PROVO, Utah – An eye for an eye, or a football for a football in this case, as the Cougar defense made up for a Hickley Ropati trick-play turnover. Tanner Wall’s second career interception and return set BYU up at the goal line.
Sophomore running back LJ Martin took the first-down handoff and plowed through the defense for his third touchdown since missing five weeks with an injury. Martin scored twice in last week’s 41-19 win.

Ropati tossed an INT off a trick play to end the first quarter, giving the Cowboys some momentum. On second down, redshirt sophomore QB Garret Rangel overshot his wide receiver, instead finding Wall in the middle of the field.
Wall used a wall of blockers to advance the ball into the red zone, finally being taken down at the one-yard line and setting the stage for Martin’s heroics.
The Cougars lead Oklahoma State 14-7 midway through the first half.
