3:30 remaining in 2nd Qtr, Utah leads 14-10
BYU with the ball at midfield on 4th and 1
— Either a poor decision to go for it, or a poor perimeter block by Lassiter gives Utah the ball at midfield, rather than pinning them deep or extending the drive.
— Phantom facemask call on the next play. Utes pick up big yardage and negate the sack that might well have led to three and out. TD score four plays later.
— Poor time management and a penalty to end the half on a runoff. Negates the fact we had moved the ball to the Utah 32, well within Ferrin range.
Rewrite any of the above and it’s a one-score game at the half, and quite possibly only 14-13 for Utah.
