1st & 10 at USU 25
USU has 7 blockers (8 if QB runs)
BYU has 5 in the box. USU makes the correct call as it looks like a run but gets a false start.
(9:56 - 1st) UTAH ST Penalty, False Start (-5 Yards) to the UthSt 20
I can't tell you how huge this is. When you are conceding 3-4 yards as a given, you can get a three and out at 15 yards where 10 yards it will be a first down. Anderson is rightly pretty ticked off at this point.

USU has 6 blockers (7 if QB runs)
BYU has 5 in the box. USU makes the correct call BUT RUNS WIDE????????. Pure insanity for USU here.
(9:45 - 1st) Calvin Tyler Jr. run for a loss of 1 yard to the UthSt 19
2nd & 16 at USU 19
USU has 5 blockers (6 if QB runs)
BYU has 5 in the box. This was going to be a pass but as far as I can tell they were really only trying to get BYU to jump on a passing down. Batty Bit.
(9:30 - 1st) Legas, Cooper pass incomplete to Cobbs, Brian, PENALTY BYU offside 5 yards to the UTAHST24, NO PLAY.
2nd & 11 at USU 24
USU has 5 blockers (6 if QB runs)
BYU has 5 in the box. USU probably makes the correct call and runs but you are behind the chains already. DO NOT GET BEHIND THE CHAINS AGAINST BYU.
(8:52 - 1st) Cooper Legas run for 2 yds to the UthSt 26
3rd & 9 at USU 26
USU has 5 blockers (6 if QB runs)
BYU has 5 in the box. This play illustrates perfectly why ARod will run it on third and long. In hindsight, they should have just ran it and punted.
(8:35 - 1st) Cooper Legas pass intercepted for a TD Max Tooley return for 34 yds for a TD, (Jake Oldroyd KICK)
This was a great defensive drive for the Cougars. Force teams into passing is what this defense is built on.
