STARKVILLE, Miss. — When BYU cornerback Dayan Ghanwoloku intercepted a pass from Mississippi State quarterback Nick Fitzgerald in the end zone in the second quarter, and was staring at an open field in front of him, it appeared that might be the Cougars’ best chance all day for scoring a touchdown.
Ghanwoloku returned the ball 67 yards to the MSU 33-yard line after getting tackled by Fitzgerald, setting up the BYU offense.
“I was a little tired on that. I saw the open field and I thought, ‘I’m going to take it to the house,’” Ghanwoloku said.
