Leipold said it's exciting to sell out the stadium and should be a great environment. He joked they are talking about the weather holding off.
Nevada was a good road win and those are hard to come by. He said they battled and there was no panic from the guys need to get rid of penalties and find a way to jump on one of the five fumbles.
Leipold said it can be one of those days when you can't come up with those fumbles. He gave credit to Nevada because they came out and played hard for an 0-2 team and gave them everything they could.
On the defense they've talked about the Improvement in continuing to be aggressive. Some other guys got a chance to step up and play more and they will need all of those guys as the year goes along.
Rich Miller and Novitsky are on hand as the special guest tonight. Lance complemented them and said they were a big reason for the turnaround.
Skinner had a couple of big catches in Leipold said one of them he ran the wrong route.
Said the offense was good and Daniel's had a solid night going 21-for-27 he said overall the performance was good but they've got to cut back on penalties.
Armaj was called for an ineligible man down field but it was really a communication issue and he didn't know. They have to clean up a couple illegal motion penalties. When you look at the numbers they are still impressive.
Devin Neal is playing very well in his game is getting more complete each week. Getting better in pass protection.
Overall the team is where he likes it to be had a couple early tests that they passed and now you get into conference play. After Saturday the season is a third over. Likes the depth and the way things are coming along.
Leipold said BYU is a national brand program with a consistent winner and will travel well as a fan base. He talked about when he was growing up watching them and all of the NFL quarterbacks they had. They play the game well, they are physical and a balanced team.
Said BYU last week against Arkansas was poised and confident and came away with an impressive win. Expects them to come to Lawrence confident.
