They always ask the Heisman winner to name the last three, and they can never do it.

I hate that posting these sort of disallows me to attempt them, as I feel I'd do really well.  Oh well.

One of the BYU QBs is definitely Steve Young. 

Robbie Bosco was the one that beat Michigan and won the NC in 84. 

Pretty sure McMahon was in the 70s, while Detmer was in the 90s. But I could be wrong on one or both accounts.

Oversight on my part excluding flutie in 3rd place there.  I wasn't searching for the name of Flutie's predecessor .
