Provo • Freshman quarterback Zach Wilson rightfully received the bulk of the attention and praise after leading BYU to a 49-23 win over Hawaii late Saturday night at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
But he got a lot of help, including some much-needed support from the senior he replaced in the starting lineup, Tanner Mangum, who also happens to be his roommate.
“Luckily, I had a lot of help from my teammates. Everyone knows a quarterback can’t be successful without a good line or good receivers, or shoot, even a good scheme,” Wilson, 19, said after becoming the youngest quarterback to start a game for BYU.
