2000s All-Decade Team voting: Running Backs


Now that the football season is over, we’re going to try something new . This is your chance to help choose the CougarStats all-decade BYU football team.

Vote for the CougarStats.com all-decade team for 2000-2009. We’ll start out with running backs and in one week we’ll move on to another position until we have a full line-up. Nominees are selected based on stats, all-conference selections or because I just felt like it. Write-in votes accepted as comments to this blog post.

Later, we’ll select all-decade teams for the 90s, 80s and so on. Players who crossed over two decades can only be selected once. So, if Owen Pochman, for example, is not selected as the kicker of the decade for the 200s, he will be on the ballot for the 90s. If he wins for the 200s, then he will be kept off of the ballot for the 90s.

Here are the running back nominees. Pick 2. Curtis Brown, JJ DiLuigi, Luke Staley, Harvey Unga and Fui Vakapuna.

Week 10 stat list update


CAREER PASSING YARDS

Riley Nelson‘s 56 passing yards vs. Idaho were enough to pass up Eldon ‘The Phantom’ Fortie for 27th in career passing at BYU.

SEASON PASSING YARDS

Last week Nelson passed up Jake Heaps in passing for the season. This week, Heaps passed up Nelson.

CAREER RUSHING

It was a bad week for the Phantom. JJ DiLuigi passed him to move into 11th in career rushing yards.

CAREER RECEIVING

One catch was enough to move McKay Jacobson into a tie with Jay Miller for 25th.

JJ DiLuigi has the same number of receptions in his career (86) as Luke Staley (and Daniel Coats, and Scott Pettis).

CAREER RECEIVING YARDS

Jacobson moved up one spot to 17th, ahead of Jonny Harline.

CAREER TACKLES

Jordan Pendleton finished his career in the 111th spot for career tackles at BYU with 130.

CAREER TOTAL OFFENSE

Jake Heaps moved in to 16th place, passing Marc Lyons.

INTERCEPTIONS

So far, the team is averaging 1.3 interceptions per game. That would be the highest average since 2006.

CAREER QB RATING

Heaps’ rating moved up a bit from 110.3 to 112.7, Nelson’s also increased from 147.7 to 148.6. Heaps’ career rating compares with Jason Beck and Bret Engemann. Nelson’s is similar to Robbie Bosco and John Walsh.

SEASON QB RATING

Nelson’s rating for 2011 (159.7) is identical to Brandon Doman‘s rating in 2001.

TEAM SCORING

A good thumping of Idaho lifted BYU’s points-per-game margin from +3.6 to +6.7.

PAT

If Justin Sorensen can go three more games without missing an extra point he will have the BYU record from most PATs without a miss in a season.
