Statistically, BYU lost to ASU because of the defense and not the offense.

It was like Tuiaki came back for a game.

First half defense was bad.

So was the 2nd half defense.

ASU 2nd half possessions: Downs, TD, Punt, Downs, Downs

They drove the ball to the 4 yard line on one drive and had no faith in their kicker. They drove the ball to the 11

Defense was abysmal. They moved at will both halves. 2H, the had a couple stops after allowing them to move it

The defense had an uphill battle going into this game... the fact that we had them held to 28 points at their home...

Allowing 28 points on 8 drives to that offense was far from remarkable. I bet you wish Tuiaki was back.

Was their 3rd lowest scoring output of the season... and the lowest scored point ASU has scored at home

2nd highest at home. But again the issue is points per drive. Points per game is deceiving

Impossible. According to CB, our defensive coordinator is the second coming of Buddy Ryan.

Giving ASU a short field after our first possession didn’t help

Yep...this is an underrated concern and should be reconsidered going forward.

The statistics that account for expected points based on starting field position

Like it or not defense is still a pretty big issue. Especially the line

The line was dominated. Not sure how to say that nicer.

True. Just like most blamed the D when we lost to CCU, people are blaming the coordinator they like less. But defense
