Utah returns over 1000 receiving yards if we include the TEs.

Here's what Utah has coming back to catch passes (everyone with at least 5 catches):

Singleton. 33 for 464 and 4 TD
Wilson. 15 for 183 and 2 TD
Simpkins. 19 for 158 and 1 TD
Fulks. 6 for 57
McCormick. 11 for 109
Young. 5 for 21
Fakailoatonga. 16 for 171
Handley. 33 for 454 and 4 TD
plus Carrington (for Oregon). 112 for 1919 yards and 15 TDs

Total, without Carrington, is 138 catches for 1617 yards and 11 TDs. With Carrington it's 250 for 3536 and 26 TDs.

Here's what BYU has:

Balderee. 13 for 156 and 2.
MLP. 33 for 389 and 3.
Marshall. 7 for 66 and 1
Hifo. 11 for 58
Trinnaman. 28 for 321 and 1.

So that's 92 catches for 990 yards and 7 TDs.

That's why Utah's WRs are at least more experienced (and I'm a Ute, so I'd argue more talented) than BYU's, and that was without Carrington.

I've already publicly stated my guarantee that BYU will beat Utah this year, but

Three of our WRs run sub 4.4s

None of your WR run sub 4.4s.

He meant when timed with Ute stopwatches. Those always shave off a little time.

Yeah I think Kalani and co learned some things about 40 timing from the U

I rewatched the 2016 game again and was impressed with Troy Williams

He got worse as the season wore on, and there's a reason for that:

This sounds so familiar to a rant I heard at UDA leadership.

7/31/17 2:21pm

Lackluster? Oh come on buddy, at least do a little research.

7/31/17 2:25pm

I agree that BYU's receivers are as untested as Utah's secondary.

displacedute

True, but who are those receivers going up against? That's the entire point

7/31/17 3:37pm

Zero experience is absolutely false.

7/31/17 3:41pm

You do realize that we have our own fair share of 4* players in our secondary?

7/31/17 3:45pm

I'd take Troy Warner.

7/31/17 3:59pm

Also, name the "fair share of 4* guys" in your secondary

7/31/17 4:09pm

We have 3 just in our secondary. See post below. SMH.

7/31/17 4:15pm

Okay. Your defensive backs are more talented than Utah's.

7/31/17 4:23pm

Oh, and Mangum is clearly much better than Troy Williams.

7/31/17 4:27pm

The WR edge is to Utah by a wide margin.

Assuming Carrington can stay out of jail....

wilsdad

7/31/17 4:57pm

We only have to keep him clean for 6 weeks for it to matter in this game.

That's funny....

7/31/17 8:49pm

Trinnaman only had 1 TD vs the back end of BYU's schedule?

Actually it was in the first month of the season.

Do you know something nobody else knows about Chase Hansen?

7/31/17 4:16pm

How is that wrong? Ballard is a transfer and has zero experience at Utah.

7/31/17 4:27pm

You know, I'll admit this right now.

I give you guys the edge in terms of talent and demonstrated coaching.

Man, I'm still laughing at you. Who knew Utah was so loaded with 5* guys

Hmm. Hansen played last week...
