Posted December 22, 2009 10:00 pm
LAS VEGAS - Max Hall threw for 192 yards and 3 touchdowns in the only bowl game he knows, leading No. 15 BYU past No. 16 Oregon State 44-20 in the Las Vegas Bowl on Tuesday night.
Hall gave the Cougars (11-2) their third win in five straight bowl appearances in the Sin City and ended the Beavers' run of five consecutive bowl wins. Oregon State (8-5) appeared troubled by cold winds and the lingering sting of missing the Rose Bowl. Hall threw a 25-yard TD pass to Luke Ashworth, a 17-yard scoring strike to Dennis Pitta and a 15-yard TD pass to Manase Tonga. He had 139 yards passing in the first half. Tonga added an 18-yard rushing TD, and Harvey Unga finished with 76 yards rushing and a TD for BYU.
