Game Notes
No notes for this game.
In WAC finale, BYU lost five fumbles, but still managed to win before crowd of 7,350 in Sun Bowl...defense played well again...Cougar offense did not have a good night...Jeff Blanc was injured, Gifford Nielsen started slowly, but wound up with 7 of 12...cold temperatures for the night game may have accounted for lack of offensive punch.
