Because we couldn't get off the field.

because all we saw was vanilla-ness. We were used to Bronco Brilliance

Cougarclaw

Even in 2016 we were a defense that made plays and forced turnovers.

There were 3 games that I was really disappointed in our defense. Wisconsin, USU

Because I actually watched the games. We had like the fewest sacks and least

Name me 3 times you saw an effective pass rush

Our offense tempo was slow

here's to hoping

It's always the offenses fault.

Borg

I don't think mangum got a single tackle all season...not sure about your point

here's to hoping

Ranked #105 in passing efficiency defense #119 TFL #81 in turnovers

and THIS combined.

What(bad) are (bad) you (bad) talking (bad) about (very bad)?

Borg

BYU allowed 68% (125th) completion percentage & 8 YPA (106th)

Dr T-bone

8/14/18 3:40pm

THIS too

here's to hoping

8/14/18 6:51pm

Because they don't realize how incredibly bad the offense was and that the D was

Why do people keep trying to find silver linings from last year?

Mr. Scoobs

8/14/18 3:48pm

Because it was. No pass rush and poor coverage in secondary.

Iron Coug

8/14/18 3:51pm

Because we watched teams complete passes like they were handing the ball off?

davidmj10

8/14/18 4:27pm

I'm most disappointed in the lack of vision for the defensive scheme. We basically ran one defensive set

Refugee

8/14/18 4:38pm

Yards allowed per game isn't a great stat to determine how good a defense was

THIS too

here's to hoping

8/14/18 6:55pm

How about the percentage of tds to drives.

SDcoug74

8/14/18 7:25pm

that stat would matter if our offense ever put us in the lead, but since we were

There were 11 actual teams whose offense was worse than BYU’s last year?

Future_Tacos

8/14/18 5:04pm

Because they lost to the worst offense in D1 last year.

8/14/18 5:15pm

Defense needs to get back to forcing turnovers and making

They weren't that bad and here is why.

As someone who thought BYU would be horrible again this year...

Alright, I will take a stab at debunking your points, maybe I can learn some

Pace of play doesn't matter

SDcoug74

8/14/18 9:23pm

I agree that pace of play doesn't necessarily change the number of chances each
