Speaker 2: Brett always bringing the hammer.
Speaker 1: Kalanie Sataki addressed the media in preparation for the TCU game.
Texas Tech is in the past, now moving forward now
as we all should. Let's get into the sound bites.
This was Kalani from yesterday. This is his opening statement
in matchup for TCU this Saturday.
Speaker 3: Yeah, onto the next game, obviously, you know, having time
to reflect on the game and learn from the film
against Texas Tech.
Speaker 4: Proud of our heart.
Speaker 3: The guy's played obviously, didn't didn't do enough to put
ourselves in a position to gain a victory. But I
appreciate the effort and the uh, the the willingness to
be physical, so that that was that was there, but UH,
way too many mistakes for us to be in a
position to come back in that game and and to
put ourselves in a position to have have a right
to earn the victory. But a good opportunity for us
to learn, and so we'll definitely learn from the game.
I've said it before to stay humble and stay hungry,
and uh this is uh Unfortunately, when you experience a
loss like this, it makes it easier to be humble
and hungry, and so we'll we'll bank on that, and
then we'll also bank on the opportunity that we have.
We can still learn from it and and we can
still play better football. I just did feel like we
played our best and that's the worst timing. So that's
my job as a head coach to get these guys
better playing at their best, and uh I try to
get that done this week, looking forward to the matchup
against TCUH. Sending Dyke is a great coach. I've known
him for a long time and and uh you know
he and his wife Kate are awesome, great people and
and and amazing leaders and so uh Sunny's done a
great job with his program, and they're gonna you know,
I'm glad that we get to be at home. It
seems like we haven't been home for a while, So
good to be home. But I know, Uh, Sonny, you
have his team ready to row and and it's.
Speaker 4: Not gonna be easy.
Speaker 3: They are very It's it's a challenge, but I'm glad
we have to be at home and then get ready
for that game Saturday night.
Speaker 4: But you know, looking at what they do.
Speaker 3: Offensive, defensively and special teams, they're tough and they have
tons of athleticism all over the place. Uh their physical
team too, and so this is going to be a battle.
We have to take advantage of all the time that
we have a prep for them, and looking forward to
match up, you know, and and looking forward to bouncing
back from this from this kind of this bad taste
that we have from from the last game. But uh,
I say that saying that that Texas Tech did a
great job. They're one of the best teams in the country,
and you know, we're looking forward to to being better
than we were last week and doing that against TCU.
They have great coaching staff too. You see that Kendall
Les has done a great job of the offense, and
then Andy's done a great job. Andy a Ovolos done
a great job of the defense. And the quarterback we
recognize him from before we played against him.
Speaker 4: And you know he can get after you.
Speaker 3: He throws the ball, so I'm thrown for almost twenty
seven hundred yards and an effective runner, and he can
hurt you in a lot of different ways, and he
has weapons all over the place. And defensively they get
after you too, so they can make things really really
difficult for us, and we're gonna have to be at
our best at to earn the victory and looking forward
to improving from last week to this weekend. So what
questions you guys have for me?
Speaker 2: Brat?
Speaker 1: That was Kolonie Sataki's opening statement. Your takeaway from the
opening statement. Klani never leaves any stone unturned when it
comes to the opening statements.
Speaker 5: No, he doesn't.
Speaker 6: It's very clear though that they are not over this
Texas Tech loss, and nor should they be. But what
I find interesting, and this will be a little bit
of a tease for the rest of the sound we're
about to listen to. Is even Russians that are not
necessarily asked about mistakes and mishaps against TCU, he brings
some of those things up. And even after he had
moved on to talking about TCU, he went back and said,
like this team, this loss left a bad taste.
Speaker 5: In our mouth from what happened at Texas Tech.
Speaker 6: And I think there's some people who could look at
that and say this team needs to be focused moving
on to the next thing. But for me, I look
at it and I say, I hope they're so fired up,
they're so angered, and they're so fueled up from this
loss that when TCU comes to town. A TCU team
that's a a good ball team. They beat SMU early
in the season, they played a close game with I
was State. Last week, they put up forty two against Baylor.
They this is a good TCU team. I hope they
come into Lavella Edwards Stadium and BAU makes them look
like a shell of themselves. Not because I have any
ill will towards TCU respect Sonny dikes a Ton. I
think Josh Hoover is a solid quarterback, but I think
this needs to be a statement win for BYU because
look again, TCU is not the team that you're gonna be,
and everyone around the country is gonna say, oh, BYU
is legit. But I think for the fan base, I
think for your mentality as a football team, CCU needs
to show up to your place and remember whose place
it is. And there may be TCU fans, pundits, radio
hosts over there in Texas saying, hey, BYU may be
licking their wounds after what happened against Texas Tech. This
is a win where TCU could run in and spoil
their season. I hope that's the thought coming in. And
I hope because BYU is still thinking so much about
this Texas Tech loss that they use all that anger
and raids that they have pointed at Texas Tech and
it gets taken out on the Texas Tech or the Tech,
the TCU team just a couple miles east of Love.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this dame definitely could get that way, and I've
stated it and I'm gonna stay by it. If you
want to show the world and prove to yourself, then
you need to go out there and do that for yourself,
but also will prove to the world of Showcase.
Speaker 2: Put belt to booty.
Speaker 1: Do the Iowa State not like the Iowa State game
in particular. Don't fall behind and have to come back,
but make a statement.
Speaker 7: Win.
Speaker 2: Go out there and win like what Utah did to Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: Again.
Speaker 1: I know people aren't gonna like me bringing up that
dominate the game, and it doesn't necessarily have to be
like a forty one to seventeen. Go out there and
beat them thirty one to zero. Shut him out, Go
out there, beat them thirty five to three. Prove and
show that Look, BYU isn't the same team as last year.
They're not gonna, you know, lose to in a row
and then miss a taititle game. They're gonna control their
own destiny because you do.
Speaker 4: So.
Speaker 1: I agree josh Uver is a good quarterback. Just to
learn more and more about him. And look, tomorrow and
Thursday and Friday will have people that cover the TCU
horn Frogs.
Speaker 2: It will join the program.
Speaker 1: But look, he's completed two hundred nineteen taps pass attempts,
but to excuse me, on three hundred and thirty five attempts,
he's got eight into sew options. He has just around
twenty seven hundred passing yards is he's at two thousy
six hundred and ninety. He's thrown for twenty three touchdowns
and then he's run for another two. So it's not
a guy that likes to run. He will use his
legs if he needs to. But look, I mean when
you look at his rushing going back to the North
Carolina game.
Speaker 2: Josh Hoop's a pocket passer.
Speaker 1: I'll just break down the numbers going starting the season
off one to ten for three yards in the Abilene
Christian game, did not run at all. Smu A for
twenty seven, Arizona State nine for minus thirty eight.
Speaker 2: Obviously he takes sacks into that.
Speaker 1: The sack numbers count towards rushing yards, which I feels
think are dumb, but it is what it is. Colorado
eight of twenty, Kansas State five for minus three, Baylor
two for minus two, West Virginia two for minus three,
and then Iowa State one for eleven. So Josh Hoover
does not get outside the pocket. So that's something I
know that it has to be on the scating report
this week. Brett is, Look, this guy wants to stand in,
he wants to throw the football.
Speaker 2: It's not Rocko Beck Rocko Beck will take off and run.
Speaker 1: But the last time we see b you faced really
a pocket passing quarterback. The last couple of times the
defense has gotten home, Barren Morton.
Speaker 2: Rock Gobeck.
Speaker 1: The defense has been disruptive, Brett. When you stand in
the pocket against the BYU and you want to pass
the football.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how BYU handles Texas
Techs offensive line. I'm watching some IWA some of the
Iowa State game right now, So look, this is this
is a good TCU team, and we're gonna talk a
lot about them and what they like to do and
what they don't like to do. But honestly, my hope
is when we're sitting here next Monday, we say, man,
everything we thought TCU was gonna do got thrown out
the window because BYU just basically had no respect for
them the way they play defense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna find out sooner rather than later. Let's
get back to the sound. Kalani Sataki from Monday's Meat
Availability Klanie, you mentioned in your opening statement you brought
up the film. Were there any positives in that film review?
If so, what were they, Kilani?
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of positives.
Speaker 3: I mean, I probably can some of us that were
We're a physical team and and they they brought the
physicality to us. And I thought we responded the right way.
We just didn't make enough plays. And I think they
took advantage of the opportunities that they had we didn't,
you know, so I think in all three phases we
wanted to play compromary football. They did it, we didn't.
And then even when we had an opportunity after halftime
to make it come back and try to find ways
to get back in its way, you can't. You have
to start the game faster, and you have to start
right from the beginning.
Speaker 4: And you know, they they were not gonna let.
Speaker 3: Us come back from in that game, and they've seen
enough of that in the film, and so we we
when we tried to get momentum and try to get
back in it, it just wasn't there. But I mentioned before,
the effort was there. Our guys, they work hard. We've
got to play smarter and we got to play better
in the situation football. And you know, they're a really
good team, but there's a there's things that we can
do to help ourselves. And I don't think you can
make up the difference in and play, but you know,
we got to be finding ways to put positive plays together.
I thought, you know, we we we tackled well on
defense and for the most part, made plays, got some stops,
and we just put we just if you're looking at
the game, that the average starting position did not go
in our favor. We weren't able to flip the field ever.
And you know, it's a bad time to shank a punt,
and and and we shank a couple of them, and
so that that didn't help us in our field position. Uh,
the turnovers didn't help us, and in a lot of
different ways. And and when it's all said and done,
we normally do that to people, don't They don't usually
do that to us. And we're three zero deficit of
the turnover margin, and and then they get out. They
got after us. I thought at the beginning we could.
We had some really good things stuff in the run
and then and then too, you know, muff punt, bad timing,
all that stuff played into it. But you know, the
guys kept believing, they kept fighting, and and now we'll
see if that belief can carry on to this next week.
I believe the guys are embarrassed by that that game,
and I believe that they're gonna they're gonna be coming
in and here ready to work today, and I bank
on it.
Speaker 4: That's that's the type of guys that they are.
Speaker 2: Brett.
Speaker 1: That comment right there is why I'm extremely confident that
BA is gonna win this game on Saturday. The guys
are embarrassed by that. Look, he just said the coaching staff,
he said the guys. It's talking about the players, now, guys.
He could loop it in the coaching staff, right, But look,
these guys are proven that they can go get a
head coaching job at the P four level. They're good,
They've gone out to recruit some of the best talent.
They built themselves up. I'm not saying that that's what
Kalanie's not. He's not denying accountability, bred But when he
says the guys are embarrassed by that performance and they're
gonna come ready to work, that lets me know, because
we're gonna hear from Carcarryan. I'm gonna tease it, but
carcon Ryan use the words I am poed.
Speaker 2: They're not happy, and they're still, like you said, still stuck.
Speaker 1: On this, and I hope you can use that as
motivation because a lot of people don't sit on the
past dwell on it. It's bad for your mental health.
And no, no, no, no, no, it's all about how you use
it as motivation. If you look at this of yeah,
tcu'd TCU beat us in twenty twenty three. Ooh, and
we lost that game in twenty twenty three. That happened
and then it started to unravel and in Texas tech
not ain't happening.
Speaker 2: And y'all got to catch this ale.
Speaker 1: If you use that as motivation and you go out
there and take care of business, look at can motivate you.
And that's why I think you might be able to
win this game by two scores. Because tz, they're coming
off a loss, they're hungry, but look, I don't think
you're the angry dog in the fight.
Speaker 2: They had their lunch money taken from them like.
Speaker 1: It was big brother taking little brother behind the shed,
and you know what, and that's what was happening. So Brett,
that last line is really telling of the guys were embarrassed.
Speaker 6: Some of that statement that he just gave that felt
like pieces of that came from a real conversation he
had with this football team after that game. And what
I find most cinerizing about that bit in particular is
what was the question Ron? The question was what positive
take boy, do you have this game? And then we
hear from Kilane hopefully this is this is this is
like hopefully this is embarrassing. He's talking about the shanks
on the punts. He's asked about the positive takeaways, Ron,
and he is still thinking about areas where they made mistakes,
And obviously I think he's he's taking those as ways
that they can get better, in ways that they can
get they can improve.
Speaker 5: But they are.
Speaker 6: Super focused, super honed in thinking very deeply about what
happened to this team on Saturday, even amidst like, oh, like,
I just don't think Kilani's in the mood of like, oh,
we'll take moral victories. What are the good things that
we can take away from this game? No, no, no, no,
this was a this was a behind the woodshed type
of experience, and we are in no way under selling that,
and we are using that as motive to never get
embarrassed again. But I and this isn't the last time
that this happens in this media availability. But it once
again like Kalana is asked about one thing and is
talking about the disappointments and the things that were a
little bit of a letdown in this Texas Tech game.
So they are focused on certainly the right things and
they are in no way overlooking or under selling or
just you know, moving on like they are. They are
for sure carrying a chip on their shoulder from this
game one hundred percent.
Speaker 2: And let me give you a weird stack too.
Speaker 1: That was put out and it just got retweeted from
Ben's profile. Jim Jordan put this out six minutes ago,
reminder that BAU football is twelve in all the time
when ESPN ESPN excuse me, Stormy by Tony is the
sideline reporter on the broadcast the TV broadcasts. Well, guess
what do you know who's on the call Brent on Saturday.
It's Stormy.
Speaker 6: It's Stormy and I dude, Stormy loves coming to BU.
She loves a couple of times about this, She's like, dude,
I was sexing her a couple of months ago, asking her,
like what boy games she was doing. She's like, dude,
I hope we get BOYU every week because She's like,
I love coming to dupe games at Boyu, and clearly
we love when Stormy comes to do games at b
YU because when she does b YU wins and is undefeated.
Speaker 2: One hundred percent local.
Speaker 1: Uh, she's local in Las Vegas here on the West coast,
I think, and correct me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 2: Dave Film, Dave Fleming and Brock Oswelder, are they on
the call?
Speaker 5: That is the crew? I don't crew, that's the crew
that she's with.
Speaker 2: Check you check.
Speaker 5: So I'm assuming that she's with that. So she is
on that.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, because caause no, she's on that crew with that,
you know. And look, Brock has a good time coming.
I think we caught up with Brock and Big twelve
many days. Look, people like interviewing BYU. They like Kilane,
so it works. But let's get back to the sound
number three. Kilane getting off. The slow starts have been
an issue for the offense. Is it that a matter
of execution or is that another issue?
Speaker 2: Per You.
Speaker 3: Mean there wasn't all slow starts. I mean there's some
games that we did score first. So I think to
generalize it like that on one game is not correct.
Speaker 4: I think as a team.
Speaker 3: We need to start faster, you know, and just you
can put a lot of the attention on the offense.
But we won games because the offense too. We got
in one game because the special teams, and we want
games because defense. So we need all three phases to work. Well,
that's my job. I think when it started, you don't
have to score in every drive. But I think to
start the game off, I think we punted and we
shanked it.
Speaker 4: That's not a good way to start the game.
Speaker 3: And then defense got on the field and force them
turn some negative yardage. And looking at it, I mean
we were we're in a good spot, and then we
dropped the punt, and so that that's so the fast
start wasn't really anything of an issue. Not everybody scores
on the first drive, you know what I mean, sometimes
that happens, but you can if you look at the
start right from the beginning, the bad punt was an issue,
and so that's not the offense's fault. Sometimes the offense
ad a good drive is punting the ball flipping the field.
So that didn't help us in our average starting position
and field position, and then and then dropping the punt
didn't help us either. So that puts right then from
that first series, the first few minutes we were putting
a pad spot and then you know, I mean, I
think we're down ten zero and they still had negative
yards rushing.
Speaker 4: So then then it was about the big plays that
we gave up.
Speaker 3: And when it's all said and done, had a good stop,
went into halftime and thought we were in a good play,
good good position, forced a three and out a punt
in the first drive of the second half, and you
could see that we were getting gaining some momentum. And
then and then it just kind of went to a
stop and and and those things are I mean, you
tell me you can we fix catches and drop passes
and can we fix better execution. Those are things that
we're gonna work on and that'll get us. You can't
you can't have those lack of opportunities and missed assignments
and and mistakes against great teams and expect to be
in it in the end. So well, we're very aware
of what the what the the deficiencies are. And then
we just got to get get to him and I
got to do a better job making sure that we
play us more sound at the beginning and every play matters,
especially when you talk about putting together stacking plays at
the beginning.
Speaker 4: Of the game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, they didn't stack plays at the beginning of
the game, and you look them up.
Speaker 2: Punt didn't happen. He's right.
Speaker 1: He said this in the last sound by number two
before he got to the number three. They normally do
do that to other teams. Now, normally they're saying block
people into people. But Parker he had time before the
defender got there. He just took his eye off the
ball trying to run, and when he did, it hit
him in the chest. I don't know why he catches
the ball right there at to chess. A lot of people,
from what I've heard, don't like how Parker catches the ball.
Speaker 2: That high right there.
Speaker 1: Look, it's difficult to catch these these punts and these balls.
I invite anybody to go out there on the drug
machine and try in pads or without pass first of all,
then put it in pads to up the pressure, and
then do it with someone running full speed at you.
Speaker 2: Look.
Speaker 1: So I know people don't like how it is. I
don't know why he does that. It works best for
the returner. You can't tell them what to do and
what not to do. But you can't tell him, don't
take your eyes off of it and look normally BYU
doesn't make those, you know, miscues, other people make those miscues.
They're able to flip the field on other people. But yeah,
the punk coming off the side of the leg, that happens.
But to me, it's more about that Parker muffed the
punt rather than the punk coming off the side of
leg because with the way the defense was playing Brett,
you can overcome that. You couldn't overcome putting him in
the red zone because you put your defense right back
on the field after they just got done.
Speaker 2: That's when the defense gets tired.
Speaker 6: I don't think that it's fair to characteristic characterize this
game as all. They had a slow start. If you
look at the first play of the game LJ. Martin
first game, first play pops off or I guess, second
play of the game pops off for what is it
eleven twelve yards? Like what happened was the following set?
It downs right after that they go through three and
out because they run this weird screen non screen where
all the offensive linemen like dropped down into like chop block.
I don't know what the play was. And even still,
Texas Tech made a good play on the ball. That
was your first drive, and then we know you're about
to get the ball back Parker mussed the punt. I
don't want to say that's where things went wrong. I
still think BYU loses this game, whether or not Parker
muffs that punt. I think it's much closer. But I
think struggling on your first possession the way they did
was fine because they were at least getting a push
on the offensive line. But then when Parker muffed the punt,
the problem then became. Texas Tech sucked all the air
out of BYU's lungs. They were able to go down
and get points. And then I'm trying to remember the
drive right after that. Offensively, was that the one where
Will Farren missed I can't remember if that was the
one where Will Farren missed the kick.
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think the offensive game.
Speaker 6: Plan was great because it played exactly into what Texas
Tech wanted BYU to do. And so I don't think
it's fair to characterize this because oh, we'll be all
you lost because they had a slow start.
Speaker 5: I don't think they had a slow start.
Speaker 6: I think they just had some unfortunate mistakes that really
just took all the air out of the building. And
they've had other games where they had slow I mean,
you could probably after the first touchdown characterized Iowa State
as a technically a slow start because they didn't score a.
Speaker 5: Lot after that until they got into the second half.
Speaker 6: Like, this is a BYU team that up to this
point in the season has been able to play from behind.
The problem is you can do that against everybody unless
they're one of the top ten teams in the country
and potentially a top five team of the country, which
I do believe Texas Tech is the way BYU had
one games to this point in the season worked for them.
Playing that game the same way, especially when you made
a couple of mistakes early, was never going to work
against sexistec.
Speaker 1: Yeah, never was gonna work. You really can't do that.
That's that hurts you, and it hurt b what you
no doubt about it. And if you try that going
forward against teams that are better or teams that know
how to capitalize on taking advantage of those mistakes, it's
gonna bite you once again in the bosom. You don't
want to get You don't want the burden in the
bosom in a bad way. You want to in a
good way to fire you up and that bill you
goes out and they take care of business and they
get that w BTCU. You're back on the right track.
You get some of that moments and back. So we'll

dot Com. Tell them that Ben crital Cincha, Ben crital
Centria at game Day Men's Health dot Com. Okay, Brett
Sialia Sarah. He addressed the media as well yesterday. Let's
get into some sound bites. Start with number one, sal,
how frustrating is it when the defense is having the game,
it's having holding the opponent, and you know you could
have won that game, but you didn't come out with
the victory.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, no, no one wants to lose, you know,
And uh it was just frustrating to lose, you know.
And uh so the defense, the the defense, we we
could have one better. And there's a there's there's a
lot of places, especially myself, I know that I could
have done better as well. And if if we just
if if we if we held them, if we didn't
have any points on the board, the game would have
been completely completely different. So like and I felt like
we could have picked up the momentum and we could
have the offense could have fed off us and then
we could have fed off the offense as as vice
versa in that sense, and then we could have I
felt like the ball game could have been completely different,
but unfortunately we did We did. Uh, we did lose,
and so no one wants to losing. It's and yeah,
it was. It was pretty frustrating.
Speaker 1: Buying or selling Brad Hammer that the defense could have
played better? Was Sarah saying, he's not gonna throw the
offense under the bus. But are you buying that? Could
they have honestly played better than what they did. I
thought the defense played as best as they could have.
Speaker 6: So everything that fans are about to listen to right now,
I'm telling you, it's just a PR master.
Speaker 5: Class, and it's a teammate master class.
Speaker 6: Shout out to shout out tons. They are in no
way going to throw the offense. And not only are
they not going to throw the offense under the bus,
they are not going to throw any of the blame
to the offense at all.
Speaker 5: Because that's what.
Speaker 6: Great teammates, that's what great leaders do is they take
accountability even if it's not necessarily their fault, because you
know what, let's say, obviously we believe.
Speaker 5: That it is the offense's fault.
Speaker 6: But it doesn't benefit anyone for the defense to say, yeah,
they screwed up.
Speaker 5: Why would they say that in public?
Speaker 6: They don't need to say that to us. And even
if they also they don't feel that way. The defense
knows and believes like, we could have done more to
swing this game in our favor. Could they have done everything?
Could they have won the ballgame for byu? No? But
again that's what great leaders, great teammates, great ballplayers, that's
what they do is they take accountability on the chin. Look,
are there more plays that the defense could have made?
Speaker 5: Sure?
Speaker 6: I'm to be honest, I think there's certain times that well,
I think there's a lot of times this pass rush
when they don't have Jack Kelly or Isaiah Glasker coming
to help out on the pass rush, they think struggle
to get home. And so from that standpoint, I think
that the defense could be better. They were a player too,
where I think be what you could have come away
with an interception, But all those things considered still would
not have won byu the ballgame. But shout out to
the defense for being willing to take all the blames
that the offense doesn't have to shoulder. That's great teammates too.
Speaker 2: That's what great teammates doing. Deep Bratt, I agree with you.
Speaker 1: Look, it's not gonna You're not gonna get them caught. Look,
we have to ask the questions right, and it is
probably frustrating. But again, my mom always says to me, boy,
you revel your your business in public. Everybody will and
a mom will know, and you won't have anything to
hold anybody accountable to behind closed doors. Keep your personal
business personal and private, and keep your hands to your sale.
That's what she would say. Look, that is meant for
the locker room. The locker room knows that they let
them down and they don't need to tell us that,
and they just need to go out there and showcase it.
But look, sure maybe the defense could have held them
to zero, but I mean it, that might be unrealistic
expectations with how good this this this Texas Tech offense
is and this conference. But sisera doing the right thing,
not gonna do that. Number two, will you take a sack?
Will you take a sack here and you you take
sacks out. Excuse me, you're giving up about two hundred
yards on the ground. Is that sustainable or do you
feel that number needs to come down a little bit?
Speaker 8: I feel like the better we can perform, the better
that number will be. You know, and there's there's there's
really not a nothing bad and and and continue to
get better in that sense for for those yards.
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, you work hard, that number will come down.
Speaker 2: That's how it goes.
Speaker 1: You stop the you take out sacks, You just limit
the run and then that number will slowly but surely
start to go. Number three, what do you attribute the
second half defensive performances you guys have been able to
put up recently.
Speaker 8: Is more so just staying true to what we know
and to stay true and what we do is a defense,
and to not let up. You know, our our coaches
teach us well and they they do their job and
helping us become better, and they set the game plan
for us, and we just got to go out and execute,
and we do that and everything will be good.
Speaker 1: You do, got to go out and execute. And look,
the defense has been phenomenal in the second half. Jay Hill
has been able to make adjustments. Look at the Iowa
State game. First half wasn't working, scrap it, try something new,
and then the second half look lit Rockebeck and that
Iowa State offense.
Speaker 2: So it's possible. So yeah, b a U's defense.
Speaker 1: Look whether they've had great first half or second half,
it doesn't really matter. The point is that the adjustments
get made and they're able to go out and ball out.
So you've seen that, and look Bo's defense. It is
the strength of the team, no doubt about it. And
then of course I'll probably say second the run game
of LJ. Martin a number four. Two years ago, you
had a breakout performance against TCU, kind of your introductory
to college football. What do you remember about that game
as you look back at.
Speaker 8: It, Yeah, being able to look back, you know we
did we unfortunately we did lose. I was able to
secure an interception and also as well, played my first
downs of college football and it was an amazing experience
just to be out there on the field. But this Saturday,
you know, it'd be great to get that win, that win.
Speaker 1: As well, So be great to get the win. That's
what they're focused on. A double will be nice. It
would be able to go back and take over. I
remember when I interviewed Tree Alexander a few months ago,
he says, when we line up with Iowa State, for
those stuners that weren't here, we got to see them.
We gotta get that look back. I know this is
probably how they feel. Especially there are a bunch of
guys that were still in this team in twenty twenty
three that lost the TCU in that game. They're looking
to get that back for Darius lash Er, Jacob Robinson,
Keaton Slow was a bunch of people. So we'll see
what happens in the coming days. Number five cel like
Kline said, this a bunch, you're gonna circle the wagon.
What does that mean to you and how that manifests
itself this week and in the TCU.
Speaker 8: Just just to trust and trusting everyone around us, you know,
just to to go back to what we know what
we need to do, going back to the basis, going
back to the little things, doing little things, and to
to practice harder and just to make up those little things,
make up for those little things that we that we
need to do better on and as well as as
and as well as the big things as well. But
to ultimately just to keep our head down, stay humble.
You know, this loss is unfortunate, but we still got
to move on. We gotta play the next down, play
the next game. And so we just got to keep
working more. Uh got to keep working hard and and
do more in that sense of uh not wanting to
experience this sense of the sense of loss as we
we from last week.
Speaker 1: When you win, it all comes back to being glorious
and and and great. It's joyful. So that's how you
get back, is you get back with the with the win.
Now number six, let's get you out of here on this.
Jack Kelly had a game in the Saturday loss. He
was monstrous with sacking the quarterback. What have you learned
from that performance? And what makes Jack so good at
what he does?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 8: He he he's also he's a great leader, and he
knows his defense inside now and so be able to
be there ask him questions and get his insight on
things that as he's played, as he's played a lot
of college football, that that can help me. And so
I'm able to pick his brain about a couple of
things on the defense and as well as what moves
to make and uh and how to get better in
UH on that field, and so it's it's an amazing
uh uh. I asked to have him next to me
and able to ask him for advice and things like that.
Speaker 2: Ask him for advice. That's what you do.
Speaker 1: Jack going to the league, no doubt gonna be playing
on Sundays. Him and Isaiah Glasker both got to pick
the brain I believe can get there as well. So
Jack Kelly is one of the leaders on this team,
rightfully so, and has been balling out when he's healthy.
Speaker 2: You saw it.
Speaker 1: He even mentioned it yesterday when we played this sound Look,
my legs felt like they were back under me. So
Jack was out there balling. But guys, that was your

the Fan Hotline and welcome in our first guest of
the program. She needs no introduction. They brought home the
Big Twelve title. I remember when they were in the
championship game two years ago. I thought they would get
it done. They got their revenge. They made sure they
brought it back. All she does is win games, go
to semi finals in the College Cup, the semi the
College Cup finals, and now she has her first Big
Twelve title. Please, ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome in BYU
women's soccer coach Jen Rockwood. Coach, thanks for joining me today.
Speaker 9: Hey wow, thank you for having me.
Speaker 10: Appreciate it and appreciate all you guys support of our program.
Speaker 1: Of course, first Big Twelve title for the program.
Speaker 2: I had said this a few years ago.
Speaker 1: I said, look, if there's any program that would get
a championship in this first year, in its first couple,
it's Jen Rockwood in the BA women's soccer program.
Speaker 10: Man.
Speaker 2: Of course, Dilg Taylor. I was like, did you talk
about goats of goats? Coach, just take us through. What
did it feel like to be able to raise that trophy?
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was amazing. Actually, you mentioned bil G. I
told her before the week.
Speaker 10: That I wanted to we wanted a trophy like she has,
so I wanted to follow her lead. But yeah, just
an amazing journey for our team this whole season, particularly
last week, you know, going in to play TCU and
knowing what we had to get through to get to
that championship game.
Speaker 9: I'm so proud of this team.
Speaker 10: I have an amazing staff that has helped bring everybody
to being their best, and you have to be. It
is the best season of Big Twelve I think has
ever had. We've got eight teams that are ranked in
the RPI, eight teams that were seated in the instantly tournament.
To win the whole thing was quite an accomplishment for
our program and for all of our great players.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is an accomplishment. The Big Twelve is one
of the premier soccer conferences in college. It's no joke.
It's it's physical, right. I've been there with the guys
and so and I've covered all of these games. And
to go on the run that you guys did, what
do you attribute that to? You get a victory over TCU,
it had been a while, You get the getback against Baylor,
and then you rectify the win against Kansas.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, we've just we've had a great season,
and we had a high expectations. Our expectation was to
win the tournament and win the conference this year. And
you know, we got off to a fantastic non conference start,
one of the toughest non conference schedules in the country.
Speaker 9: We were ranked tenth in the country, and then.
Speaker 10: We started having some injuries that just, you know, kind
of kept us back a little bit. We started conference
play with a loss to Arizona State without our two
center backs, and you know, we've just had lots of different.
Speaker 9: Injuries and people playing new.
Speaker 10: Positions, different positions, people off the bench becoming starters, and
we were just good enough to believe that we could.
Speaker 9: Win every game when we slept on the.
Speaker 10: Field and and and just maybe not mature or experience
enough to find ways to win those games. And so
it was kind of that up again, down again a
season conference for US, conference season for US, and we
just kept believing and we just knew we had it
in this.
Speaker 9: We knew we hadn't played our best soccer yet.
Speaker 10: We knew we had played some really amazing soccer, just
couldn't find some results. And so, you know, when things
kind of went south for US against UCF. We knew
we had to beat Utah to even have a chance
to get into the tournament, and so I think everybody
just locked in, knew that what we were capable of,
and we've just been writing the momentum since.
Speaker 9: That Utah game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you definitely have been riding that momentum since the
Utah game.
Speaker 2: I felt like that was a turn.
Speaker 1: I saw Kansas catch fire last year, and you guys
caught that same fire after more. And there's a certain person.
You know her well better than I do. You've watched
it for a while, but my goodness, I knew. I
knew Elie Wahlberg was good, but my goodness, yeah, she's
this good. Every goal that she squad is like, can
that make center top? And she kept out doing it.
Speaker 9: She really did.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 10: Ellie obviously had an acl last year, couldn't play and
had to lead from the sidelines and did a fantastic job.
Speaker 9: And you know, when you're away from the.
Speaker 10: Game for nine ten months, it's tough, and you know,
she she got off to a little bit of a
rocky start. It wasn't going as smoothly as she wanted,
and she just kept fighting, just kept Pierce persevering, and
she knew, we all knew she had it in her,
and you could see her gradually gain her confidence back,
could gradually see some balls goals falling for her. But then,
my goodness, she just went on a streak of bangers
left and right and even from thirty yards out, you know,
for the game winner. So she definitely has a green
light to shoot whenever and from wherever she wants. But
just so proud of her. It's been a long fight
and a tough journey for her. But I know she's
loving this game, loving this team, and I think she's
got some more great goals in front of her.
Speaker 2: She definitely does.
Speaker 1: Just a reminder for the fans acase miss the BYU
women Soccer picked to be a fifth seed in the tournament. Coach,
you guys taking on Utah statea familiar folle this Saturday,
seix pm at Southfield.
Speaker 10: Yeah, we're excited, you know, manny at Utah State has
just done a phenomenal job with Utah State, obviously a
ranked team last year, had their best program ever and
then they come back and won again in their Mountain
West Conference, and so we'll play them on Southfield. They're
a tough team. We played them earlier this season. They
always bring their best. It's always a tough game when
you play some of these in state schools because you're
very familiar with them.
Speaker 9: So we're really looking forward.
Speaker 10: We're proud to be an incubul A tournament again and
ready to roll.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I like you're side of the bracket too, not trying
to look ahead at all. But if you guys win,
I think you guys can get matched up again with UCLA,
who you also played earlier in the year.
Speaker 9: Yeah, lots of familarity for sure. If we can get
past Utah State.
Speaker 10: You know, UCLA as a four seat, has to play Pepperdine.
Pepperdine is a tough team. They usually always get some
wins and the instably tournaments, So anything can happen, obviously
in this first round.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anything can. That's the nature of the tournament. That's
why I love postseason sports. Anything can happen and stories
are written and made. But I want to focus one
more time on the Utah State. You played them earlier.
They you know the saying it's always tough to beat
a two yeah team twice, But you guys are playing
so well right now. In that back line and defense
is locked in. I don't think that's going to be
an issue.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, that's something that we really focused on.
She even prior to the Utah game, was our defensive
energy and our commitment to defend, and that's you know,
defense wins championships, defense wins big games. And our back
line has really come together. You know, Prestley went down.
We hope she can maybe play on Friday, but we
have other players who have stepped up. We will have
Batchi back. We think this this weekend as well. So yeah,
we've got to defend well. They're a good attacking team.
They outshot us the first time that we played him
earlier in the season. But our defense is really locked
in and we've proven to score goals in lots of
different ways.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with to hope you get Pressley Freeman back.
She's great in the back line on one of the
elite you have multiple but one of your lead defensive
players that you have in the backfield. Speaking of defense, look,
Peyton Collins is playing amazing and it's unfortunate what happened
with Peyton, and you know, wish her well in the recovery.
I know she'll be back. But then Chelsea Peterson the
story behind that. Just take us through that, like what
did you do?
Speaker 2: Just you found her? And I'm like, okay, So they
got multiple aces in net.
Speaker 9: Absolutely. You know, we're very fortunate that Chelsea's with us.
Quick story.
Speaker 10: You know, she she played up at Utah obviously and
went on a mission and when she came back, she
she wanted to come to b YU, but we already
had a full goalkeeper unit and just didn't have a spot,
just didn't have any room to add to the roster,
and so she decided to just come to b YU.
Speaker 9: So we knew she was a student here at b YU.
Speaker 10: And I got a call a couple of days before
season started that our starting keeper Lynette had just gotten
married and she was taking a step back from soccer
and maybe retiring.
Speaker 9: Wasn't sure that she's going to play again, And so I.
Speaker 10: Made a phone call to Chelsea on Monday, and by
Tuesday she was at practice and has just done an
unbelievable job for us and got the call to go
in when Peyton got hurt and has just been brilliant.
You know, Peyton has her surgery today, so she's going
to be on the mend getting back the Chelsea's come
in and has played probably one of the best keeper
performances I've seen in that Kansas game, especially those last
fifteen minutes. So Chelsea is a big reason why we
were able to stay strong and get results in the
Big twelve tournament.
Speaker 1: Yeah, big save after big save, and you mentioned and
I remember that one in particular. She doesn't make that
save on the right side coaches the tip ballgame on
ot maybe.
Speaker 2: And she was able to seal it for you. How
big was that save in that moment?
Speaker 9: It was huge. You know, we were protecting a one
zero lead.
Speaker 10: We can't of this so strong offensively, and they were
coming at us and we were getting a little shell shocked,
and we really relied on our back line, but particularly
Chelsea to make some big, huge saves, both on shots
and on corner kicks and some set pieces.
Speaker 9: So, you know, lots lots of praise for Chelse.
Speaker 1: You just may have gotten back to your coach, but
you might not have heard it. But I was at
the basketball game on Saturday. I put obviously by letting
you guys during the game, but then afterwards.
Speaker 2: Kevin Young in his opening statement.
Speaker 1: Gave a shout out to you g Taylor, and he
says a lot of good things going on at Boy,
you just wanted you're taking your thoughts on that he
gave you guys a shout out.
Speaker 2: I thought that was really great that he did that.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, Kevin has such a presence now and
he's doing such an amazing job and a national brand
now and just everybody's talking and everybody's excited about basketball.
Speaker 9: So appreciate his support of.
Speaker 10: Our women's teams here and obviously a lot of people
listened to him, so certainly appreciate that. Excited for his
season and the men's basketball team, I know everybody's just
hyped to get going with this group. So yeah, I
appreciate that someone sent me a clip of announcing our
championship in the Marriott Center, and so again that's awesome.
Speaker 9: Cougarnation is so supportive of our program.
Speaker 10: You know, more than the stadium was full at Baylor
for the championship game for Cougar fans.
Speaker 9: And so it was just really fun to celebrate with everybody.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kugarnation is so supportive.
Speaker 1: Look, I mean, you guys have sell out after sell
out at Southfield I project and predict another sellout.
Speaker 2: Will be this riding Friday for sure.
Speaker 1: For you guys, what do you contrue this momentum in
BYU Athletics. I mean Tom Holmwood did such a great
job and how you got Brian Santiago. It's continuing to thrive.
If you look at athletics to me, big t I
mean BYU to me is one of the biggest brands
right now in the Big twelve across all of athletics.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, you know, and we committed to go
to the Big twelve and we've got some resources and support, donors, support,
adminis strade of support. You know, Tom let us in
this direction. Brian has just taken over. Brian was out
our championship game and so he's a huge support for us.
I'm just excited about you know, all of the athletics
here at b YU were all committed to be a
national brand, to be known so the people know who
we are, what we stand for, why we're a little
bit different, and why we could excel at the highest
level in what we love doing. So excited about the
sports here this fall with everything going off. You know,
football's killing it, Basketball is getting started. Cross country is
always killing it, and volleyball is doing really well too,
So we try and start Cooper Sports off on the
right foot in the fall and let it continue on
with everybody else in the winter.
Speaker 1: In the spring, well, it definitely has been continuing in
the right direction.
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're a.
Speaker 1: Fan of BYU athletics, any place you turn, you're not
going to be disappointing.
Speaker 2: Coach. I don't want to get ahead of myself, but
you guys.
Speaker 1: Have a lot of moments and right now, look, you know,
I know the expectation is just to win this game,
go for but if the way you guys are playing,
you guys might have a shot to be able to
go all the way.
Speaker 2: I like the way I see this team playing right now.
Speaker 10: We know you're always into the tournament thinking that you know,
you obviously take one one game at a time. But
you know, just last week we beat three ranked teams.
You know, TCU probably would have been a one seed.
Vanderbilt won their PK in the title game and TCU didn't.
You know, so TCU's basically a top five team. You know,
all eight teams in conference are ranked, and so we've
played a really tough schedule for the past two months,
and so I think we're ready. I think it's really
prepared us to make a running in soa way tournament.
We love that we get to play at Southfield for
our first game, and we're just going to keep rolling.
And I think if we believe, great things can happen,
and we expect to win every game.
Speaker 9: Every time we step on the field, we expect to
be our best.
Speaker 1: And the best I believe was Showcase andight just reminded
for the fans all the time, guys, you got to
support the BYU women's soccer team. It's going to be
this Friday, November fourteen, six pm at Southfield Mountain Standard time.
They take on Utah sait in the first round of
the NCAA tournament. Another opportunity for Jinn Rockwood in the

Speaker 1: Everybody always appreciate Coach Rockwood in her time and every
all the efforts. It's really difficult to, you know, compete
for conference championships weekend and week got them, especially when
there's the expectation. Right, Remember last year, this team was
picked I think number three I think in the country. Now,
obviously I lost a bunch of seniors to the draft,
so I knew they weren't number three. But at the
same time, I that's just how it is. The preseason
ranking done based on what you did last year. But
now that they've won the Big Twelve, you know what
would those rinkings look like in the future. But look,
Jen Rockwood is the goat, one of the go coaches
here at BYU. She's the go to women's soccer, has
been really the only coach and she just does phenomenal job.
I mean, to capture Big Twelve title third year, first
year in the Big Twelve, they were in the championship,
didn't get it done right, But then that team went
on to the College semi final.
Speaker 2: That just speaks of the nature. And then dealg Taylor.
Speaker 1: You know what they do over there, you know a
cross country, I mean track and field. It's phenomenal that.
But Jen Rockwood finally gets her Big twelve title. Those
big twelve rings all be coming in. Hopefully we get
to see the reveal. How shiny they look. Ellie Walbrook.
Don't know if Eli Walbrook will come back. I mean
she had put out something I think it was Center
Street media saying, hey, National Championship is coming to BYU
for next year.
Speaker 2: Look the way she was playing. I don't know if
she comes back. We'll see.
Speaker 1: But whether she does or not, Bau's got a good
shot and when they lock in defensively. But again this Friday,
they'll be taking on Utah State at Southfield. You gotta
go support six pm Mountain Standard time. It won't affect
the TCU game. I know people like football, it won't.
