There are lots of variants of the 4-3. I don't watch Utah but from what I've

heard they pretty much run in a nickel almost all the time, so really more like a 4-2. The reports from fall camp look like we are going to be more straight 4-3. Depending on how you play the 4-3 and the 3-4 you can get identical lineups.

I believe we will be somewhere between Bronco and Whit. I have no idea if that will work well or not for BYU.

Yep. Just what I said yesterday.

You have to admit that sounded exactly as a Utah fan

Could actually be a low scoring game if Ty decides to pound it down their throat

Would be awesome to do that, then completely change the gameplan and go with a

Isn't this what Bronco would have done?

was it sitake's defense or Whit's defense?

smokymountainrain

8/29/16 7:55am

whit's. but sitake is installing whit's defense at byu now.

8/29/16 7:58am

really? has he said he's installing whit's defense at BYU?

smokymountainrain

8/29/16 8:00am

I think that's the general consensus.

8/29/16 8:03am

so a bunch of fans think that. thanks, that answers the question.

smokymountainrain

8/29/16 8:05am

well its certainly what I think. and i think there is plenty of evidence to

8/29/16 8:06am

lol. what kind of evidence?

smokymountainrain

8/29/16 8:07am

what the players and coaches have said. are you really arguing that?

8/29/16 8:10am

so the evidence is that they are going to a 4-3 and playing more man to man.

Well, when some of us wanted Sitake to replace Bronco, it was Sitake's

Arizona scoring a lot of points was more the fault of whitts offense

8/29/16 7:57am

Pts allowed: 2011 - 21, 2012 - 34, 2013 - 35, 2014 - 42

I don't include Oregon State because I think that's too apples/oranges

Indy Coug

He coached the worst defense in the p5 last year

Josef K

and that has what to do with BYU's defense?

The same coach?

Utah had a HORRIBLE offense. BYU will grind it out and not give Zona

meh, Taysom doesn't grind things out. he makes plays. i expect long

smokymountainrain

I hope Taysom is far more patient and finds his options this year...

jomo

not me. i hope he runs or throws for an 80 yard TD every time he touches it.

Good point

Tuiaki says they'll have a "multiplicity of fronts". Probably see 4-3 & 3-4.

Interesting you say that because don't the frUtes credit the defense to KWitt

Yep, too bad we couldn't borrow Bronco's 3-4 for one game. It was built to stop

We're facing better competition this year... I'll evaluate on a game-by-game

Expect BYU to play more 4-2-5 against Arizona. That is the transition for spread teams.

I hope it works!!

Sitake's record vs Arizona is 0-0
