First down: BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall called Monday's practice the best of fall camp to this point. The Cougars worked on two-minute offense, overtime and goal-line situations.

Head-turner: Safety David Tafuna turned in some solid plays, batting the ball away from tight end Dennis Pitta. Andrew George hauled in a couple of nice catches.

Injury report: Offensive lineman Tom Sorensen will undergo diagnostic shoulder surgery next week. Mendenhall is hopeful that Sorensen will be able to contribute at some point this season.
