Do Your 1/11

In the series of these teams, things tend to go wrong, when players miss assignments, try to do too much or play hero ball. While it is not realistic to expect every player to do their assignment perfectly on every single play, if each player does their 1/11th, BYU will have a great chance to win this game.

There are at least four games in the nine game losing streak that could be attributed to a player either trying to do more than their 1/11th or not doing their part on one particular play.

If blockers do their blocks and running backs run through the holes created for them, I think that BYU Football will have a great chance to win this game.
