but they did have a lot of short fields which helped a lot.

So both teams had only one 3-and-out. BYU did have more punts, but that's probably because KSU was going for it on 4th down most of the 2nd half.

KSU had 3 sustained drives that resulted in FGs. BYU had 2 sustained drives with only 1 that resulted in a FG. The rest of our drives were short field drives that resulted in TDs, or longer drives that sputtered. We did have a 4 play drive late in the 4th quarter, but the game was already over and we were playing conservative.

But that 4 drive sequence for KSU starting late in the 2nd was absolutely brutal. I don't think I remember a game that completely changed so much so quickly.
