how about this, we watch the games this year and I will point it out to you

it really isn't that hard to spot. When BYU was moving the ball at will in the 2nd quarter and suddenly they can't buy a first down on their first 2-3 possessions (or more) of the second half, there's a good chance it's simply not just a coincidence especially when it happens consistently week to week.

There is so much wrong with this post I don't even know where to start.

LOL.... well just name one

8/21/14 11:43am

Nevada 2013

LOL, Nevada, LOL

8/21/14 11:48am

You said name one. And now you're changing the conversation.

lawboy

8/21/14 11:59am

when you score 0 points at half time, it's obvious you need to

8/21/14 12:07pm

Nobody scores any points at halftime. They're in the locker room.

SoCalCoug

8/21/14 12:09pm

Utah and Nevada were the only games where BYU had 0 points at halftime

SoCalCoug

8/21/14 12:20pm

PLease stop bringing the facts

lawboy

8/21/14 12:23pm

Completely agree with this post! Well said.

Answer: Yes. They outscored opponents 161-121 in the second half last year

SoCalCoug

8/21/14 12:13pm

and how many of those points came on the first 3 possessions

8/21/14 12:23pm

Could you please list precisely the adjustments the other coaches made

StantonMac

8/21/14 12:31pm

how about this, we watch the games this year and I will point it out to you

8/21/14 12:38pm

Since it happens so consistently

StantonMac

8/21/14 12:43pm

One good example of this was the Houston game

AFcoug7

Errrrr, try again...

StantonMac

8/21/14 1:44pm

I think your argument is flawed if you are saying...

Eddie

8/21/14 2:16pm

The problem with this statement is...

Tweege

8/21/14 3:22pm

Yeah, because teams clearly only adjust for the first 3 possessions.

lawboy

8/21/14 12:32pm

Didn't you notice VanNoy coming off the corner or the CB blitzs?

Cougarpride

8/21/14 12:59pm

You should apply to coach at BYU. You are so on it.

lawboy

8/21/14 11:47am

Wow, just wow, zinger... no, YOU are on it!

8/21/14 11:48am

Fans of every team think their coaches are bad at in-game adjustments

8/21/14 11:49am

Bingo. What fans are really saying, "just make it so we win."

BarraCouga

8/21/14 11:53am

Well, not really... when you play TCU 4 years in a row

8/21/14 11:55am

You're right. Bronco struggles with defense. My bad.

BarraCouga

8/21/14 12:00pm

Bronco is good at defense but not great at every aspect of defense

8/21/14 12:10pm

Boggles my mind that he hasn't hired you and CC.

BarraCouga

8/21/14 12:16pm

it's okay to accept that Bronco & Anae have weaknesses

8/21/14 12:20pm

I accept that. I just don't think you are qualified to point them out.

BarraCouga

8/21/14 12:21pm

okay, you are entitled to your opinion

8/21/14 12:31pm

Is it okay to make up weaknesses they may not actually have?

SoCalCoug

8/21/14 12:21pm

you really believe Bronco is good at coaching blitzes???

8/21/14 12:27pm

You really believe he's not?

Every coach has weaknesses and makes mistakes

StantonMac

8/21/14 2:11pm

You are just beyond clueless

ALC

8/21/14 2:25pm

What DB were we going to bring off the bench to play nickle or dime?

StantonMac

8/21/14 12:01pm

Please, don't bother PortlandUte with trivial things like personnel

lawboy

8/21/14 12:09pm

so BYU has only 2 DBs on the team every year???

8/21/14 12:13pm

In the history of BYU, we've never been as deep at DB as we are right now

StantonMac

8/21/14 12:27pm

sorry but you don't need elite DBs to play a dime or nickle D

8/21/14 12:29pm

Oh, brother

StantonMac

8/21/14 12:41pm

No, but the DB you're bringing on needs to be at least as good as the LB he's

collie418

8/21/14 12:51pm

You are really quite full of yourself aren't you?

BarraCouga

8/21/14 1:01pm

Joe Sampson played nickle, if I remember right he was a safety

ALC

8/21/14 6:28pm

LOL! With your impressive resume, you are a shoein at DC and OC! So sad you

8/21/14 11:53am

Agreed on the blue zone fade route frustrations.

8/21/14 11:57am

Ever thought it might be a throw Taysom isn't good at?

byusage

8/21/14 12:11pm

Well, then they should just get a QB who can make all the throws perfectly every

SoCalCoug

8/21/14 12:22pm

That would be nice, wouldn't it?

byusage

8/21/14 12:28pm

BYU outscored opponents 94-55 in the 3rd quarter last year.

SoCalCoug

8/21/14 11:57am

Yea, but we would have outscored them 188-27 had we made halftime adjustments

StantonMac

8/21/14 12:03pm

The one's that prove his point.

Howell is gonna be dialing up the blitzes this year

SUAVO

8/21/14 12:41pm

IMO, our RB depth is pretty good this year.

8/21/14 12:46pm

I absolutely agree. B and A will ride their opinions to the point of complete

8/21/14 1:12pm

Did he just say Bronco is terrible at disguising Blitzes?

Taylor Nazareth

8/21/14 1:23pm

I thought we were pretty good at getting to the QB.

Harrison0Yfan

8/21/14 1:31pm

Bottom line it: Bronco's adjustments are to execute better, not change tactics

I agree with this post...but you left off the most important coaching flaw

8/21/14 5:50pm

You have to love the LB's covering slot WR's. Gotta love it.

GOBIGBLUE

8/21/14 6:24pm

I completely agree.
