attack and depth, while Utah Tech’s Trailblazers are set to travel to Montana next week for a high‑profile matchup that promises a packed crowd and intense atmosphere.
