Forget about Taysom and all the offensive injuries...

The defense sucks. And sucked before they were all hurt.

Usu put up 28 before half.

Our offense has been good enough even with the injuries. But Bronco and Co somehow let this defense fall apart.

A little perspective. The Utes are only a couple

while we are talking about perspective, I would expect utah and Alabama and all

Stop and think for just a minute

You are dead on with this

4 D starters our. Our top 2 defensive players are gone also - plus

Coug Dude

10/22/14 9:07pm

yeah, the injury excuse works except it isn't the offense costing you wins.

Tokolosh

10/22/14 9:11pm

well, you might find them looking somewhat like we did last year.

Tokolosh

10/22/14 9:09pm

This is very true. Last year there was some promise until Wilson went down

Coug Dude

10/22/14 9:14pm

It would be tough. We've lived losing several starters though and it wasn't fun.

Tokolosh

10/22/14 9:19pm

They've never had 15 starters miss games and 11 at once

BYU '80

10/22/14 11:52pm

They lose Booker, they're toast

AF Cougar

10/22/14 9:12pm

against our schedule, yeah

Even more telling

Utah had several "one different play" games last year too...

Tokolosh

10/22/14 9:18pm

Most teams do

bluebloodedcoug

10/22/14 9:24pm

Here is the big difference:

10/22/14 9:53pm

yup utahs wins have been all lucky bounces

Utesplease

10/22/14 9:38pm

^^^ struggles with reading comprehension

bluebloodedcoug

10/22/14 9:48pm

I agree the margin is thin....for example

Utesplease

10/22/14 10:31pm

Utah crapped the bed at home vs 5 loss Wazzu

be honest

Utesplease

10/22/14 9:35pm

No doubt. Byu wins easily 87-86.

The Dude Abides

10/22/14 9:53pm

With Taysom yes. Wazzu has to play defense too

BYU '80

10/22/14 11:55pm

Will Utah be Wazzus only d1 win this year?

BYU '80

10/22/14 11:56pm

"Bronco will right the ship" - based on what?

workinglate

10/22/14 9:30pm

utah has been down 3 defensive starters for all but our 2 easiest games

Utesplease

10/22/14 9:45pm

I don't speak for everyone but I agree. I saw some porter spring film, wow.

me'a pango cougars

10/22/14 10:07pm

Porter has hardly played. No proof he is the best corner

BYU '80

10/22/14 11:59pm

Carter didn't play against wazzu, 95% of the ucla game, or Oregon State

Utesplease

10/23/14 12:17am

I don't think he was talking about Whittingham at LB, but you are right that it

me'a pango cougars

10/23/14 9:30am

Most CB posters have been vastly understating the significance of BYU's injuries

TSH_Rapid_Resp_Team

10/22/14 9:50pm

Here is who Utah is missing right now.......

QBfactoryclosed

10/22/14 10:12pm

LOL. Most of those guys hardly play

BYU '80

10/23/14 12:03am

Most of those guys don't play? 5 of them were penciled in as starters.

tibbyss09

10/23/14 9:31am

Funny thing about the word "mostly."

BYU '80

10/23/14 9:47am

I thought I agreed with you that he has struggled against good teams?

tibbyss09

10/23/14 9:50am

Comedian. Except Stanford and BYU both had very good defenses last year

BYU '80

10/23/14 9:56am

24/35 for 273 yards. 7.8 ypa. 2 TDs and 0 INTs. QB Rating of 152.9.

tibbyss09

10/23/14 10:09am

The only stat that counts is points and 20 isn't very good

BYU '80

RE: A little perspective. The Utes are only a couple

tibbyss09

10/22/14 10:16pm

Your injuries have been spread out and day to day type injuries

BYU '80

10/23/14 12:04am

Day to day type? They've had multiple starters miss multiple games.

tibbyss09

10/23/14 9:27am

They haven't had to deal with so many injuries at the same time to many of their

BYU '80

10/23/14 9:54am

If you read the post

Coug Dude

10/23/14 5:26pm

However the is a difference
