2nd, as a whole, I do think that BYU CBs have been our single weakest link for years and years. We get beat deep. Constantly. I don't know if we've ever had a great CB since Derwin Gray, and he got drafted by the NFL in 1993.

Anyone else agree?

Problems at cornerback you say? At BYU you say? Shocking.

Couldn't be much worse than last season.

Corner really wasn't a problem last season, so it definitely could

Coop

Um, okay. So who is to blame for the NCAA-worst pass defense?

SandYFan

8/20/18 2:36pm

Safeties and pass rush

Coop

Oh.

The corners weren't good

Coverage was soft because the safeties were terrible

Coop

I agree

Safety play last year was the absolute worst I had ever seen...

yessir! and little pressure on QBs didn't help

That was definitely a big problem

Safeties playing corner, bad safeties playing safety, no pressure .....

Oh we have started making up numbers now? What def statistic were they last in?

Ranked #105 in passing efficiency defense, #119 TFL, #81 in turnovers.

That’s not worst in NCAA.

Go back and watch all the seam route and skinny posts that wisconsin threw

It honestly couldn't, the pass defense was historically bad

And yet, the article really doesn't back up that headline. Trib? I'm shocked

I'm really baffled by them keeping McChesney at Safety

ayfan

8/20/18 2:38pm

I was surprised they moved all three (Lake, Warner, McChesney)

Coop

8/20/18 2:39pm

Warner has struggled at times at CB, and has the size to play safety

ayfan

8/20/18 2:47pm

The coaches apparently love Austin Lee

Dumb to think that wholesale position changes would improve things

What worries my is not finding 2 starting corners, it's having 4 or 5 that can

rotate into each game. What's happens when a team has a 4 or 5 WR set?

CougLuv1

8/20/18 5:24pm

You have a nickel back (3rd CB) and then your safeties cover the other WRs

jreid191

8/20/18 5:45pm

I understand that, but do we evenhave 5 total DBs that we love. Plus, others to
