Another year, another major September upset victory for BYU football.
The Cougars’ defense played hero in a 18-15 win over SMU Friday night in Dallas, and social media had plenty to say about it.
Here are some of the best reactions to BYU’s stunner over the Mustangs.

Defense showed up big.
Jay Hill has these dudes dialed in and dogging out.
They didn’t give up a single TD.
BYUs Dline played big boy ball.
Fantastic win.
GAME BALLS TO THE ENTIRE DEFENSE! They stepped up OVER and OVER again. Offense can walk home. #GoCougs

BYU was picked to finish 13th in the Big 12 while SMU was picked to finish 7th in the ACC. Just another reason why the Big 12 is better. https://t.co/G5PqCfiTCv

FPI Predictor gave BYU at 19.7% chance to win the SMU game.
— Sporty (@SportyMcSports) September 7, 2024
And BYU won.
It gives BYU a 24% chance to win at Utah. pic.twitter.com/1IhgvBb26x
