What do you anticipate Grimes will do to counter utah's elite d-line?

chazen

4 straight runs.

Sad, but true.

If BYU can run the ball effectively they win.

Sorry. 4 straight runs for 9 total yards.

Push really hard

All of the above, mixed with some deep passes with play action

I think he uses Bushman early and often. Try to attack the inexperienced LB's.

Captain Insano

8/21/19 1:57pm

I hope Scalley's got safeties on Bushman, not LBs.

displacedute

8/21/19 1:59pm

I do too.

cougarmanguy

8/21/19 2:00pm

I think Burgess and Blackmon can cover Bushman.

displacedute

8/21/19 2:02pm

If you watch his catches last year he was defended by safeties almost all the time

cougarmanguy

8/21/19 2:34pm

Most of the time he was blanketed in the middle of the field

cougarmanguy

8/21/19 2:35pm

They will absolutely bracket him

RockyBalboa

8/21/19 3:34pm

Use the RBs in the passing game. Have DBs pulled off by WR and keep the safety

Easy, your strength is a likely weakness for the Utes, effective TE play will be

Use the TE to clear out the safety and inside linebackers and follow up with

Archaea

8/21/19 2:50pm

Exactly, that's a glaring vulnerability on the defensive end.

double pitch play to short side of field on 4th and goal from the 4

BlueFrog

TE's and slot receivers will be used a lot

SUAVO

Flare pass to Brady Christensen in the red zone

Kneel the ball over and over

StapleGun

8/21/19 2:12pm

We handled the same 'elite' dline fine last year.. our problem was depth

TheLost

8/21/19 2:04pm

If you actually watch the game and not just a few highlights

BigT801

8/21/19 2:08pm

the point is the OL played well enough. It was lack of defensive depth

yahtzee

8/21/19 2:11pm

They did some nice things but Utah’s DL was in the backfield all game

BigT801

8/21/19 2:18pm

saying Utah's DL being in the backfield in the second half led to the comeback

yahtzee

8/21/19 2:29pm

I didn’t say it was the biggest (or only) factor

BigT801

8/21/19 3:07pm

How many "huge factors" were you contemplating then? I am excited to continue

From my most recent rewatch and non-expert eye

BigT801

8/21/19 3:43pm

Utah won the game which is what matters, but you realize BYU passed for more yards than Utah and only had 10 less

SierraCoug

8/21/19 2:33pm

I didn’t say they blew up the offense

BigT801

8/21/19 3:12pm

You said "Utah’s DL was in the backfield all game." That sounds like you're claiming Utah blew up the offense. Unless

SierraCoug

8/21/19 3:22pm

Zach was extremely good at escaping the pocket and running

BigT801

8/21/19 3:28pm

Iow, Utah's play was vastly superior to BYU, but BYU managed to outgain Utah only because of Zach's elusiveness.

SierraCoug

8/21/19 3:52pm

I never said any of that.

BigT801

8/21/19 3:58pm

What you can say is BYU dominated Utah for almost three quarters. Up to that point, Utah's offense had done squat.

SierraCoug

8/21/19 4:20pm

Yeah Utah’s offense was a total mess until the second half

BigT801

8/21/19 4:25pm

AND NOT THROW ANY PICK SIXES!!!!

I wonder if you watched the game

macaroni

Yeah a few times actually.

BigT801

8/21/19 3:29pm

I did watch the game.. The issue was the time on field for the OL

Are you serious? What you are saying is NEVER an issue in FB. The

chazen

Lol that’s hilarious.

BigT801

And BYU will be improved at OL. Yes, Utah will cause problems for BYU, but it

TailgateU

8/21/19 2:36pm

So, the first three quarters were just a few highlights?

basman

8/21/19 3:03pm

No. Zach just did a better job escaping pressure

BigT801

8/21/19 3:06pm

Lots of fake punts

Nuke

8/21/19 2:57pm

Quick stuff coupled with deep balls to challenge the DBs. Don’t even need to complete them. Just attempt them

macaroni

8/21/19 3:09pm

Just don't throw picks.

SierraCoug

8/21/19 4:24pm

Yes

Surprise them with the Daffy Duck (Utah 80’s style)

Up tempo, QB run option. Ute DB are too good for bubble screens and Jet sweeps.

Bryceo19

Depends on if the WRs are mediocre or good.
