Ham All-American

From the 2001 season:
*196 yards and 5 TDs against Colorado State
*172 yards and 4 TDs against Wyoming
*207 yards and 4 TDs against Utah State

Williams has all the records, but Luke had the single best season of any RB in BYU history, IMO.

TA had a great game against USU, 2021 I think. Certainly not the best, but nobody could stop him.

Umm. Taysom vs Texas? Wait, not RB....but it should still count!

I think TA vs Virginia is the best performance by a skill position player ever

Puka didn't have as many yards, but his game vs bsu in 2022 was insane.
