BYU First: 10,000+ Yard Passer + 3,000+ Yard Rusher

BYU's Fields First 10,000+ Yard Passer and 3,000+ Yard Rusher
This article points out that BYU is fielding, for the first time, a 10,000 yard passer and 3,000 yard rusher. Beck is second only to Ty Detmer for passing yards. He is also poised to beat Steve Young's passing efficiency record. Another record set by McMahon is ready to fall. He has the size to be able to play well in the NFL - bigger than Troy Smith but smaller than Brady Quinn.

Couple that with the fact that BYU's running game is also setting records and it makes you step back a little. Maybe this is good for a small potatoes school like BYU. Do the big BC$ schools have dual assets like this year to year (or this year)?

I'm thinking the career numbers might not mean much (other than that they have been playing competently for three years each). 'Course, Beck is #2 on the QB rating list, though certainly Quinn is far better.
