Pirates sharing the ball
In a game that was deadlocked 38-38 with four minutes to play last Saturday night, there were numerous fine details that could have swung the football game in Provo, Utah, in the direction of visiting East Carolina.
Instead, the finite things went the way of host BYU, which spent those final minutes on a touchdown drive. But for the team on the losing end, there are mostly positive feelings this week.
Mindful that they have grown considerably in the season’s first half, the 3-3 Pirates have a chance to jump into contention for the first-ever American Athletic Conference championship game at season’s end. Now, it’s mostly the little things that still need work.
