PROVO — What did we learn about BYU football after the second major scrimmage of fall camp on Thursday?
Well, first, the defense got mad, motivated, got called out and responded to a thrashing the offense delivered earlier.
Second, at this stage, the defense pretty much knows the offensive plays and thus, the prediction factor increased dramatically. Routes were jumped, pressure worked and players simply played harder. The results were a pair of interceptions and a trio of fumble recoveries.
