PROVO, Utah (AP) — Cody Hoffman returned a kickoff 93 yards for a touchdown and BYU forced three turnovers in a 24-17 victory over Central Florida on Friday night.
Bryan Kariya’s 6-yard TD run with 10:29 left gave BYU a 24-17 lead, and the Cougars stymied a last-minute drive by the Knights.
The victory was a much-needed boost for the Cougars (2-2), who were coming off a 44-point loss at home to rival Utah.
Central Florida (2-2) now has dropped two straight after outscoring its first two opponents 92-3.
