Bronco often gave up long first drives only to make adjustments.

I've actually been thinking how similar it is.

Sorry if already discussed. BYU’s defense seems base during the first couple of

Seems like our first series has been awful in most games the past several years.

I feel like I would try and force them to adjust to us instead of vice versa...

I think Mendenhall stated on different occasions his def. philosophy was 1st

10/27/20 8:37am

Of teams who have played more than 2 games this year, BYU is 5th in run defense

But this is sort of a lie because BYU has been so far ahead for most of their

They're 6th in yards allowed per run, so it's not much of a lie.

There's nothing wrong with them this year for sure

CasualFan

I think they're still searching for their best form & maybe even identity a bit

You just described Bronco's defense in many, many games and oddly suggested it wasn't his style

I don't see how it is plausible to argue BYU's defense

CasualFan

10/27/20 8:52am

He also had bad defenses that were bailed out by a good offense, see '08 and '14

Which is why the term "vast majority" was used

CasualFan

He also had a terrible defense in '05, so 3 of 11 seasons had horrible defenses.

bluescholar

If your point is to quibble that 8 of 11 is not a vast majority

I guess ~73%>>>>>>>>>>>>>60% You exaggerated, not a big deal

We were told tge defense would be a 4/3 this year. Have we started any

my complaint about the D in previous years has been their lack of in game

2020 points allowed by quarter: 20, 24, 12, 28

Give us 4.6 seasons of Kilani-Tuiaki. Then we can chat.

LEDSFW

10/27/20 9:16am

By quarter since 2016: 284, 320, 277, 370. So the 1st quarter narrowly misses out as their lowest scoring allowed.

Indy Coug

10/27/20 9:19am

So basically our defense typically really sucks in the 4th Q, when needed most

And 2nd qtr heading into half time

10/27/20 11:08am

Kalani's defense was much the same at Utah

10/27/20 9:49am

I don’t think it’s better to drop 9 (Matador Defense) on the opening drive

Blue2thebone

I think 2020 is a lot different.

Can we all just agree that a Bronco Defense and a Grimes Offense would be super fun? I do not hate Tuaki like some
