Bryant - 9 INTs, 35 PBUs over 52 games
Gardner - 9 INTs, 16 PBUs over 32 games
Stingley - 6 INTs, 20 PBUs over 25 games
Elam - 5 INTs, 20 PBUs over 30 games
Booth - 3 INTs, 9 PBUs over 25 games

From what I read though, Bryant only has 4.5 speed, which is slower than preferred for an outside CB nowadays. I could see that keeping him lower than some of these other guys if true.

He was targeted a ton more, IIRC, hence the disparity. Because I didn't watch every UC game the past 2 years, I'm mainly going off of others, so it may be more opinion and less accurate.

Did want to bring up, Leon Hall (71 PD, 18 INTs) had more picks+PsD when Joseph (56 PD, 14 INTs) was here, but Joseph isn't the better cover guy and had the better ball skills.
