Well said! We can't just look at PPG allowed.. the defense requires the offense

to play almost perfectly. That's been my gripe- the defense CAN'T win a game if needed. It's almost as though BYU has two separate teams.

 

"But for some of you all that matters is points per game which we are at #28. It doesn't matter that this defense is keeping off the field one of the most efficient offenses in all of college football. It doesn't matter that we don't get many short fields. It doesn't matter that we don't get any really tired defenses that only got a couple of minutes rest because of a 3 and out. It doesn't matter that we are #49 in points per drive because we are #28 in points per game! That is a big difference."

 

While yes, the Offense's struggles and TOs hurt BYU, and gave Boise 17 points, BYU's defense could NOT limit Boise moving the ball
