UNDEFEATED is clearly possible.
UNGA will show he is an ALL AMERICAN against OKLAHOMA.
QUEST FOR PERFECTION II!
Keep the arrogance a little lower this year. A little less Bocce ball and a little more film should benefit you.
Unga- You just stay healthy and keep doing your thing. Can't wait to see you in action again.
They will not win that game. The trick is make it a respectable enough game so as not to shatter their confidence the way TCU did last year.
I guess you could be right. Oklahoma should be ranked the #1 team in America next fall in my opinion. They return just about their whole offense. Hopefully BYU can hang in there. This game is early in the season, however. Even if the Cougars take a drubbing I think they'll be ok. Avoiding injury will be the key. Key players like Hall, Unga and others will have to stay healthy for the Cougars to be successful. RE: Woody Gaskens to start?? Is he your cousin?
Coach Bronco Mendenhall said that Unga is "probably the most healthy he's been," adding that Unga's play this spring reminds him of the way Unga looked going into his freshman year "when he had what I consider an excellent year. The way he's running and carrying his weight now is more similar to that than it was a year ago."
Unga got fat. He still had plenty of muscle, but he was fat. That was Vakapunas problem, he was fat. Unga could play at the next level if he keeps the fat off.
