press conference
in the post-match press conference, Ratcliffe makes clear that after going up 2 goals, focusing on defense was a tactical decision based on how dangerous BYU is in transition, citing their speed and offensive skill.
Though it looked like we were being outplayed, the tactic worked, though he would have liked us to have kept the ball more of the time. Florida State poses the same problem, but probably even worse. We'll likely need to do the same if we get ahead of Florida State, but the question on Monday will be, can we score on Florida State? And in a more wide-open game for both sides, can we score before Florida State does?
(BTW, Doms and Wesley are so impressive in the press conference -- great representatives of Stanford)
