BYU Recap, Oct. 22, 2023

Well, BYU came out and played like they should be playing. Or play like they did last week? That is the question on my mind. It should be the question on everyone’s mind

1st Quarter

BYU got the ball, and they went down and scored. LJ Martian ran a 55-yard run, his longest of the year. BYU went up 7

Tech	0
BYU	7

BYU stopped Texas Tech on 4 and 1 close to the goal line. Texas had the ball, then a fumble in the end zone, and then BYU went up 14.

Tech	0
BYU	14

2nd Quarter

Texas Tech had to punt it, and BYU had to kick it out. There was a great hit and some trash-talking on the BYU sideline with the Texas Tech returner.

Texas Tech scored on a 72-yard pass play.

Tech	7
BYU	14

BYU drove down the field and made some great plays and touchdowns for BYU.

Tech	7
BYU	21

BYU intercepted the ball but could only convert 3 points on that turnover.

Tech	1
BYU	24

Did Texas Tech do anything with the time left in the 2nd quarter? Had some excellent throws. They called targeting on BYU, but it wasn’t, and the refs agreed. However,  it was intercepted to end the 2nd quarter.

BYU came out ready to play some football. However, there is still the 2nd half of the game. Will Texas Tech come back?

2nd Half

I will be the first to admit that I did watch the 2nd half of the play, but I wasn’t able to document it very well.

BYU played a good game, and they came out with the victory.

Tech	14
BYU	27

Here are the stats for the game,

Texas Tech	Stat	BYU
19	First Down	12
236	Passing	127
153	Rushing	150
389	Total Yards	277
9/80	Penalties	4/24
5	Turn overs	0
2	Fumbles	0
3	Interceptions thrown	0
30:55	Time of Possession	29:05

It was a good game, where BYU still had not-so-good stats but pulled off the win. Something must be going right for them this year.

Texas is next week, and that should be a good game. That will be played at 2:30 PM MST on ABC.
