In the first game of the 2002 season, the Cougars defeated Syracuse 42-21. By the end of the game, the BYU offense racked up 615 yards of total offense. Quarterback Bret Engemann threw for 386 yards on 35-of-54 passing, with three touchdowns and one interception. He even proved he could run the ball by posting 50 yards on the ground on eight carries, and scoring a three-yard rushing touchdown to put the Cougars up 27-21.
Sophomore running back Marcus Whalen carried the ball 19 times for a total of 152 yards rushing and one touchdown. BYU recorded 397 total receiving yards with 10 different receivers.
On the first possession of the game, Engemann drove the Cougar offense 69 yards in 10 plays to score the first touchdown of the game, a six-yard pass to senior wide receiver Andrew Ord. BYU held Syracuse on their next possession, but Mahe fumbled the punt and seven seconds later Syracuse tied the game at 7-7.
The Cougars scored two more touchdowns to go up 21-14 at halftime, including a 99-yard drive in nine plays for a touchdown off of a one-yard run by Whalen, tying the longest touchdown scoring drive in school history. The Cougars never looked back as they rolled to the convincing 42-21 win.
