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

First half defense was bad.

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...

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

I want to believe that pure statistics should drive each decision but the impact of momentum is hard to predict.

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