The BYU Cougars regained their groove on Saturday afternoon.

Quarterback Max Hall played almost flawlessly, completing 20 of 22 passes for 312 yards and four touchdowns, and the Cougar defense matched his effort. The result was a 52-0 win over a Wyoming team that was supposed to be able to give the No. 25 Cougars more trouble.

Hall was pulled in favor of Riley Nelson with five minutes remaining in the third quarter and the Cougars leading 45-0.

The Cougars (7-2) held Wyoming to zero yards in the first quarter and just nine first downs through three quarters.

Running back Harvey Unga rushed 16 times for 85 yards before leaving in the third quarter.
