Last chance to see Zach Wilson. 7 PM EST UCF vs BYU. ESPN 12-22 Boca Raton Bowl

[Anybodyhome]

BYU had the swagger and was letting the world know they'd play anyone, anywhere. So they got on a plane and went to Conway, SC. I'd be willing to bet the BYU coaching staff had to show the players where Conway, SC is on a map before they got there.

BYU was a 10.5 point favorite and had won their games by over 30 points per. BYU's O-line outweighed CCU's D-line by about 30lbs per man. 

I'll be the first to admit this was the only game I've seen Wilson play, and I wasn't all that impressed. Sure, he was good and made some throws, but he was getting pressured from a much smaller and quicker team for the first time this season and he got that deer- headlights look going.

He is small. I know he's listed at 6'3" but he sure doesn't look like it on the field. He plays small. I'm not sold, and I may go back and watch that game again just to focus on his play. I want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but my gut is telling me otherwise.

BYU's O-Line was getting bullied that game and the play calling was horrendous. The coaches were trying to run the ball down CC's throat rather than let Wilson's arm take over. He had some eye popping throws, his receivers were not helping him out at all. He drove them down the field and put them into position to win with some absolute strikes. Not something we can say TeddyBear does for us.

He's small and obviously teams' medical staffs are going to have to figure out if his shoulder is a problem. But watching his tape back-to-back with Fields' makes his decision-making speed and ability to create on the move stand out even more than usual. He's so much fun. Makes special decisions. I think he's the QB2 in this draft.

In regards to Fields? If so, i can definitely see why. He has talent and truly i see a lot of Cam when i watch him play. However, I've seen that movie before. I want something new. Fields takes way too long to let go of the ball which scares me away.

Yes sir. In regards to Fields.

I'm not sold on him at all, so I will definitely be watching. He even looked pedestrian at times in his last game vs San Diego State.

He has a great offensive line to protect him, that is a red flag for me when he potentially may go to a team with poor protection and the guys getting to him are much bigger.

He still looks small on the field, like Teddy. Two throwing arm surgeries...idk man.

I won't even get into the Mormon thing, but yeah...

I don’t know if he or not...a lot of the athletes aren’t Mormon.   They got a scholarship 

jim McMahon  lol was not Mormon as an example 

Wilson flat out reminds me too much of Clausen. Seen that show before

Wilson has arm talent that Jimmy never had.

Clausen? You must not have watched much of Wilson. Two TOTALLY different players. Maybe you're referring to their looks lol

Clausen looked like the actor Evan Jones.

Just did a quick search regarding Wilson and Mormonism and found this gem;

Well, Wilson went to prom — accompanied by two BYU cheerleaders.

I'm sold.

Looks 

dorkey looking.  Like from a 1980s Olivia Newton John exercise tape 

[trueblade]

It's cool to watch, but I don't know that you'll get the whole story without the All22. Does college football have something like Game Pass where you can access to the All22?

Unlikely available without some crazy amount of investment.

Expect him to look overly dominant tonight against a porous UCF defense. This is a game that will have fans buzzing and beating the drum for him.
