PROVO, Utah—Blake Mangelson’s first career fumble recovery led to a BYU touchdown, sealing an unexpected ten-win regular season for the BYU Cougars. With the outcome no longer in doubt, tempers boiled over and led to the ejection of two players, including BYU wide receiver Darius Lassiter, for hitting.

No. 19 BYU hosts the Houston Cougars at LaVell Edwards Stadium on Saturday, November 30th.
