BYU’s 2017 season kicked off a few minutes ago against Portland State. The action is a little bit slow as of this second, and with BYU heavy favorites, it might not provide tons of exciting action.
So instead, let’s revel in the highlight right before the game started. #1 on the weight scale, and #1 in your heart, Mo Langi, carried the American flag on the field to start the game.
Is Langi going to be BYU’s most important player this season? No. He’s still learning the ins and outs of actually playing the sport. But because of his massive potential, intriguing underdog story, and yes, enormous frame, he’s maybe the easiest guy on the team to root for.
Yes, Mo Langi, internet icon, our favorite Large Adult Son of Provo, lead the Cougars onto the field, and bless the start of the season. And if he could throw in a Piesman Trophy worthy play or two, all the better.
