has regressed under him. He certainly didn't look good against Portland St to start this year, but that was the last game he played completely healthy against mediocre competition. His numbers were okay against UCLA (30/47, 244), but UCLA wasn't nearly as good as their early ranking suggested. Numbers were better against BSU, but again, BSU probably wasn't as good as their record suggests. They beat Washington to open the year, lost to BYU, got clobbered by Utah State and lost a couple others middle/lower MWC teams. I think TM also had the benefit in the early games of there being very little for opposing teams to look at to prepare for him. I think he also benefited the entire season by having beanstalks at receiver who went up and got everything over shorter defensive backs.
Again, things seem so bad it's hard to not place blame everywhere, but I don't think Ty's making quarterbacks worse.
