Steve Young Gives BYU Some Love on 'Big Noon Kickoff'
Former NFL quarterback and BYU alum Steve Young made waves on the "Big Noon Kickoff" pre-game show, sharing his thoughts on the current state of the Cougars football program. While Young praised the team's progress under head coach Kalani Sitake, he also highlighted some areas for improvement.
"It's exciting to see BYU back on the national stage," Young said, "They've got a great program with a ton of talent and they're playing a really tough schedule this year. Kalani's done a fantastic job building this team, and it's clear they're striving for greatness."
However, Young also acknowledged that the team faces challenges moving forward. "They need to find more consistency on both sides of the ball," he explained. "Their defense has been playing really well, but the offense needs to find more rhythm. They're still figuring out who their go-to guys are and how to play together as a unit."
Young emphasized the importance of offensive line play and the need for the Cougars to establish a strong running game. He pointed to the recent success of BYU's running back room as a promising sign for the future.
"They've got some talented backs," he said. "If they can find a way to consistently open up holes for them and give the quarterbacks time to throw, this offense could be explosive."
He concluded his segment with a message of optimism for the Cougars' future. "This team is on the right track," Young said. "They're playing tough competition and learning from each experience. I'm confident they're going to continue to grow and develop into a real force in college football."
Young's comments on "Big Noon Kickoff" demonstrate the continued national interest in BYU football and its potential for success. With a strong coaching staff, a talented roster, and the support of a dedicated fan base, the Cougars appear poised for a bright future.
