I think the secret formula to most any great season is having the same QB for all the games. Even better if it is at least their second season playing most of the games.
2004 – Smith started every game (undefeated)
2008 – Johnson started every game (undefeated)
2019 – Huntley started every game (11-3) Losses to USC, Oregon and Texas (those losses don’t look bad from a name perspective
What other years has a Utah QB played every game? And what were the records? Those three definitely stuck out.
The only other year which sticks out to me was possibly 1994. Details? Couldn’t find on http://www.utahutes.com
