Morning links: Playoff matchup will pit BYU football’s top recruit against Ty Detmer’s nephew; Taysom Hill trucks a defender

It’s a football matchup made in BYU quarterback heaven. Well, pretty close.

Still, one Arizona high school football playoff game this Friday should draw interest from Cougar fans. In the Arizona Conference 6A semifinals, BYU 4-star quarterback Jacob Conover will lead Chandler High against Highland High and Kaleb Herbert, the nephew of Cougar legend Ty Detmer.

Last weekend, Herbert threw a 44-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter and completed a two-point conversion as Highland beat Liberty 15-12 to advance.

Kaleb Herbert hits Noah Burdick for a TD. Burdick somehow keeps his feet in bounds. Two-point is good.
