Know your Opponent: Previewing the Cougars offense

As many of you know, the football program of the BYU Cougars had a very consistent formula for most of the last decade. Lean on a great defense and rack up yards through the air. That formula came by the way of coach Bronco Mendenhall, who was a staple with the BYU program before jettisoning to Virginia in 2015. Since the Mendenhall departure, Kalani Sitake has tried his best to implement a run-first system and last year all but abandoned the pass. The early results? Not great. BYU wrapped up last season ranking 121 in Off. S&P+.
