One was a formation pentalty on a seem route to the TE that got them inside the 5. Called back. ANother was a false start on a play we were not ready for and guys were lost.

THe mass subbing kept guys fresh, but it caused some issues early, and we were lucky to not get punished more by it.

That just means BYU has some depth. Get them playing time. I'm good with it.

I agree, but I've never coached FB, so what do I know?

I am with you. Too much “playing chess” with those wholesale changes.

I'd rather see 2 or 3 subs at a time, rather than 6 or 7

ASU scored 17 points. I'm fine with whatever it take to do that.

Assuming the opponent will have 16 penalties and 4 TOs isn't the answer. There were issues to clean up.

It makes me think we need a wall for them to jump over like in Hockey.
