Statistically, BYU lost to ASU because of the defense and not the offense.

First half defense was bad.

Defense was abysmal. They moved at will both halves. 2H, the had a couple stops after allowing them to move it

It annoyed me but at the same time it was fine because ASU didn't take another 6

CameronG

Allowing 28 points on 8 drives to that offense was far from remarkable. I bet you wish Tuiaki was back.

Impossible. According to CB, our defensive coordinator is the second coming of Buddy Ryan.
