BYU STORYLINES• LAST TIME VS. SAN JOSE STATE. BYU lost a heartbreaker to San Jose State the last time the two faced off. Trailing

20-14, BYU grabbed an onside kick with just over two and a half minutes remaining and drove to the SJSU 21-yard line before a sack and fumble secured the win for the Spartans. San Jose State went on to win 11 games that season and finish the season ranked No. 21 in the nation.

• BOWLING. At 6-2, BYU is bowl eligible for the 11th consecutive year; every year under Mendenhall. Entering the 2015 season, BYU was one of only 12 programs to earn a bowl invitation each of the past 10 seasons. BYU is expected to go to either the Las Vegas Bowl or Hawaii Bowl if not selected to a New Year’s Six game.

• STRONG FINISH NOVEMBER. BYU is 30-6 in the month of November under Bronco Mendenhall. The Cougars have gone undefeated in November five times under Mendenhall (‘06, ‘07, ‘09, ‘11, ‘14). After an entire October at home, BYU will be away from home for three of four games in the month of November. A trip to San Jose State is followed by a matchup with Missouri at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. The Cougars play their final home game on Nov. 21 against Fresno State then head north to Logan to finish the regular season with Utah State.

• FRESHMAN PLAYERS. BYU has played the 28 freshmen this season (16 true, 12 redshirts), tied for the third-most in the country. Only Rice (31) and TCU (30) have played more freshman than the Cougars.

Italics=2015 opponent

INDEPENDENCE: YEAR FIVEThe 12-game independent schedule features teams from 10 states and six conferences, including the American Athletic, Big Ten, Pac-12, Mountain West and SEC. BYU has four games scheduled against current Power 5 teams and seven against teams from the Group of 5 conferences. The 12 teams on the schedule had a record of 92-53 in 2014, with eight teams coming off bowl games in 2014.

The Cougars will play six home games, five road contests and one neutral site game in 2015. The home schedule consists of Boise State, UConn, East Carolina, Cincinnati, Wagner and Fresno State. The teams on the home schedule put together a record of 44-23, with four teams reaching bowl games in 2014. The road swing includes a big September with Nebraska, UCLA and Michigan. The Cougars visit San Jose State and Utah State with a game against Missouri at the Kansas City Chief’s stadium in Kansas City, Mo. The road and neutral opponents combined for a 48-30 record in 2014, with four bowl games.

FLAG BEARERSBYU has a tradition of selecting a player before each game to run the team flag and alumni flag. The team selects a former Cougar to carry out the alumni flag, along with the chosen current player who runs out with the current team flag. The team flag has been signed by each member of the team, while the alumni flag has been signed by former BYU payers. In 2011, the team added a special teams flag, donned by a vintage BYU logo adopted by the special teams, following the same protocol as the team flag with an exemplary special teams player being chosen to carry it each week.

Stadium record: 230-69 (.769)2015 stadium record: 5-0 (1.000)Under Mendenhall: 55-11 (.831)

MISSIONSBrigham Young University is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The missionary emphasis of the Church is perhaps one of its most recognized characteristics.

Since the organization of the Church in 1830, over one million missionaries have served. The Church operates missions around the world in 145 nations speaking 164 languages. More than 85,000 missionaries repre-senting the Church are serving proselytizing missions in 417 missions around the world. Most of the Church’s proselytizing missionaries are young men between the ages of 18 and 26. A substantial number of young women and older couples also serve proselytizing missions. Missionaries work long hours—seven days a week for two years (or 18 months for women and couples)—teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and partici-pating in community service.

81 members of the 2015 team have served church missions. Members of the team have served in over 25 countries and six of the seven continents around the globe.

FIRESIDESThe BYU football team will participate in hour-long devotionals prior or team service activities the night before each game this season. The team will conduct devotionals before six games. These devotionals are referred to as “firesides” and are intended to help players, coaches and those who attend strengthen or gain a knowl-edge of our purpose here on earth. Firesides typically include a musical number from members of the team and talks from selected players, along with coach Bronco Mendenhall. Date Day Game Location TimeNov. 5 Thurs.

THE BYU OFFENSE

• FOURTH QUARTER SCORING. BYU has outscored its opponents 91-34 in the fourth quarter this year. BYU scored 20 or more points three times in the fourth quarter this year (Boise State, UConn and Cincin-nati). The Cougars had never had 20-plus points in the fourth quarter in two games in any season under Mendenhall, let alone three. BYU has hit the 20-point mark in the fourth quarter in seven total games under Mendenhall. It marks the first time BYU has scored 20 or more fourth-quarter points in three games since the 1988 season, Ty Detmer’s redshirt freshman year.

• BRUISING BACKS. The running back duo of bruisers Algernon Brown (6-1, 235) and Francis Bernard (6-0, 235) have accounted for 636 rushing yards and 11 total touchdowns in the last four games. The duo is averaging 6.6 yards per carry in the last four games.

• BIG AND TALL. BYU’s tall receiving combination of Mitch Mathews, Nick Kurtz and Terenn Houk stands at 6-foot-6, 6-foot-5 and 6-foot-4. The three big receivers have accounted for 82 receptions, 1,151 yards and 11 touchhdowns.

• OFFENSIVE LINE EXPERIENCE. BYU returns an experienced offensive line for 2015. The five projected starters for BYU have logged 99 starts between them and have played in 122 games. Offensive tackle Ryker Mathews has the most games under his belt with 29 starts in 40 games played.

• NO SACKS ALLOWED. BYU went back-to-back games without allowing a sack for the first time since 2011 (vs. Idaho, New Mexico State). It’s also the first time since 2012 the team has not given up a sack in multiple games.

• FRESHMAN QB RECORD WATCH. Tanner Mangum broke the freshman quarterback records for completions (35) and passing yards (365) against UConn. Jake Heaps set the season records for freshman quarterbacks in 2010, going 219 of 383 for 2,316 yards, 15 touchdowns and had six wins as a starter. After eight games (seven starts), Mangum is 156 for 245 with 1,905 yards, 14 touchdowns and has five wins as a starter.

• TRUE FRESHMAN SIGNAL CALLERS. BYU played three true freshman quarterbacks in the game against Wagner. No other FBS team has played three true freshman quarterbacks during the 2015 season, let alone all three in the same game. Oregon State has played two redshirt freshman quarterbacks and one true freshman quarterback during the 2015 season but not in the same game. BYU’s three true freshman tallied 411 passing yards, 741 yards of total offense and led 10 touchdown drives.

3 The Cougars notched their third block in as many games on Wagner’s lone PAT attempt. BYU has three blocks in three consecutive games (ECU’s punt, Cincinnati’s FG att., & Wagner’s PAT att.).

10 Senior placekicker Trevor Samson booted 10 PATs against Wagner and has a streak of 60 con-secutive PAT conversions with a career mark of 97 of 98. His 10-PAT performance tied a BYU single-game record set by Matt Payne (Tulane, 2001) and Jason Chaffetz (Utah, 1989).

23 First-year punter Jonny Linehan is averaging 43.9 yards per punt for No. 23 in the country.

24 Kicker Trevor Samson has converted 83.3 percent of his field goal attempts this season for No. 24 in the country. He is currently No. 1 in BYU history for career field goal conversion rate at 84.6 percent.

94 BYU’s punt return team had 94 yards as Michael Shelton returned five punts for with a long of 40 against Wagner. It was the most in a game since 107 yards in a 2013 home win against Middle Tennesse.

With an emphasis on special teams, the 2011 squad adopted an “old school” Cougar logo to represent the special teams. The Cougar head with the cap became the face of the team, donning special teamers practice gear along with the special teams flag carried out each game by a selected special teams player.

Entering his eleventh season as head coach at Brigham Young University, Bronco Mendenhall has restored the Cougars’ reputa-tion as one of the nation’s top college football programs. Taking over a BYU team that in 2005 was coming off three consecutive losing seasons, Mendenhall has guided his teams to 10 straight bowl appearances, two outright conference championships before football independence in 2011, and regular national top-25 rankings. Under Mendenhall’s leadership, BYU has earned a 90-39 record to rank 13th in total wins among all FBS teams since 2005 prior to the start of 2015. Mendenhall also ranks 13th in winning percentage at .698 among active coaches with at least five years of FBS experience in the same time period.

The Cougars finished the 2014 season with an 8-5 record that included a 3-0 mark against Power 5 conference schools. Fueled by Heisman hopeful Taysom Hill, BYU won its first four games including a 41-7 win over then-No. 25 Texas. BYU then overcame a rash of midseason injuries to key players to finish the season with a 10th consecutive bowl game. In doing so, the Cougars became one of 12 programs to earn a bowl inviation in each of the last 10 years. Only Florida State (7) has achieved more than BYU’s six bowl victories over that timeframe.

The Cougars set a program record with four consecutive bowl wins from 2009-12, helping Mendenhall become the first BYU head coach to win six bowls in a seven-year span. The Cougars received nine straight bowl invitations for the first time since a string of 17 consecutive bowl bids under Hall of Fame coach LaVell Edwards from 1978 through 1994. Mendenhall is the only coach in BYU football history to take his first 10 teams to a bowl game, and is winning at the same pace as the legendary Edwards. Through his 129 games as BYU head coach, Mendenhall has a record of 90-39—similar to Edwards’ 129-game mark of 93-35-1.

In 2006, Mendenhall was named the American Football Coach-es Association Region IV Coach of the Year following an 11-2 season. In addition, the Football Writers Association of America named Mendenhall one of nine finalists for the pres-tigious Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year Award.

He has also served as the defensive coordinator for much of his tenure as the head coach. BYU has consistently fielded one of the nation’s strongest defenses under Mendenhall’s direction. Mendenhall’s defense excels at keeping opponents out of the end zone, averaging a No. 20 national ranking in scoring de-fense over the past eight of nine seasons, including three top-10 ratings. In 2012, the Cougars featured one of the greatest defenses in school history, allowing just 266.1 yards, including 86.9 rushing yards, and 14.0 points per game. Ranked No. 3 in total defense, No. 3 in scoring defense and No. 2 in rushing defense, the Mendenhall-coached unit held its first six opponents under 300 total yards (part of a streak of 12 consecutive such games dating back to 2011) and kept opposing offenses without a touchdown six times during the year. Adjusting to the team’s up-tempo offense in 2013, BYU’s defense ranked No. 12 in yards per play allowed despite defending more plays than all but four teams nationally. Only two teams that defended as many plays ranked better than the Cougars at defending their turf.

Another hallmark of Mendenhall’s program has been the emphasis on balance and priorities in the many other facets of life outside of football. Reflecting that emphasis, BYU consistently received the most academic all-conference honorees each season as a conference member, while six Cougar student-athletes have earned seven Academic All-America citations un-der Mendenhall. Only four programs have had more Academic All-America citations during Mendenhall’s tenure. In addition, BYU tops all FBS programs for the most selections to the NFF Hampshire Honor Society (3.2 GPA over college career) since the program began in 2007.

Mendenhall was elected in 2013 to the American Football Coaches Association Board of Trustees as the District 8 Repre-sentative and also serves on the Ethics Committee. He began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at his alma mater, Oregon State. He later coached at Snow College, Northern Arizona, became the youngest defensive coordinator in the Pac-10 at Oregon State, then went to Louisiana Tech and New Mexico before coming to BYU as a defensive coordinator in 2003.
