many injuries we would be doing a lot better". Playing a tought SOS directly contribures to injuries. 

The answer isn't ever going to be, keep playing superior teams and hope injuries don't come about. Playing teams that are bigger/stronger/faster means that you QB gets hit more. Everyone does. It means you dont ever get to rest you starters in the 4th quarter because you've built a large lead. 

The answer is one of two things: Recruit far better and build depth so that when people get hurt, there isnt a steep drop off. Second option is to realize that recruiting in the high 60's to high 80's just won't work against schedules like this. Something has to give, and it has, every single year in Independance. 

Just hoping we stay healthy is not a plan. Something has to change if you guys ever want to see BYU win more than 4-8 games.
