PROVO — BYU’s 28-10 win over Utah State Saturday night at LaVell Edwards Stadium in the regular-season finale capped an emotional week for the Cougars.

BYU (8-4) paid tribute to its 21 graduating seniors, including running back Jamaal Williams and quarterback Taysom Hill. Hill left the game with a hyperextended elbow in the fourth quarter.

The Cougars were also playing for running backs coach Reno Mahe and his family. Mahe’s 3-year-old daughter, Elsie, has been hospitalized since she became entangled in a mini-blind cord Tuesday at the Mahe home in Lehi.
