Football enjoys productive first full day in Boise on Tuesday

BOISE, Idaho – BYU football continued preparations for the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl on Tuesday while also being treated to some great hospitality and fun as part of the bowl activities.

BYU head coach Kalani Sitake oversaw a focused practice session Tuesday morning during his team’s first full day in Boise. The team got off to an early start with treatments and a team lift prior to practicing at the Caven-Indoor Practice Facility on the campus of Boise State.

Tuesday afternoon the team took to the hills to find some snow at nearby Bogus Basin Ski Resort, where the Cougars enjoyed the thrills offered by the resort’s Goldrush Tubing Hill. The 800-foot tubing course was a hit for players and coaches and their families during the Bowl's Winter Sports Day event.
