We’ve all heard the jokes. Tim Couch might be one of, if not the biggest bust in NFL history. The former 1st overall pick only made it five seasons in the NFL, throwing 67 interceptions to 64 touchdowns. The Kentucky football QB didn’t live up to the lofty expectations placed on him.
It’s unfortunate that Couch’s struggles in the NFL clouded his dominance in college football. You really can’t tell the story of college football, especially in the 1990s, without writing at least one chapter on the Kentucky football legend.
Couch played three seasons with the Wildcats, but his sophomore and junior years were extraordinary.
