Utah Utes, BYU football highlights
The senior quarterback completed 30 of 36 passes for 303 yards and four touchdowns. He completed 12 straight passes during one first-half stretch.
PLAY OF THE GAME
With Utah leading just 27-24 in the third quarter and BYU on the move, Utes defensive back Robert Johnson intercepted a pass by Max Hall on his own 22-yard line. The play ended the Cougars' last realistic shot at taking the lead in Saturday's game.
KEY CALL
Utah's decision to go for broke before halftime gave it a big momentum boost. Following an interception by Joe Dale, the Utes went for the end zone to try and take control of the game. It worked, as Brian Johnson completed a 32-yard touchdown pass to David Reed to give Utah a 27-17 lead with 21 seconds left before halftime.
QUOTABLE " It's been an amazing season, and we did a tremendous job tonight to have a dream ending."
Paul Kruger, Utah defensive end
