PROVO, Utah – BYU rolled to another victory on Saturday night, defeating the WKU Hilltoppers by a score of 41-10. Most of the game was wrapped up in the first half as BYU put up 35 points in the first half to move to 7-0 for the first time since 2001.
With BYU being undefeated and the game being televised on ESPN, the blue check marks on Twitter had some reactions to the Cougars play against the Hilltoppers. Some of the highlights included College Football Playoff hypotheticals and Zach Wilson’s impressive incompletion.
Here are some of the notable reactions.
Zach Wilson for Heisman

More fun next week: #MACtion returns midweek and then the #Pac12 joins the action. Until then, go watch #BYU and Zach Wilson score every time they touch the ball.

Zach Wilson’s incompletions are absolutely gorgeous

Zach Wilson is putting up Tua numbers this year and it’s a lovely way to wind down a college football Saturday.

Zach Wilson this year is everything we wanted Jordan Love to be last year

He’s really something else. Zach Wilson is the QB all needy NFL teams that can’t get Lawrence or Fields are developing a crush on. I mean, that throw…. https://t.co/Latcee2Ai5 https://t.co/gpnFrC5hfm

BYU has touchdowns in every drive. Zach Wilson is playing poor competition but he’s eviscerating them

What don’t y’all like about Zach Wilson’s game. What’s the knock on him? Every week I watch for something to nitpick at. Only thing I’d say is I’d like to see him in a more uncomfortable position. Looks way too easy for him lol fun to watch him.

BYU is a little hard to evaluate because the vast majority of their opponents suck. Yes, we all get that. We could have a better discussion about them if we agreed to put that aside and see how they look against Boise

BYU is filthy good. Too bad we don’t (and won’t) know how good they are until the bowl season.
This is one of those years where I think you should have a G5 parallel championship.
BYU versus Cincinnati would be lit. 🔥

I don’t care what people say about BYU playing an “easy schedule”, because “good teams” get beat by “bad teams” all the time or the “good team” only wins narrowly. But BYU has showed up every week. And dominated every opponent. They deserve all the praise they’re getting.

In a year where there isn’t a clear cut fourth best team, the Big 12 stinks and the Pac-12 plays like three games, I hope we give a real shot to Cincinnati or BYU at the playoff if either goes undefeated. Don’t think it will happen, but man would it be nice.

Might have just woken up the house by hollering at BYU hitting a field goal to go up 31 with a minute left against WKU at 1:31 in the morning. What a thrill
