Without MAJOR changes in our defensive philosophy and execution, BYU is going to be 5-4 after the Virginia game.

Since halftime of the USF games, our opponents have had 37 drives. 3 of them were Baylor's 1 play 1st half Hail Mary and two knee downs (Boise & Baylor). So that's 34 drives. Those 34 drives have featured: 15 drives that lasted 8 or more plays (.441) 7 drives that lasted 5 or more minutes (.206...

Tuiaki has lost us more games over the years then any other factor since Kalani was hired. His defenses don't know how to get off the field on 3rd down and if they do get the stop on 3rd down, they usually give up so many yards on 3rd that the 4th down conversion is inevitable. I am convinced that B...

Romney would have made no difference in the outcome of this game. The Defense can't get anyone off the field right now. It has been since Keenan Pili's injury since our defense has played half way decent. We beat 2 inferior opponents with them playing like crap but got bitten against the last 2 with...

Yeah, who scheduled our bye week right before we play a couple patsies? We needed the bye week after the ASU game.

I had a few thoughts. First, BSU won the line of scrimmage much more than BYU did. Second, when we rushed three and drop eight, multiple times the app defenders are still 10 yards off the line of scrimmage. The BSU quarterback could dump it off and fairly consistently get 5 plus yards. Third, we ne...

Don't even get me started on the defense. Defense wasn't the primary culprit today, but boy were they frustrating to watch. There was a 3rd and 2 on Boise's last FG drive where BSU lined up with 3 receivers tripped to the right. BYU shifted three over to cover, but they were all 5+ yards off the LO...

In 2019 Boise State rolled into Provo undefeated and ranked 13th. BYU had a losing record and had no business being in that game but we won. Turned out to be Boise's only loss of the season. Boise just turned the tables on us big time. We ruined their season back then and they just ruined ours. BYU ...

Well, we got to see a lot of receivers having to stop and wait on deep balls or come back to underthrown balls tonight. I think one deep ball was thrown to where a receiver could catch in stride. We also saw the coaches trying to keep Hall safe in a pocket. If that's the new game plan -- keep Hall ...

Very sad news. Prayers for his family.
