It was a horrible game for him, but he had at least had a little more impact arguably.

Either way, that was 34 years ago, and Hunters ranks with that one as an all-time stinker

What Heisman winner ever had less impact on their post-Heisman bowl game than

I thought it was pretty common for the winner to have a meh bowl game...like the sports illustrated curse

I’m grateful he was willing to play. He’s the man in the arena. You’re

He had their only positive plays on offense and it’s not like BYU threw the ball

He separated both shoulders in that game. Loved his competitiveness, but he was beat up badly

Hunter had 106 yards as a WR that also plays defense. That’s a lot more

Perhaps. But I think you have to factor in Detmers injuries as well.

Goliath

12/29/24 8:25am

Why would you factor injuries into impact while analyzing impact on a game?

I guess for a more full picture. Doesn't seem hard to understand

Goliath

12/29/24 8:32am

Well then maybe a better question would have helped. You asked for impact on a

He was actually really good. He shut down his man all game long. That’s the

You said impact. The only positives for Colorado on both sides of the ball were

BYU pretty much never threw at Hunter. That’s a pretty big impact

He was obviously the best athlete on the field. Dude is legit.

0’s for a CB is usually a good thing…and 106 is more than his per game average.

Basically his average. He doesn't get extra impact points just because his avg

It is when he’s a lockdown corner on the other side of the ball. That doesn’t

...which even if true, basically has no impact on the game

Goliath

It significantly impacts every passing play. Weird fight you are fighting here

ATX

Huh? Of course it does

PHXSUNS31

12/29/24 9:18am

Lol. Nope, shutting down half the field has ZERO impact on the game.

Yukon

12/29/24 10:03am

Haha. I sure wish we always had lock down corners to have no impact on the game.

Ozymandias

12/29/24 10:21am

I think you are just discounting his defensive impact.
