Play-by-play Offensive Recap of the 2nd Half. Kalani is right
Second half started with us up 31-14--That's a 3 possession game.

Baylor scores a TD and cuts it to 31-21 on a drive in which they converted 2 4th downs and a 3rd and long. One of the 4th downs was a WILD and incredible catch.

BYU gets the ball up by 10 with 8:44 left in the 3rd Q

Possession 1
- 1st and 10 - PASS - Lassiter ran a skinny post. Jake hit him in the hands 23 yards downfield and he just dropped it.
- 2nd and 10 - RUN RPO - Jake handed off but had the option to keep. Stopped for 2 yard loss.
- 3rd and 11 - PASS - Baylor showed blitz and the play changed - Low snap - Jake threw a bit behind to Lassiter up the right seam. Could have been caught, but really a bad throw.

Drive recap - 2 passing plays, 1 RPO that Jake chose to hand off on

FAKE PUNT - AWESOME

Possession 1 - continued
- 1st and 10 - RUN - Handoff left for 3 yards
- 2nd and 10 - PASS - Jake throw on slant (CB had outside leverage). Complete to Lassiter for a first down.

- 1st and 10 - PASS - Jake throws to Chase on a slant. Complete for a 4 yard gain
- 2nd and 5 - PASS - Quick WR screen to Darius on the left who drops it. To be fair, Jake looked like he was trying to decapitate him with the throw. Incomplete.
- 3rd and 5 - PASS - Pass on a little hitch to Darius. I think he got held. Bobbled the ball but then caught it. First down.

- 1st and 10 - RUN - Handoff to Haunga going right. They had a blitz and got him in the backfield. Loss of 2.
- 2nd and 12 - PASS - Swing pass to Miles Davis. Bounced it at his feet. Incomplete.
- 3rd and 12 - RUN - Planned QB Draw.

Field Goal - Good
Recap - 7 Passes, 3 runs (one was a Jake decision RPO)

Possession 2
- 1st and 10 - PASS - Rush got through quickly and Jake threw it away. Incomplete.
- 2nd and 10 - RUN - Nawahine over Left Tackle. Got 3. I thought he was going to get 8. CB came up and made a really good play
- 3rd and 8 - PASS - BAD throw by Jake. Interception.

Recap - 2 Passes, 1 run

Possession 3

- 1st and 10 - PASS - Screen pass. Beautiful call. 15 yards. 1st Down.

- 1st and 10 - RUN - Up the middle. Gain of 4 yards.
- 2nd and 7 - DOUBLE PASS - I think our TE was interfered with. He was open. Throw was too far outside. Incomplete. I LOVE This call. ARod was going for the kill shot. Would have put us up 41-21.
- 3rd and 7 - RUN - Draw up the middle. Gain of 2. He's clearly playing for the field goal here to go up 37-21.

Missed FG

Baylor came right down and scored a TD. 6 point game.

Possession 4
- 1st and 10 - PASS - Down the left sideline to Lassiter. Sort of drop but REALLY tough catch. Incomplete.
- 2nd and 10 - RUN - Back stopped for loss of 2. This was the one play in the second half I didn't like. Their D clearly thought we were going to run...and we ran.
- 3rd and 12 - PASS - Drag over the middle to Kingston. Too high. Off his hands. Incomplete.

PUNT

Possession 5 - 5:41 left
- 1st and 10 - RUN - QB keeps. Gain of 5.
- 2nd and 5 - RUN - Pitch to the left. Gain of 3.
- 3rd and 2 - PASS - Ball tipped on a sprint out to the right. Interception

INTERCEPTION

Possession 6 - 1:50 left
- 1st and 10 - RUN - Right up the middle. Gain of 6. PENALTY - Phantom personal foul on the flop. Absolutely killed that drive.
- 2nd and 20 - RUN - 1 yard gain - Had to keep it on the ground so Baylor is forced to use the timeout IMHO.
- 3rd and 19 - RUN - 8 yard gain - Again, make them use the timeout.

PUNT

- Recap
Summary: I'm with Kalani. I see a lot of aggressiveness. But basically nothing good happened on any pass play beyond some slants early in the 3rd Q. The phantom BS Unsportsmanlike penalty killed us on that last drive. The no-call on the double pass killed us.

14 Passes, 1 RPO run, 11 called runs (3 were called on the last drive when you HAVE to run to ensure the clock keeps running)

In a half when Jake threw 2 picks, there were at least 3 drops (maybe 4 if you want to count Lassiter's on the sideline), I'm not sure what else we were supposed to do. ARod had to run it on the last drive to make sure Baylor used the timeouts. An incomplete pass would have been crippling there given their Timeout situation.
