I think you are just discounting his defensive impact.

He doesn’t come close to winning Heisman with his offensive numbers alone this year…it’s the combination.

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

Probably the wrong board for that question

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

Detmer at least handled most every snap and had 120 yards of offense

Goliath

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

califcougar

12/29/24 8:19am

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

califcougar

12/29/24 8:34am

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

ATX

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.

PHXSUNS31

12/29/24 8:31am

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

12/29/24 9:11am

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.
