How much of a downgrade do we give to BYU turning to the freshman QB Tanner Mangum? I'd say at least 3 points, maybe 5? Magnum is a PS#8 according to Steele so he was highly rated. Boise sure lucks out here don't they
Perhaps not a lot. BYU with Hill's injury history and losing its runningback, they were trending to more of a pass team, especially with those giraffe wrs. And consider that Magnum got a lot of reps when Hill was still rehabbing. The kid had poise on Saturday and was smart enough to heave the ball on another occasion that got them a field goal and the only other points in the second half for BYU.
