Provo • Just a week out from the season opener against Utah, the BYU Cougars used more caution than aggression on Wednesday as the final scrimmage was used more for mock game situations than deciding position battles.
BYU coach Kalani Sitake said he chose to forego any live situations to make sure his team was healthy going into the season.
“We’ve already had a lot of physical days in fall camp,” he said. “In the past we have scrimmaged young guys at this point, but we chose not to do that because we had a few guys get hurt in the past and it hurt us in the long run with the prep squad.
