Mangum should be starting. Knock 30 IQ points off of Tim Tebow and you have Taysom Hill. He has terrible pocket awareness and runs into sacks in seemingly critical moments. I like the new coach, but he makes poor decisions and gambles too often when he has a great defense to back him up. On the road at Boise State, lets run a fake punt out of our endzone after our defense scores 2 tds and forces 5 turnovers. Starting Hill is a legacy move of respect. I don't condemn the gesture, but be fair to the rest of the players on the team and play the guy who improves your chances of winning. Hill should be utilized in short yardage situations like Oklahoma did with Blake Bell. Mangum with the tall receivers and Williams would be potent, especially with a nasty defense backing them. If I were a BYU fan I'd be upset. They should have just beaten Boise on the road, the defense carried them, but poor coaching decisions and QB play cost them again.
