After watching the game I honestly think the reason BYU beat USC and Utah didn't

I'm inclined to agree.

BYU played specifically to keep the ball in front of them and not get beat deep

So we have to give Tuiaki credit for doing that

No. According to KWHITT, BYU’s scheme had nothing to do with stopping SC.

Actually, it appears that Utah’s scheme had

The defense dictated the game plan. BYU played zone coverage rushed 3 all day

Good point. I still think they should have just tried some deep passes on us.

No doubt their wr”s are awesome. The one long td pass when Pittman I think

They should've run on us more imo. Glad they didn't.

Utah just doesn't have the talent/athleticism to play man on USC's receivers.

Is because Zach Wilson was awesome!

BYU's two picks affected that thinking, and when they continued that pass

Exactly what my response was. Back to back INTs stopped that as a strategy.

Different scheme. Y played zone & generally kept the receivers in front of them.

Same way they beat Standford

RE: Great, let's discount BYU's win. Well done. BYU won. UU lost. Reality.

OK, I agree that BYU would probably not be the top of the PAC.

Benfica1

Part of that is scheme. We are almost exclusively zone and they are a man

Bottom line BYU got it done. Utah didn't.

Should have followed BYU defensive scheme in second half

chirocoug

9/21/19 9:06am

They couldn’t against us. We were dropping 8 with two deep safeties

chazen

With a healthy Moss, Utah wins.

rockyrd

Backup RBs still averaging 6ish YPC. Bad defensive scheme did them in

SMITTY

9/21/19 10:33am

We played zone coverages and confused a freshman QB

9/21/19 9:59am

Well Slovis kinda put the ball out there a couple of times against us,

Look I agree that our zone coverage was much more effective and that the
