Tyler Graunke and Colt Brennan are listed on the University of Hawai'i football team's depth chart as "No. 1" and "Or." But there are several difference between the top candidates competing to succeed record-setting quarterback Tim Chang.

TYLER GRAUNKE

40 time: "On a good day, high 4.6 (seconds)."

Bench press: 225 pounds 5 times.

Squat lift: 375 pounds.

Famous relatives: None.

Tattoos: None.

Superpowers wish: "To fly. Flying would be unbelievable. I wouldn't have to get on a plane. I could just jump up and fly around wherever I wanted to go."

Favorite entertainer: Quarterback Michael Vick of the Atlanta Falcons.

"The O.C." or "Laguna Beach": "Let's say, 'The O.C.' People from Laguna Beach are (not macho)."

Compared to: "Some people say Brett Favre" of the Green Bay Packers.

COLT BRENNAN

Hometown: Irvine, Calif.

Class: Third-year sophomore.

Famous relatives: "Do you know that big fish (mounted) at the King Kamehameha Hotel? My uncle (Gil Kramer) caught that."

Tattoos: None.

Superpowers wish: "Flying would be the greatest experience in the world. It would be great to just jump up and fly."

FAVORITE ENTERTAINER: ACTOR JIM CARREY

"The O.C." or "Laguna Beach": "I was born in Laguna Beach. My little sister is friends with all of those girls (on 'Laguna Beach'). She's a senior in high school back in Laguna. She goes to parties and sees Matt (Leinart, USC's quarterback and a friend of the cast members) there. It's kind of funny. So I'll have to pick ... 'The O.C.' "

Compared to: "Brett Favre is what I've heard a lot. I used to wear No. 4 a lot. People said I played like him."
