BYU in review: Cougars’ loss to Hawaii was a microcosm of their season

Honolulu • When it comes to the 2019 Hawaii Bowl, what people may continue to talk about will be the almost-touchdown-turned-fumble by Zach Wilson and the questionable field goal by Jake Oldroyd that would have handed BYU a win over the Rainbow Warriors.

“I guess they didn’t have enough evidence to say it was a touchdown,” BYU coach Kalani Sitake said of Wilson’s fumble. “I can’t say that I could see it from where I stood. I just assumed they had the right angles and had the right film.”

But if anything, those would-be moments and almost-there feats was a fitting way to end a season that had its struggles.
