Although it certainly looked like it, everything didn't go perfectly for the BYU Cougars in their surprisingly easy 52-0 win over Wyoming on Saturday afternoon.

BYU running back Harvey Unga suffered a slight ankle sprain in the third quarter, and did not return. He had rushed for 85 yards on 16 carries before he walked off the field on his own power with 10 minutes and 52 seconds remaining in the third quarter.

"I just tweaked my ankle a little bit, nothing too serious," Unga said. "Coach [ Robert ] Anae kind of threw in the towel for me. I was ready to go back in, and then I got a phone call [from the pressbox] and he was like, 'Just hang out on the side for a little bit.' "

Coach Bronco Mendenhall said Unga was cleared to return and should be fine for Saturday's game at New Mexico.

After the game, defensive end Jan Jorgensen had an ice pack on his left knee. He said he banged his knee on the ground after a tackle, but thinks it will be OK.

 

Jacobson jumps back

Sophomore receiver McKay Jacobson , playing for the first time since pulling a hamstring before the Utah State game, caught three passes for 100 yards, all in the first half.

Jacobson got most of that yardage on a 79-yard pass from Max Hall to give the Cougars a 24-0 lead. He was averaging 25 yards a reception, so that

number will rise.

 

DiLuigi's dance

After his 44-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter, running back J.J. DiLuigi was flagged for excessive celebration. DiLuigi, who finished with five catches for 94 yards and two TDs, said it was a dance he saw on You Tube called "the Jerk."

DiLuigi also rushed for 30 yards.
