TheLoneCougar Adrielle?!

We dropped 8 because we were getting pressure, but I don't think it was as much as you are thinking it was.

Also, the interior DL, while maybe still a question mark, is playing better and more disruptive than we have seen in years. They are more responsible right now for statistical success than the vaunted Tyler Batty on the edge.

I still cannot understand the decision: Retzlaff vs. Sugar Bowl winning, athletic QB.

Nice analysis and very refreshing. I’m shocked at how few on here can enjoy

Its not a binary situation.People can enjoy while also pointing out obvious flaw

I think the issue is that this offense is horrific to watch

I think there are a lot more that enjoyed the win. There is just a very vocal

Well stated. Good analysis.

Agreed in pointing out we won by dropping 8 a lot, but the reason we were able to drop 8 was because even our 3 rushers

It felt so good seeing us get pressure with 3.

Seems like coaching is important and working. So many ignored the late season

We didn’t really drop eight

Our LB's were actually cover people and not grass. That also helps

Proof that we have at least one known competent coordinator on staff. Would love to see that consistently on both sides

His stats were bad, so that's saying something.

IronPotato

Sep 7, 7:46am

I wouldnt call that a heavy dose of drop 8. It was used situationally only.

LifeLongLakerFan

Sep 7, 7:54am

Agreed, we were constantly getting pressure on the QB with a four man rush.

Mobettah

Sep 7, 7:56am

He had three turnovers. The biggest stat of all

BYU '80

Sep 7, 7:59am

And three more series where we went 3 and out because he kept turfing the ball

Sep 7, 8:25am

Nine three and outs altogether. Just awful

BYU '80

This is correct. One play I would like to understand better. The ball to Marion.

If it was a go route I thought QBs are taught to throw it between the sideline

It is thrown based on where the defenders are so receiver can catch but the

He had a QBR of 30. That is a pretty good reflection of his performance.

Did ARod forget coach after Jaren Hall?

BYU '80

Sep 7, 8:46am

Maybe he forgot to recruit a good QB?

Must be frustrating. He loves BYU and has no idea how to improve the team.

That’s not a good quality in our HC, a constant stupor of thought. Not good.

Airing laundry in public isn't the answer. KS isn't going to do that, thankfully

Wyoming, Baylor, Houston, ASU and probably either Kansas or Kansas State
