BYU Has More Offensive Firepower in Shootout Win Over Virginia

This game wasn’t for the defensive fans.

BYU’s offense won the track meet as Jaren Hall aired it out and Tyler Allgeier battered Virginia defenders in a 66-49 win Saturday night in Provo.

BYU jumped out to an early 21-0 lead, but UVA scored a touchdown on six straight possessions to go into halftime with a 42-38 lead.

BYU rode Tyler Allgeier in the second half to limit possessions, and BYU’s defense held Virginia to just 7 second half points to slow down the Hoos. Turnovers also helped BYU, as they won the turnover battle 3-0.
