BYU Cougars sophomore quarterback Jake Heaps hit Ross Apo for a six-yard touchdown to extend his team's lead over the No. 24 Texas Longhorns to 13-0 early in the second quarter.
BYU Vs Texas Score: Jake Heaps Gives Cougars 13-0 Lead
After a pair of Justin Sorenson field goals gave BYU a 6-0 lead after the first quarter, Heaps lead an eight-play, 82-yard drive that ended with the Issaquah, Washington native hitting Apo for six points. Heaps has completed 11-of-19 passes for 173 yards and a touchdown on the night, a much better night than Garrett Gilbert, his counterpart under center for the Longhorns.
Gilbert is just 2-of-8 for eight yards and has been intercepted twice. Sophomore Case McCoy, younger brother of former Longhorns and current Cleveland Browns quarterback Colt McCoy, replaced Gilbert in the second quarter.
