terrible the last several games due to being decimated by injuries.
Fans forget that after the Detmer debacle, BYU invested in the offense at the expense of the defense. Grimes had an extra assistant and thus Tuiaki had 1 less than normal. That is a net advantage of 2 coaches.
Recruiting scholarships were skewed towards the offense. And a great linebacker named Allgeier got moved back to RB.
OL schollies we’re abundant. That leaves fewer for DL.
