Virginia is all skiwampus this year. Bronco has been known for his stingy defenses and this year, teams are averaging 26 pts per game. Virginia, usually stout in the run to keep their defense fresh has ZERO 100 yd. RBs on the team…Not a single running back has had a 100 yd. game this year. Their best reciever, Wicks has 847 yards, 3 TDs…Their best RB, Taulapapa has 258, 2 TDs.
When a team is single dimension, they should on paper be easy to plan for. Pressure the QB, make him look over his shoulder and ruff him up. Unfortunately, BYU is statistically one of the lowest rated squads to pressure QBs
Virginia and 4 year QB Armstrong vs. BYU’s Tuiaki defense, advantage Virginia
BYU’s balanced running/air attack vs. Va.'s porous D? advantage BYU
Can BYU keep up with Virginia’s quick scoring air attack?
Sitake will try to win the TOP in this game with long scoring drives. But will fail miserably if we don’t pressure Armstrong. Still wondering who stole our blitzing soul and replaced it with our worn out drop back 8???
Keep Va below 30 and BYU wins the game!
Sorry but I have seen enough, and VA wins 34-31
