Pili was playing the Takitaki role
Takitaki singlehandedly kept our defense afloat cleaning up soooo many issues with with 16-tackle games. He was amazing. Pili was doing the same.

Real and rational thoughts on USF , the defense, and the next 5 games....

Yeah, you never know how these games will go. Hopefully BYU is healthy. USU has

Don't agree that USU looked inept. Total offense was essentially equal.

This was the biggest issue of the defense, our D ends didn't contain the edges

“Flushing the QB” was the goal!

Didn’t mandel only play one quarter then got banged up?

Yep. And Hayes isn't a starter either lol

He's good enough to be. We can 3-deep at corner this year with ability. It's so weird to see it.
Turnpike Lane

Agreed. But he's still a backup.

3 of the people you list weren't 1 on the two-deep to start the season and 2

Aye. And we agree that more blitzing wasn't the answer to USF's mobile QB

YES. Even if Pili was the only defender hurt, you're going to see a BIG dropoff

The staff has to find a replacement and quickly, so the other 10 can play in position.
Turnpike Lane
9/27/21 9:43am
I agree. The Pili to Bywater dropoff is very very large.

Might be a good idea to move Allgeier back to LB

Fun part of this: these could be some shootout games where we win (or lose)

USF also made an adjustment mid-2nd quarter; our response was to go conservative

Good post. I think during that stretch we saw why Hall is QB1 and Baylor QB2...

Good observations. Also, USF did a good job of not killing their own drives.

I agree with you 90%. But I have one issue with the D, which has been mentioned.

Some of what you say is very obvious. But you’re bumptious with some of it.

To use the word bumptious is in and of itself bumptious

also with 2014 there was some major dysfunction on the defense....
