    Max Hall who is the first undrafted rookie qb to start an NFL game this early in his career since Jim Zorn in 1978?

    Dennis Pitta who owns every TE receiving record in NCAA history?

    or

    Austin Collie who was well on his way to a pro bowl in his second season and has become an elite NFL receiver before suffering concussions in back to back games?

    Not sure which one is "not good".


    I think we've already seen Max's pro career. He got lucky to be on an NFL team with no quarterbacks.... they played all the prospects they had throughout the year... and they again are left with no quarterbacks. He still has this interesting picture that he had taken with "friends" though. (not that there is anything wrong with that)

    • Based solely on the last five years of the rivalry, I looked at performance in seven categories: pass yards, rush yards, total yards, first downs, penalties, turnovers, and time of possession.

      Here's what I discovered:
      -In 3 out of 5 years ('05, '07, '08), the winning team "won" 5 of the 7 categories. The other two years was 3 ('09) and 2 ('06; penalties and first downs).
      -The most common categories "won" by the winner: first downs and penalties (4 out of the 5 years; Utah "won" FD in '09 and BYU "won" penalties in '05). Least common: Pass yards; total yards; time of possession (2 out of the 5 years).
      -Utah is 2-0 when winning turnover margin, and 0-3 when they're equal/lost.
      -BYU has "won" penalties 4 of the 5 years (2008).
      -Utah has "won" time of possession every single year.

      Take it with a grain of salt.

        This propensity to mock others by using homosexuals as your foils should be beneath Ute Fans. That it continues to be a common theme is not at all surprising.

        You all are going to soooooo embarrass SU at those PAC-10 cocktail parties.
        Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

        Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

            So Max is not good at football because he is not one of the 20 or so people in the entire world that can consistently perform at a decent level as a QB in the NFL? You might want to use a different word than "good".

            I agree the picture is ridiculous, but I'm a fan of the Stooges so I give them all a pass.

                      Not sure that BJ has even sniffed an NFL sideline let alone serving as waterboy.

                        Which is a point that the PAC-10 will understand shortly.
