Memorial Stadium (Oklahoma)
Baker Mayfield made history. The Oklahoma quarterback became the first Heisman Trophy winner to start his collegiate career as a walk-on.

After one of the worst seasons in BYU history, head coach Kalani Sitake admitted that changes needed to be made. It didn't take long as the program announced Monday morning — two days after defeating Hawaii 30-20 in the final game of the season — that Ty Detmer has been relieved of...
College Football Playoff
There was a lot of changes in the College Football Playoff rankings with the top two teams (Alabama, Miami) losing last week.

Jonny Linehan is making a difference one tweet at a time. The BYU punter has become a household name on social media and is must-follow on Twitter. From cracking jokes about campus life, Provo's "lack of nightlife," dabbing in practice and hilariously photobombing coaches after the game, Linehan has become a...

BYU - Squally Canada
BYU came into Sam Boyd Stadium with a perfect 8-0 record against UNLV, and they weren't going to let that record fall. Led by running back Squally Canada, who has battled injuries all season, the junior rushed for a career-high 213 yards on 25 carries as the Cougars led from start...

College Football Playoff
With no upsets among the top 5 teams last week, there wasn't any surprises among the top teams during the second edition of the College Football Playoff Rankings, but there was plenty of movement after that with several Big 12 schools looking to help the conference avoid missing out...
Ty Detmer may be a Heisman Trophy winner, but his play calls, especially on fourth-down, have been beyond bad. So just how bad has it been this year? Let's let the stats speak for themselves. After Saturday's loss to Fresno State, in which the Cougars were 0-for-2 on fourth downs, BYU...

BYU's Kalani Sitake
After a tough stretch that featured games against LSU, Wisconsin, Boise State, Mississippi State and rival Utah, many expected the Cougars' struggles to disappear going up against lowly East Carolina who came into Saturday's game with just one win on the year.
