Roberts had the potential to be the difference in one of the biggest games of the Independence era at BYU, and he was just that.
Brigham Young wide receiver Chase Roberts catches a pass in the end zone for the Cougars, as Baylor Bears cornerback Lorando Johnson defends, in football action between the Brigham Young Cougars and the Baylor Bears at Lavell Edwards Stadium in Provo, on Saturday, Sept. 10, 2022.All week, Chase Roberts was kept in the dark about the biggest question on his mind.
. Roberts had 122 yards receiving on eight catches and 15 targets. He had one receiving touchdown and added a 22-yard touchdown pass to Jaren Hall on a trick play. That play gave BYU a 20-13 lead and jolted the momentum back in the third quarter. “We love Puka and Gunner, but we talked about our depth quite often,” Sitake said. “I thought Chase Roberts did a great job. I thought Kody Epps did a great job, Brayden Cosper did a great job and Keanu Hill. Those guys played really well.”Was this the most complete defensive performance BYU has had in years?With BYU’s offense struggling for large portions of the night — with seven drives under four minutes — the defense largely won the Cougars the game.
There were moments when BYU looked vulnerable, like late in the third quarter when Baylor put together back-to-back 70-yard drives. The defense was on the field for over 30 minutes and saw 80 plays. So, BYU offensive coordinator Aaron Roderick dialed up a double pass. Jaren Hall threw it to Roberts. Then Roberts threw an easy touchdown to Hall for a 22-yard score. From there, it felt the Cougars really established themselves in the second half and for the rest of the night.
