He played pretty sparingly as a freshman, so no.
And last year, of course, he was a junior, so he wouldn't have been eligible.

On a scale of one to 10 how likely do we start 3-1 next year and start ranked.

I think Utah, Tenn, and USC are all winnable. But probably we'll be favored in

Haven't beat Utah since 2009. Haven't beat a team at home better than #117

Utah will be the easiest game out of our first 4 games.

Utah might be the best of your first 4 opponents.
displacedute

Utah reportedly has a very weak O-Line.
Richbyu
4/15/19 10:02am
Utah's QB and RB are better than yours.
displacedute

LOL! Thanks for the laugh.

Utah's elite starting RB is Moss.

The guy who blew out his knee?

That's the one.

Since when is a torn meniscus a blown out knee?

Don’t they have their starting RB back?
Alsippi89
4/15/19 11:40am
Yes.
displacedute
4/15/19 11:42am
RB, you can easily make that argument. But stats say Zach Wilson is better.
jdub
4/15/19 11:48am
Raw stats say they're essentially equal.
displacedute
4/15/19 12:06pm
By "essentially equal", you mean after adjusting for your bias. Just taking the QB rating alone, Wilson is better.
jdub
4/15/19 12:10pm
No, I mean before.
displacedute
4/15/19 12:42pm
RB maybe. QB? Not buying it. Huntley is good, not great. Wilson - higher ceiling
DraperCoug22
4/15/19 1:53pm
So far Huntley's shown himself better.
displacedute
4/15/19 2:08pm
Did Huntley get ranked as 3rd best freshman QB in the country? Didn't think so.
DraperCoug22
4/15/19 2:35pm
He played pretty sparingly as a freshman, so no.
displacedute
4/15/19 2:43pm
Oh no, Bd7thCal didn't like that I slammed his Ute QB. Huntley is average.
DraperCoug22
4/15/19 4:26pm
Better than Wilson.

Huntley gets very scared out there. Pass on Huntley.

I'm not convinced that Utah is better than USC, Washington and Tennessee
Richbyu

I could give you a stat dump. In fact, let's do that.

What is it with Ute fans always leaving a dump in weird places?

ESPN's FPI considers Utah better than USC this year.

I repeat. Utah is a decent mid-level PAC12 team. But can't hold a candle to

Moss is coming back from a major knee injury.

Arguing specifics is great. Arguing program history is silly, and that's what you went to.

Moss had a knee scope for torn cartilage. No structural damage to any ligaments.

How did he look during spring practice?
Richbyu
4/15/19 12:20pm
He looked just as good as Wilson did. In large part BYU expectations are based

A RB that can't run (blown out knee) is a tough thing to deal with.

As I said above, a torn meniscus that was scoped is hardly the same thing as a

You're not wrong. I think the first 8 games you're aiming for 5-3.

No way. They win at least 1 or 2 of the first 5.
