By the numbers: No. 7 Texas routs BYU in stellar performance by the defense

Here are the numbers in Texas’ vital conference win vs BYU.

The No. 7 Texas Longhorns didn’t allow a touchdown all game against BYU. No matter who you are playing that is a big deal.

Before Saturday’s matchup, BYU was averaging over 26 points per game. The Longhorns held their opponent to two field goals, credited to defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski’s adjustments from last week’s near disaster of a finish vs Houston.

Sure, there are things you can criticize Texas for during the game, but what matters is they won. With disappointing finishes from Longhorns teams in previous years, going into November with a 7-1 record is something we can all be happy with.
