BYU defense gladly backdrafts on success of Zach Wilson, Cougars’ offense

BYU’s defensive coaches like riding the tailwinds of an explosive offense.

In Zach Wilson and the boys, they trust.

They love playing with leads, with momentum, being able to watch opponents struggle to stop BYU’s offense, punt and get a chance to give the ball back to the beast.

It’s been a formula that’s worked like a charm for No. 8 BYU, now on an 8-0 win streak during a week off to prepare for North Alabama.

Who wouldn’t want to watch an offensive counterpart that basically plays Xbox on game days?

“It’s been phenomenal to see what our offensive guys are doing,” said defensive coordinator Ilaisa Tuiaki.
