Thursday Trivia: Three 500 Yard Rushers

The correct answer to the last trivia question "Steve Young became only the second player in NCAA Division 1-A football to do what in the 1983 season opener at Baylor?" is pass for 300 yards and run for 100 yards in the same game. Young had 351 passing and 113 rushing. Archie Manning was the first to do in 1969 with Ole Miss.

On to this week's question. J.J. Di Luigi (917 yards), Bryan Kariya (537), and Joshua Quezada (505) all rushed for over 500 yards this past season. It was the second time in BYU history that three players rushed for over 500 yards in the same season. Naturally, that makes this week's question:
What year was the first time that 3 BYU players rushed for 500 yards or more?
Leave your answer in the comments section. Come back next week when the answer is revealed and a new trivia question is asked.
