The 93 team gave up 435 points in 12 games which works out to 36.25 a contest. That was the glorious year we went into Pasadena at 4-0 all high and mighty and UCLA dropped 68 on us which has got to be an all time record for BYU. Later in the season the Dairy Yewts put a 58 spot on us in Logan. So no, this year's defense is not "historically bad".
