6.5 yards per attempt is not that good. That's what Taysom averaged last year

If he had averaged 8 yards an attempt instead, which is good, he would have had over 500 yards passing. 9 yards/att is really good and 10 or more is great. 7 yards per attempt is pretty average.

Very good point. The loss overshadowed a terrific effort by Stuart

Good thing the rest of his career will be spent in meaningless games.

I was very impressed with what Stew did out there.... ya he had some mistakes

VERY nice to see the passing game back. Makes for longer lasting QB's.

Isn't it fascinating that BYU's offense ROCKS when a backup QB throws around

We're good at what we do, when we do it.

Kuga

He had a good game, unfortunately also the 2 costliest turnovers that sealed

True... fumbles are bad, but picks are worse, and Stewart had 0 that game.

Kuga

10/20/14 2:20pm

How are picks worse? At least if you throw a pick the defense has

SandYFan

I don't see how picks are worse than a lost fumble

With a fumble, usually the D falls on it and that is where they get the ball.

Kuga

10/20/14 2:25pm

Normally when a QB fumbles it the chances are higher that

He had his moments. He also cost us the game with 2 turnovers.

See my comment above...

Since when are picks worse than fumbles?

Again, see my comment above...

Nah, I think Mr. Howell's defense cost us the game by giving up 29 straight.

^^ This. Stewart did his job well. Not perfect, but...

Who will be a better DC? We need to find this person

AF Cougar

10/20/14 2:28pm

Honestly we all just need to be true to ourselves.

Kuga

10/20/14 2:33pm

And not forcing any turnovers themselves

Good point, I didn't think of that.

Kuga

10/20/14 2:34pm

Too bad he's a senior

Perhaps... but Mangum/Hill are back next year.

Kuga

10/20/14 2:31pm

Yeah, next year we're going to need a decent backup QB (assuming Taysom can

McCoy Hill will be in the program another year, and Mangum will come back as a

Great stuff against one of the worse defenses in the FBS.

Deadpool

10/20/14 2:34pm

I disagree... With the offense we run, his reads were ok.

Kuga

10/20/14 2:41pm

UNR's played 7 teams, only 1 of them scored more than BYU did.

Keep in mind, he also had 63 attempts. 400 yards on that many attempts isn't

Completely agree. No qualms with the O except TOs. It's the defense that reeks.

Not worried about the offense like I am about the D

During the game I told my boys the passing looked like the "old" BYU

Hill passed for 308 against UCONN this yr - missed that one.

I don't anyone has anything bad to say about Stewart
