BYU football: Predicting the Cougars defensive depth chart

When it comes to BYU football, we know that defense will be their calling card. Kalani Sitake and Ilaisa Tuiaki are talented defensive schemers, and the Cougars switch to a 4-3 defense is one that maximizes their strengths.

After having one of the best defenses in the nation a year ago, it looks like BYU football will be even better in 2017.

Here’s what they defense will probably look like this fall.

Defensive Tackle

Starters: Tevita Mo’unga, Kesni Tausinga

Backups/In The Mix: Handsome Tanielu, Merrill Taliauli, Solomone Wolfgramm

There’s a lot of quality depth on the interior of the defensive line for the Cougars.
