After seven consecutive losses, the BYU football team got back in the win column on Saturday as the Cougars dominated San Jose Sate, 41-20 at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
Junior quarterback Tanner Mangum passed for a game-high 283 yards and three touchdowns and sophomore wide receiver Micah Simon hauled in three catches for 67 yards and two touchdowns for the Cougars.
With its first win in more than two months, Cougar fans rejoiced and also cracked plenty of jokes on Twitter as the BYU offense finally came alive by putting up a season-high in points and total yards.
Here are some of the best reactions from Cougar Nation.
At the game today. If we win should I rush the field? #byufootball

BYU's TD Flag runners are out of shape. They haven't had to run this much since last year. #byufootball
