‘We had the upper hand today’: BYU’s Bear Bachmeier-led offense outperforms defense in 1st scrimmage of fall camp
Here's what happened when BYU football coach Kalani Sitake put his veteran team through a 102-play scrimmage Saturday at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
BYU's Bear Bachmeier-led offense outperformed the defense in the first scrimmage of fall camp, according to coach Kalani Sitake. The 11-on-11 scrimmage, which Sitake referred to as "sparring," showcased both "live" plays and "thud" plays. Sitake believed the offense had a slight edge due to big plays made by receivers like Kyler Kasper and senior Tiger Bachmeier.
Both sides had moments of success, but the offense seemed to benefit from the pass game and run game, with the line of scrimmage being physically intense. Defensive end Cade Uluave acknowledged the offense's strong performance but noted there were still opportunities for defensive improvement. The defense, however, remains limited without junior safety Faletau Satuala, who broke his foot in June.
