I didn't say it wasn't part of the game, but it is obvious that the officiating
Is going to let most of it go.

The rules have not changed. If you look up holding and pass interference in the NCAA rulebook, everything I said is 100% consistent with how I described the rule.

But the way it is called has changed, and Utah has taken advantage of that. There is no question that Utah DBs are taught to do whatever it takes, and how not to get caught. They are going to take that chance because history shows it pays off more than it ends up hurting.

So instead of complaining that the refs aren't calling it, BYU dbs (and wide receivers as well,) should also be taught and practiced to grab, hold, and push off and challenge the refs to call it.

Austin Collie was a master at keeping db's hands off of him and he definitely used his arms to create space and separation.

I believe Kalani has brought that mentality to the defensive backfield and we are seeing more aggressive defensive backs now. I would like to see the wide receivers be way more aggressive.
