BYU vs Coastal Carolina Preview
One of the most important college football games of the season will take place Saturday, but it wasn’t originally on the schedule. In fact, it was just put on the docket this week for both squads, after the Chanticleers’ game against Liberty was scrapped.
“Obviously, we know the brand that BYU has: a tremendous amount of success and respect for the institution,” CCU athletic director Matt Hogue said. “People know that name brand very well. For us to have an opportunity to play against them and to showcase to the nation what we feel about our program, because our program is a rising brand in college athletics, as well; it’s tremendous to have that opportunity and to play on this stage.
“This is a big part of why we do what we do in this business.”
The game is really the best-case situation for both squads, which are looking to improve their resumes as the college football postseason approaches. For BYU, a win against another top 25 program is huge as they angle for a spot in the College Football Playoff.
“We have said from the very beginning this year that we want to play games, and I know our guys are excited to have this opportunity to play on Saturday against a great opponent in nationally-ranked Coastal Carolina,” BYU coach Kalani Sitake said. “This is a really well-coached team with an outstanding quarterback. I know Jamey Chadwell will have his team ready to go, and we’re working hard to prepare to share the field with them. I think we are all grateful for the chance to give the players on both teams another chance to play football this weekend.”
It’s been a very uncertain season, especially for an independent squad like BYU. But this game gives the Chanticleers a meaningful game late in the season with big implications, as BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe points out.
“Earlier in the year, we kind of foresaw that something like this could happen, not really knowing what it would look like,” Holmoe said Thursday in a Zoom meeting with local and national reporters on the call. “The only reason we have open dates is we couldn’t find games. We found 10 games and that was it, (the) door was closed. … It was just fortuitous how the puzzles all pieced together (and) that it is such a good team that we’re playing.”
BYU is a 10.5-point favorite for the matchup. The total is set at 62 points.
