    He had like 40 yards going in to the fourth quarter last year.

    Then he rushed for like 120 when BYU's defense packed up and went home before the game was over.

      The only thing preventing this from getting really ugly is the Utes have a great defense and BYU is starting Riley Nelson, also has a terrible oline, and none of their RBs worry me.
      You and Port should form a club.

        Then BYU should not worry about him. I'd worry more about the BYU players' heart.

        Now that I think about it, I hope BYU doesn't worry about White at all.

            I take that to mean that JWIV won't play on Saturday.

              When the game was still in question, White had 12 carries for 13 yards against BYU. After the 5th turnover and the score was 30 something to 10, BYU's defense laid down and White ran all over them in the 4th.

              And I dont care what Bronco says, they did quit.

                Why won't he play? Is he injured??

                  Well, my point is, he's not the reason you won the game last year. He smeared on a couple long runs late in the game to make the score even more abyssmal but it was out of hand long before John White did anything of consequence.

                  I'm not dismissing him, because I think he's an outstanding back, but it wasn't anything he did that led to your big win.

                    this is an awesome stat for all games that end mid-way through the 2nd quarter. To hell with those pesky games that go all 4 quarters.

                      Twitter rumors this morning that White would miss the next two games with a bad ankle. As far as I know, there was no mention of it in Utah's press conference today. I did notice that White went out briefly in the 2nd quarter of the USU game for some attention on his ankle, but obviously he returned to play.

                        ah, got it.

                        Well, if he isn't practicing this week, I guess we will have a better idea.

                            You win. JW4 killed BYU last year. Chances are he will do it again.

                              It sure would be nice to have an experienced offensive coordinator right now.
