In the First Quarter utes have the ball following a Tanner Mangum fumble. And joe williams eventually breaks the plane from one yard out. They reviewed it. Call stands. Utes lead 70. Still in the first the utes already scored on a pick six from tevin carter. And its carter again he picks it off runs it down to the one. And sets up this. Williams again finds the endzone from short distance. The utes grab a 210 lead. Still in the first mangum drops back. Hes looking for someone on the right side, when Dominique Hatfield picks this one off. And hatfield goes 46 yards the other way for the score. That put the utes up 280. And they would finish the First Quarter up 350. But byu would respond. Just before the mangum rolls out to the right, and finds remington peck. Peck just squeezes past the pylon. And byu gets on the board heading into the half, 357. In the Third Quarter mangum throws the quick pass to the right. And Francis Bernard takes it the rest of the way for the score. Cougars cut the lead to 21. In the Fourth Quarter now b yu facing 4th and 13. Mangum finds an open Devon Blackmon deep downfield. Blackmon makes the catch, and that sets up this. Mangum throws over the middle he finds nick kurtz for the touchdown. Byu cuts it to 14. Later in the fourth byu has the ball back. Its mangum again. This time he gets it done ont the ground. The ball comes out, but the refs say he broke the goal line first. Cougars cut it to seven cougars now need a defensive stop wth no timeouts left. But williams picks up the big first down here to ice it. And the utes hang on to win the we had enough in the tank to get the win, which is all that matters. Thats the only thing that matters. And im very proud of our guys. Very proud of the seniors. Its great to send the seniors off with a tenwin season, guaranteed top 20 ranking, probably somewhere inside the top 20, and a win in a rivalry game. Our team tried really really hard all the way to the very end. And maybe if we make one more stop, it gets interesting and we throw the ball into the endzone a time or two, and see what happens. For byu head coach Bronco Mendenhall this was his final game as coach of the cougars. He is leaving byu after 11 seasons there, and heading to the acc to coach the virginia cavaliers next well be right news at ten. Have a great
