Same as Coastal strategy. Keep possessions low. Don't pass if possible

There offense cannot catch up. So they don't want BYU to get possessions to allow them to score and force Utah to rely on their offense.
Whit will come with multiple dive options, jumbo packages, and jet sweeps. They will come with so many new run plays. They also will use short screen passes and quick throws behind the line as a wrinkle to the run game. They will huddle and run clock.

BYU needs to run zone blitzes to keep Isaac off key and to keep people in the box for the run, They need to keep rotation on DL because run game is very grueling. Utah doesn't rotate OL much so BYU can wear them down with fresh DL pressure.

Whitt is stirring up something unexpected.

Just got response on a FOIA request for recent U of U hires. Surprising name:

Same document has a foreign name i don't recognize. Donner Scalions?

They are going to go over every single run of 5+ yards against us this year and emulate that in their scheme

darkcoug

Oct 30, 11:35am

This is my expectation - ground and pound and hope their defense can win it

BYU Fan

Oct 30, 11:40am

Bernard is good, but not a bruiser- Dont think he can handle more than 15-20 car

Oct 30, 2:41pm

Glasker and Batty need to make him pay early and often

dingus79

Oct 30, 3:33pm

Bernard has had several games this year with 20+ carries

krindorr

Oct 30, 5:24pm

UCF had the most success when their RB bounced outside

Kajdin

Oct 30, 11:41am

Yep, but those runs started between the tackles

darkcoug

Oct 30, 11:45am

Perhaps, because essentially all runs start b/t the tackles, but if there is one

I sure hope our coaches are doing the same thing.

I'm way more confident that ARod will dial up something interesting

fattycoug

Oct 30, 11:43am

What evidence would you suggest that a Whitt team can do anything wild re:

fattycoug

Oct 30, 11:42am

No evidence. I just know they are desperate enough to fire an OC mid year.

The Y's Insider

Oct 30, 11:44am

They have been making desperate moves this year with poor results.

fattycoug

Oct 30, 12:01pm

I think Andy Bernard is still healthy. Maybe something there.

Oct 30, 11:45am

The easiest thing he could fix that would deliver the best results is the o-line. They have been pretty bad

P-Boy Squad

Oct 30, 11:43am

Surprisingly, Utah's offensive line grades at the top of the conference on PFF.

runnincoug

Oct 30, 11:51am

That is surprising, the games I've seen Wilson was getting pressured constantly.

acadian8

Oct 30, 12:11pm

Maybe so, I would have to dig into that because I agree. It's strange

runnincoug

Oct 30, 12:14pm

Wilson is slow to release the ball. I think the O-line holds, but QB delays

NYC and Japan

Oct 30, 12:20pm

It's not even that it's slower pressure. It's that teams blitz more because they know he can't punish them for it

krindorr

Oct 30, 5:43pm

It's a Wilson issue and not having the knowledge to get to his hot routes (at least not yet)

krindorr

Oct 30, 5:41pm

Could be a QB thing. Rogers fixed the Jets OL issues (they grade out well now).

Boring

Oct 30, 2:23pm

Utahs defense is always about this good. This is no difference than any other year...except for that their offense is

Preppy

Oct 30, 11:43am

This: take care of the ball and we win. Could get interesting if they can run

ballen

Oct 30, 11:48am

yeah, take care of the ball and be adequate in stopping the run...

icecougar

I hate that there's a bye week before this game.

BlueFever

They will tap into our helmet communications and coms just like UTEP

Bernard in the wildcat package

That is kinda what I’m thinking, too.

The Y's Insider

Oct 30, 3:27pm

They've hired AOC because she knows how to run a mean pick 6 (per Tim Walz)

Trent

Oct 30, 11:54am

If there was something they could do to fix those issues, they would have

We on the other hand will show all our cards.

Oct 30, 12:42pm

They have an excellent running back. Their offense will scheme around him, I am sure.

Oct 30, 12:57pm

Brant Kuithe in the wildcat

icecougar

RE: Brant Kuithe in the wildcat

fattycoug

Oct 30, 2:13pm

Kuithe and Bernard in a co-wildcat V formation, then optioning to each other. JK

jaba166

Oct 30, 2:40pm

Wasn't that the formation that the crazy successful HS coach who'd never punt

Oct 30, 7:33pm

They basically only have 2 real options at QB right? Neither is a real dual

MaximusMeridius

Oct 30, 1:09pm

Prepare for the mean Pick 6

calbearcoug

KWitt loves on-side kicks at unexpected points of the game.

GMGlenn

Could you imagine being Kwhit and seeing the school he's worked so hard to keep

Cheap Seats

What team pulled the trick play where the running back tossed the ball back to

CT98

Oct 30, 1:30pm

Oklahoma State

BYU Fan

Oct 30, 1:31pm

I loved that play design and want BYU to add it to the playbook. The play

CT98

Oct 30, 1:33pm

BYU has that in the playbook. Ran it multiple times with J Hall

fattycoug

Oct 30, 2:14pm

At home vs Baylor was the first I remember it being run. Dude tried to take out our lineman’s legs which is a penalty

Oct 30, 2:30pm

Ya that was insane! I still can’t believe they all just laid on the ground

Blue chunks

Oct 30, 7:45pm

Which Offensive Coordinator is whipping up this scheme?

Doogal McCougar

Oct 30, 1:34pm

They will punt on first down every time they get the ball.

cougar4life55

That's one way to minimize TO's

gymrat

Does that include Pile-driving our QB to the ground multiple times on the same

jaba166

Oct 30, 2:47pm

Probably part of the game plan

Bobmarleyjr

Oct 30, 4:26pm

At least the can't rely on PAC12 refs to execute the key part of that plan!

jaba166

Oct 30, 5:14pm

Sorry but this is a totally different defense and they won’t be able to do that

Beggar

Oct 30, 10:56pm

Hopefully but against OSU, BYU really struggled

Bobmarleyjr

Oct 31, 2:03pm

Good old Warlock Whitt

Knight-who-says-ni

Oct 30, 2:43pm

They had two weeks to plan for TCU and scored 7 points at home.

Oct 30, 2:45pm

It was ASU they had two weeks to prep for.

BackPacker

Oct 30, 2:47pm

I'm confident BYU wins if Utah only scores 19

fattycoug

Oct 30, 2:50pm

Agreed...I think Utah finds a way to score in the teens. Their D is good enough

BackPacker

Oct 30, 2:59pm

This is Whitt's deal with the devil game

The only way BYU loses is if BYU collapses…

First-n-10

Special teams, trick plays, run game, defensive turnovers

Maybe a linebacker playing running back
