WACO, Texas – BYU’s offense is rolling after Jake Retzlaff and Darius Lassiter connect for a 44-yard scoring bomb to take a 28-7 lead.

The 10-play, 85-yard drive showed the Cougar’s versatility on offense. Five rushing attempts and 4-for-5 passing from Retzlaff, with completions to Chase Roberts and Lassiter, continue to baffle the Bear’s defense.

Retzlaff is 9-of-11 for 153 yards and two passing touchdowns. The redshirt junior also ran for a 17-yard touchdown, the fourth rushing score of his BYU career. Lassiter has accounted for 90 of Retzlaff’s passing yards, making four catches. Five other Cougar receivers have at least one catch.

BYU has outgained the Bears 239 yards to 132 yards through 22 minutes of play. The Cougars are averaging 5.4 yards per rush and 17 yards per completion.
