I don't have to like it, as long as it wins games.

It worked this year because BYU's offense scored, pretty much, everytime they had the ball. Lets see what happens now that Zach Wilson is in the NFL. I am still not sold.

This may have some truth to it. One of the more prominent 3-man-front defenses I can remember were the Colts defenses during Peyton Manning's tenure. When Peyton and the offense jumped out to a quick lead, the defense did great. When the offense bogged down or they found themselves playing from behind, suddenly that great defense had a hard time getting off the field and getting the ball back to the offense.
