Six consecutive losses. The first time that has happened since 1968. Ben Criddle looked at the film from the loss to Mississippi State to try and identify bigger issues with this BYU football team, so you don’t have to!

Plenty of sequential play calling on the 1st drive, similar formations/personnel w/ PA power look here, putting BYU in another 3rd & short pic.twitter.com/xbvepP2OMF

After no gain on a short side quick screen, MissSt adjusts to our 21 pers, notice the 50 front employed. It's 8vs8 now w/out a QB run threat pic.twitter.com/8njtthe3ZO

3&9/21pers/GunPro/TwinsLT/FBlead. Not a bad play call,if executed well maybe you get 1st down.See cut back lane to field,see Ula miss block. pic.twitter.com/BAt4zYNwsq

We have shown very little pressure this year but did so on 1st down of their 1st drive. Weak side Bow pressure with green dog spy from Sione pic.twitter.com/RYk1gjsPFL

Corbin Kaufusi isn't perfect, but his R/P read /recognition of bubble coupled w/ inside out pursuit is pretty dang attractive to NFL scouts. pic.twitter.com/jCvibx9Pu3

We bring weakside pressure again, love the effort from Grant Jones to finish his assignment, Butch wraps up an athletic QB, Zayne finishes pic.twitter.com/kbJe9ayRRO

Still feel like off man/sit @ sticks &collision tech should be employed by our DB's on 3rd&shorts.We give up too many 3rd down. 8-13 vs.Miss pic.twitter.com/hVUyFCbb3h

Strong side pressure from Fred,great inside move to get Fitz off point. Puls needs to push to swing route 2 allow Hann to get depth&cov slot pic.twitter.com/7niF1xPXUZ

2&10 Alema runs the hitch,ball comes out a bit wobbly if you take a close look,definitely a catchable ball but TM needs to throw spiral too pic.twitter.com/W8UB3Ib6af

Superb play call by Ty Freaking Detmer.BYU's players need to be able to execute their blocks.Dye needs to get up field & break an arm tackle pic.twitter.com/qbXdprUgxU

BYU stacks box on a 3rd down & TakiTaki is able to track Fitz from behind.Butch noticeably hurt on rt arm, Fred also dips block to fill. pic.twitter.com/TR87g8AKBB

As a DB I was always taught "Action away screen to me"
Give me more tunnel screen to Jonah Trinnaman. I love seeing him explode up field pic.twitter.com/WxalrdyrZL

BYU in man free cov, Dayan has a reduced split X to his side running climb route,good cov,just absorb&tug a bit during route,this is PBU IMO pic.twitter.com/CpUmB0qrCI

4&6 2Q from BYU 33. Love the physicality of the coverage, apart from Troy putting his hand on the face mask I think this is solid coverage pic.twitter.com/cjcI5se2sP

LB's when you see the down block, come up and fill that space, a pulling guard will be waiting for you.CB's see what you hit & wrap up a leg pic.twitter.com/SugjYwQ2Fn

Quads left, empty set from offense. 4vs3 & we make no adjustment. Either call off pressure or have Zayne rotate strong leaving Wilcox solo pic.twitter.com/wjlOVvM6ji

One of these days you gotta be able to hit your check downs. Late throw like this is extremely dangerous. Luckily Bushman is a baller. pic.twitter.com/tPRVBLInYU

I have no problem throwing to Micah near RZ, I do have a problem w/ fact that we haven't thrown a ball to Bushman in RZ since Portland game pic.twitter.com/fVgzPC0r9m

2nd 3&long draw to El Bakri. Only averaging 11 points per game, I'd rather take a shot to the end zone on 3rd down. What do we have to lose? pic.twitter.com/dERpPNwBSe

Can't get much better coverage than this. Chris Wilcox has failed much in his youth, but he is improving ladies & gentlemen. pic.twitter.com/JNwDbXgwH1

Great coverage by Chris Wilcox,gives up the inside but makes up the space with his great top end speed. Gets hand in passing lane & gets PBU pic.twitter.com/MUG73FgQ9J

This is what it looks like to hit a check down. Corbin on the pressure from the inside twist. Grant and Troy must make this tackle. Wrap up pic.twitter.com/QGluM0Z4vt

This Miss State reminded me a little of Tulsa game in 07'.They would line up,check our DEF alignment, check to a play call & win that play
