What is your favorite Bronco Mendenhall moment at BYU?

I think he then says something to the effect “but if you get a touchdown it’s ok

When he said he was Capt Moroni.

Defensive turnaround from Utah State to SDSU when he took over the D.

100%. He is a brilliant DC. That was a miracle in 1 week.

idacoug

10/24/21 10:16pm

he clearly isn't in charge of Virginia's D then. They stink

He’s not. Howell and Poppinga are.

This is the correct answer. I'll never forget the look of relief on his face

When in his final game he essentially quit on his team

Say what? They almost pulled off the miracle comeback in the LV bowl. That loss

I’m not convinced texbird33 actually watched that game, or even that he likes

I was actually at the game and talked with players on the team 🤷🏻‍♂️

And what did they say? How exactly did he quit?

ColonelMustard

To be fair, Bronco did accept the UVA job before

Hotlanta

That doesn’t count as Bronco quitting on his team. Bronco never quits. Guy is a

The only way he quit that day was by quitting on Tuiloma's knee. Dude was killing it and I am convinced BYU wins if

I expect you’ll be one of those booing Bronco next week?

that was such a fun experience.

This is ridiculous, but I still get nervous watching this thinking that the ref might call Mitch down on the 1-yd line.

Not solely a "Bronco moment," but I was impressed with Bronco's team when we throttled Oregon in the 2006 Vegas Bowl.

Um, Bronco has a better record overall against Utah than Kalani does

I don’t dispute what you’re saying. I just think it’s a stretch regarding Utah
