Former Boston College QB Paul Peterson Now Coaching at BYU
Written by: John
Paul Peterson says Boston College fans have nothing to fear now that the former Eagles quarterback is an offensive intern on Brigham Young’s coaching staff. “They made me turn in my BC playbook before I left,” Peterson said with a chuckle yesterday by telephone from Provo, Utah.
Paul Peterson may have turned in his playbook, but I can’t imagine that Paul is anything but a benefit to BYU planning to defend the Boston College defense. I’ll be amazed if they don’t bring this up as a storyline during the ESPN2 broadcast of BYU and Boston College.
You don’t work for a few years on learning plays just to forget them when you turn in your play book. Plus, BYU has all the film from all the games where he could recreate the playbook if he wanted.
The more important point is that by watching film, Bronco Mendenhall could almost reproduce the playbook also. Hopefully Peterson will have some insight into how the BC coach calls the plays.
In the end, BYU running the ball is going to be the difference in this game. If BYU runs the ball against BC then BYU will win. If they can’t, then they will lose.
