This has always been my issue with Tuiaki's defense:

Here's a visualization of BYU's trend in Total Havoc over the years:

In fairness, FBS independents historically are bad at creating havoc. It’s just

So…a big component is stealing offensive playcalling? That’s unfortunate.

2018? This defense is not the D from 2018. I would wager that we aren't in that corner this year.

We aren't. We are much improved this year. Like I said, Kalani has said in interviews that they are focused on producing

6 forced turnovers this year through 3 games… although one goes to the offense;)

The current strategy gives away yards, field position, and momentum. Importantly

Remember Bronco's "total disruption" mantra when he first came here as DC?

You're half right.

A lot of that is not having the horses in the secondary to be able to create

He had to have more horses at BYU than he did and NM?

New Mexico, guess it is UNM? Sorry

He coached at New Mexico?

Yea Bronco did, he was the DC there. They brought him up and I was replying to

Lol. You use a chart but not from this year, last year, or the year before that

The last one that was available. I wouldn't count last year considering who we played.

Last year when we played 12 D1 teams? I bet you would have counted it if we

Blueto

Most of those teams are teams we'll probably never play again - that we only played because it's all we could get

Ok, here you go. BYU had 117 havoc plays out of 793 total defensive plays, or 14.8% - below the national average

Um, Houston and UCF are literally joining the B12 with us. BSU and SDSU are

He drops 8 and lets the offense make its own mistakes

Seems like a strange time air a beef about Tuiaki’s defense.

9/21/21 11:46am

It's not a beef. It WAS a beef. If you look at my other posts on havoc today, we've actually IMPROVED quite a bit in

Who even cares if they keep points off the board. No one!

Good argument to make, right after a game where we got 4 turnovers... ...

here's to hoping

9/21/21 1:32pm

Those TOs prove my argument. My argument is that BYU is getting much better at creating Havoc
