Listen "DO-OR-DIE: Will BYU & Bear Bachmeier MAINTAIN Playoff Pursuit or Will UCF Knights Spoil CFP Dreams? | Locked On UCF Crossover"
Episode Synopsis
BYU’s College Football Playoff hopes go on the line as the Cougars host UCF in a Big 12 clash with massive postseason stakes. Bear Bachmeier’s emergence under center and L.J. Martin’s bruising 200-yard performance have powered BYU to the brink of a Big 12 title game berth, while their defense ranks among the conference’s elite in both scoring and run-stopping ability. Can BYU clinch a shot at national glory, or will Scott Frost’s UCF Knights, one win away from bowl eligibility, relish the spoiler role in Orlando?Jake Hatch and Mike Gittens break down every angle: BYU’s motivation to erase last season’s late collapse, the focus on “going from good to great,” and the importance of taking care of business with no room for trap games. The discussion highlights how the Cougars’ ball-control offense and physical run game, combined with a defense built to make opponents one-dimensional, create a formula that’s difficult to crack. UCF’s path to an upset runs through forcing turnovers—capitalizing on any mistakes from Bachmeier—and manufacturing key stops to keep BYU’s offense off the field. With Taven Jackson under pressure to spark consistency, the Knights’ best shot rests on heart, pride, and hope that the Cougars overlook their underdog opponents.The hosts examine Alex Grinch’s improved UCF defense, bowl implications for Scott Frost’s program, and the X-factors of altitude and cold weather in Provo. Will L.J. Martin’s high usage and Bear Bachmeier’s dual-threat ability be too much for UCF, or can the Knights find the magic needed to turn the season around? Style points, playoff committee perceptions, and program trajectory are all on the table as the Cougars look to make a statement on Senior Day.Predictions, key matchups, and candid insights round out an episode loaded with playoff pressure and program pride.
