We’ve heard that several times this year already. It doesn’t appear that we are capable of adjusting until halftime and they have almost said as much.

Three man front is not a problem if you keep seven in the box

We had six covering the wideouts almost all game. Easy to run when it’s 7 v 5.

We hardly ever have 7 in the box. We usually have 5, sometimes 6. By the way

A couple of plays we had 3 D linemen and one Middle LB in the box. All others

You're both right. 3 man front dropping 8 into cover, and you get

Really? We were almost exclusively 4-man fronts the entire first half!

It's not the 3 man front, it's how many you have in the box.

Guess what Kalani, this will be everyone’s game plan moving forward.

Kalani won’t change. He’s too stubborn.

How does that catch you off guard when you get a backup QB

Yikes, literally anybody who watched WYO game last week would plan to run on BYU

Feels like opposing offenses are always trying to do the unexpected! What gives?
