BYU's multiple offense ‘spreading the wealth’ with jet sweeps, multiple contributors

PROVO — Under first-year offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes, BYU’s offense is labeled “multiple.”

That refers to the variety of formations and looks from multiple offensive schemes, which certainly was on display in the season-opener last Saturday.

Based on what the Cougars showed in their 28-23 win at Arizona, it could also mean using multiple players.

Ten players caught passes and six took handoffs against the Wildcats, resulting in a balanced attack that produced 209 passing yards and 183 rushing yards.

It’s great for each individual because it’s hard for teams to key on anyone when you have an offense that’s so balanced and there’s so many weapons.
