Highlights

The Cougars found themselves facing a 4th-and-1 during their opening drive and relied on quarterback Taysom Hill to convert. It looked as if Hill was going to be sacked for a loss of three yards, but the quarterback was able to spin his way out of a tackle and gain three on the play, keeping the drive alive.
