Does anybody know if this stat is kept by the NCAA or if it can be found on the internets anywhere?
The reason I ask is that Max Hall is 7th in the nation in yards per attempt at 9.2. That is particularly impressive if, as I would assume, BYU is one of the worst teams in the country in yards after catch. BYU's receivers rarely break long runs after catching the ball. I wouldn't be surprised, in fact, if BYU were dead last in that stat.
Hall is completing 68% of his passes and the 9.2 ypa shows that he isn't just dink and dunking his way to the high completion percentage. There isn't QB in the country who has a higher completion percentage and a higher ypa than Hall. And he is doing this - I think - without the extra help many other QBs enjoy from their receivers.
