They'll surpass last season's sack total on Saturday though. That is nice.

Not to be nitpicky. 3 INTS and 1 Fumble Recovery in 5 games seems very low

There's a sizeable random component to turnovers.

I wouldn't mind it one bit if most of our random turnover luck happens

BYU was 13th in interceptions last year, despite being almost dead last in sacks.

How many of those were by linebackers?

Turnovers are much more prevalent in plays that come with pressure (either by a blindside sack, or rushed, errand throw

Eh. A lot of turnover rate is luck.

If we keep getting pressure, we’ll get more turnovers

Yep. Not a complaint. Just an observation. Our defensive numbers are great.

You point out a valid weakness in this defense. Our offense was just that

I hate that our int's are always in terrible field position or, like last week

That 2 point INT was important though. Tune was very conservative from then on..

Not really. Who knows if the receiver catches it and gets the conversion anyway?

Isn't the point of defense to prevent the other team from scoring which is

Watch that play again...if Udo doesn't make that catch, Houston's WR does.

You could argue that play is what turned the tide. It was the start of the comeback.

True. It’s really a good thing we aren’t sackless though...

3 INTs? Warner 2, Tooley 1, Udo 1 = 4.

10/20/20 1:24pm
INTs on 2-pt conversions aren’t counted in the stat book as an INT.

Unfortunately Udo's not-quite-a-sack led to his not-quite-an-interception.

Just bad technique. Got too high and lost his power

The defensive philosophy is to be passive. That does not lead to TO's.
