Punt Returner Bryson Smith Does the Unfathomable

Bryson Smith has been one of the more consistent punt returners in college football since arriving at Houston in 2018, but the Cougars’ junior receiver did the unfathomable on Friday:

Refs were generous and awarded Houston the ball at the two-yard-line, which of course led to a 98-yard touchdown drive to extend their lead to 12 points. Houston didn’t score again, though, as BYU turned a 12-point third-quarter deficit into a 17-point win to remain undefeated and drop Dana Holgorsen to 5-9 as head coach of a program that went 112-58 in the 13 years before his arrival.
