Uh, about that roughing the kicker call… I dunno. Actually, I do know. Awful call. Big 12 about to issue another apology

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

BYU's Cade Uluave: "There's some key tackles that i missed ... That was an unacceptable performance by me."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Kyler Kasper: "It was a bloodbath and they ended up getting the win at the end."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Kalani said that OL Trevin Ostler went down and didn't return, but starting right guard Kyle Sfarcioc should be back next week.

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Kalani: "These mistakes shouldn't be happening midseason; That's on me."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

BYU's Kalani Sitake: "I don't mind them rushing the field; They allowed us to get off the field (first)."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Kalani: "UCF put us in the position to make mistakes. .. they earned it."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Kalani: "This will be humbling for us, and we have to learn from it; That is all of us."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Kalani: "They were more fundamentally sound, didn't make a lot of mistakes."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

BYU's Kalani Sitake: "They deserved the win."

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Big-time stop on that third-and-1, though. Anisi Purcell with the TFL.

@drewjay Defensive line is just getting demolished

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Can Kelly Poppinga's defense rise up and get a stop here? Or has UCF figured it out

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Clutch 47-yard field goal by Matthias Dunn knots the score at 24-24 in Orlando; Rain has subsided, but that's still a big-time kick for the rookie kicker on the road.

End third: UCF 24, BYU 21
Cougars face a 2nd-and-7 at their 38 when 4th quarter begins.

BYU's tackling has left a lot to be desired today.

[Jay Drew @drewjay]

Sione Moa with the 1-yard TD run caps a 9-play, 75-yard drive for BYU. Took 5:15 off the clock. BYU regains the lead, 21-17.
