Alex Moran (Brooks): A Junior starting quarterback, acting Captain, from Cheyenne, Wyoming. He was the first 10,000 yard passer in Wyoming High School history. Unlike the rest of the characters, Alex does not see college football as a stepping stone for the NFL and is content to spend his days as a back-up player and a life as an "Average Joe" once he graduates from college. Instead, he is dedicated to having as much fun as humanly possible while in college, which includes getting drunk and having sex. He embraces being the back-up quarterback in season 1 and doesn't want to start. In the second season finale he begins dating Mary Jo, but this ends once she turns out to be a lesbian. He lives at the Goat House with Thad and Sammy, who use it also as a frequent place to hold parties. As of Season 3, Alex holds the school passing touchdown record for a single game with 7 touchdowns, a record previously held by John Elway. His junior year he became starting quarterback. He wanted to be red shirted at first, then he saw the perks of being Blue Mountain State's starting quarterback so he decided to keep his role. After episode 4 of season 3 "The Peak" he realizes that he can go far in football. He decides that he should work towards playing in the NFL.
