Sometimes cliches are true

It’s why they play 60 minutes is a cliche, but applies it here. BYU played a stellar half and a decent third quarter. But Utah asserted their will starting toward the end of the third quarter. They wore us out plain and simple, particularly their run game. Whether that was because of injury, depth, conditioning or a combination, they simply wore out our defense. And their defense played a second half like their season statistics would have predicted. The game was a microcosm of the year— flashes of excitement mingled with blah.

Our injuries and their superior depth certainly didn't help but leading by 20 points with like 6 minutes left in the 3rd quarter was enough of a cushion to win if our stinking coaches weren't incompetent.
