Cougarclaw the 40 yard floater wasn't the best throw from Nelson, but he wasn't running forward he was running sideways so he wasn't winding up for the throw. He also didn't throw with all his weight on his front foot, because after the throw he took a step back right after the throw, so that also shows he wasn't running forward or had all his weight on his front foot.
oh good, so that means his range is closer to 45 yards? lol.
I have not kept close rack last year, but has Jake Heaps ever completed a 40 yard pass at BYU in his 14 or so games? If so, was it 40 yards at point of catch.
One of you stat research guys ought to post the 5 longest throws in 2010 and again in 2011 and let's see who threw them and just how ong our long game really is with Heaps or Nelson. I am guessing - not so much.
Heaps completed a 62 yard TD pass to Ashworth @ CSU last year. A lot of that was YAC, but the ball was in the air a good long ways too.
