The Horns fell at home to BYU 41
AUSTIN, Texas -- BYU quarterback Taysom Hill ran for three touchdowns in the third quarter, hurdling a defender near the goal line on a 30-yard score, leading the Cougars to a 41-7 win over Texas on Saturday night.
BYU rolled up 550 yards rushing in a win over Texas in 2013. This time, the Cougars stuffed a Longhorns offense that started new quarterback Tyrone Swoopes behind a line missing three starters because of injury or suspensions.
The Cougars (2-0) allowed Texas (1-1) just 249 total yards.
Hill's long touchdown came on a scramble after he was almost sacked. Once free, Hill leaped over diving Texas safety Dylan Haines to get to the end zone. He also had scoring runs of 2 and 1 yard to push the score to 34-0.
Hill passed for 181 yards.
Swoopes started in place of injured David Ash and was 19-of-30 passing for 171 yards and one interception.
