CougarCast: BYU vs. Arizona preview

It is game week! The BYU Cougars will face the University of Arizona Wildcats in the 2016 season opener.

Saturday night’s contest features the coaching debuts of BYU’s new head coach Kalani Sitake, offensive coordinator Ty Detmer, and defensive coordinator Ilaisa Tuiaki.

Despite the huge dose of newness, it ways it still seems like 2013. For the 4th season in a row, BYU’s opening game starter at QB is Taysom Hill. Joining him in the backfield will once again be Jamaal Williams.

Meanwhile, Arizona is set to debut an entirely new defense. One that the Wildcats hope will be able to be equal in ability with their high-powered offense.
