"Sitake said there are plenty of variables in the Cougars' increased variables in 2020: new personnel, experience, and better knowledge of the scheme, to name a few.

But it's hard to argue that BYU's shifts in defense don't play a role, either.

"I think you're looking at a team that probably plays against teams coming from behind, and throws the ball more," Sitake said. "When they do that, I think we have to capitalize and get more sacks, more disruption. With that, I think I'd like to get more turnovers."

I interpret that to mean conservative defensively unless behind, and then at that point try to "get more sacks, more disruption"?
