The Deseret News is providing live coverage of Saturday’s game between BYU and Kansas State. Check back for updates throughout the game.
BYU 17, Kansas State 6
Talk about a wild way to end the half.
Trailing 6-3 with under two minutes to play, BYU’s defense managed a scoop-and-score to take the lead, an interception to get the ball back in Kansas State territory and, finally, a 23-yard touchdown to Chase Roberts to make it a two-possession ballgame.
To say the LaVell Edwards Stadium whiteout crowd is hysterical would be an understatement. Late night kickoffs in Provo tend to get crazy, but never anything of this sort.
The Wildcats have already racked up 124 rushing yards, yet have no end zone trips and two turnovers to show for it.
Jake Retzlaff ended the half 11 of 16 in passing for 125 yards and a touchdown to go with a 155.0 rating. While the Cougars have just 10 yards on the ground thus far, Retzlaff has connected with seven different receivers already, including Roberts twice for a team-high 47 yards.
Kansas State will receive the second half kickoff as BYU’s defense looks to continue its recent success.
