Sloppy. Careless. Frustrating. Despite all of the negatives, it was a Utah victory in a nasty rivalry game against the Cougars. While we still don’t know everything at only two weeks into the 2016 season here are four things we learned from the Utah, BYU Holy War.
1. Defense will be the glue this season
Without the defense, Utah would have been absolute toast against BYU. The defensive line created turnovers by putting the pressure on BYU quarterback Taysom Hill forcing him to throw three interceptions and held him to only 185 passing yards. Only 13 points were allowed by the defense despite having to bail out the Utah offense several times.
