BYU quarterback Tanner Mangum reminds UCLA Coach Jim Mora of Johnny Manziel

Jim Mora, UCLA's football coach, might not have known who Tanner Mangum was three weeks ago. But he surely does now.

Mangum came off the bench for Brigham Young two weeks ago against Nebraska, replacing injured starter Taysom Hill, to heave a Hail Mary pass that resulted in a last-second victory.

With Hill out for the season, Mangum started against Boise State last week and threw another final-minute touchdown pass to earn the Cougars an upset victory.

"He makes plays down the field," Mora said. "He's got kind of those Johnny Manziel qualities. He runs around and slings it and they come up with it.
