Errrrr, try again...
BYU's first drive of the 3rd quarter against Houston (based on ESPN play by play stats)

1st and 10 - Jamaal rush for 5 yard gain
2nd and 5 - Jamaal rush for 5 yard gain
1st and 10 - Taysom rush for 9 yard gain
2nd and 1 - Hine rush for no gain
3rd and 1 - Taysom rush for no gain
4th and 1 - Incomplete pass

So, the 2nd half pass first mentality resulted in 5 straight rushes before the first pass? Yes, I'm aware that "TH Rush" could mean a pass play that turned into a scramble. But plenty of them are zone read plays that TH kept.

2nd possession of 3rd quarter... 12 yard rush by Taysom, 1 yard rush, interception. (2 rushes, pass)
3rd possession of 3rd quarter... TH rush, TH rush, JW rush, TH rush, TH pass, TH rush, AH rush, TH pass, TH rush (7 rushes, 2 passes)

Again, I'm fully aware that some of those TH rushes are pass plays. But not all of them.

We came out in the 3rd quarter much more run heavy than we did at the beginning of the game.
