PROVO — BYU's first full-contact scrimmage of spring Thursday ended with the offense executing a long touchdown pass and defensive coordinator Ilaisa Tuiaki walking off the field, joking with the media that it was a good thing he wasn't doing interviews that day.
Cougar coach Kalani Sitake confirmed Tuiaki's impression to the media regarding the notion that the offense won the day, stating, "Defensively, I'm not real happy about it, but (the offense) — I think they probably had the upper hand today."
Offensive highlights included receiver Rickey Shumway making a diving, one-handed catch, Inoke Lotulelei taking a fly sweep for a big gain, and Tariq Buchanan catching a Beau Hoge pass that went for a 46-yard touchdown.
