Boise State Broncos 4-2-5 Defense (2002)

The defensive coordinator for the 2002 Boise State Broncos football team was Ron Collins. He was in his second season with the Broncos.

Collins' defense was one of the best in the country in 2002. The Broncos allowed just 15.4 points per game, which was ranked fourth in the nation. The defense was also ranked second in the nation in total defense, allowing just 293.5 yards per game.

The Broncos' defense was led by a number of talented players, including linebacker Dustin Dwelley and defensive back Gerald Alexander. Dwelley was named the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) Defensive Player of the Year in 2002, and Alexander was named to the All-WAC First Team.

The Broncos' defense was a major reason why the team was so successful in 2002. The Broncos finished the season with a record of 12-1, and they won the WAC championship. The Broncos also advanced to the Humanitarian Bowl, where they defeated the Iowa Hawkeyes by a score of 33-30.

The 4-2-5 defense is a defensive formation that uses four down linemen, two linebackers, and five defensive backs. It is a variation of the 4-3 defense, but with an extra defensive back instead of a linebacker.

The 4-2-5 defense is designed to be strong against both the run and the pass. The four down linemen provide a strong pass rush and can also stop the run. The two linebackers are responsible for covering the middle of the field and stopping the run. The five defensive backs are responsible for covering the receivers and preventing them from getting open.
