PROVO, Utah, Oct. 3 (UPI) -- Max Hall threw for three touchdowns Friday, Harvey Unga ran for 118 yards and No. 21 Brigham Young defeated Utah State 35-17.

Hall completed 16-of-23 passes for 218 yards and was intercepted twice.

After the Aggies took an early 7-0 lead, Hall tied the game with a 6-yard throw to Dennis Pitta at the end of a 19-play, 78-yard drive. Hall's 48-yard scoring pass to Luke Ashworth in the first minute of the second quarter gave BYU the lead for good.

The Cougars built a 21-7 halftime advantage and pulled away in the fourth quarter on an 8-yard touchdown run by Unga and a 13-yard scoring throw from Hall to Pitta.

Despite the win, BYU turned the ball over three times overall and was flagged for 110 yards worth of penalties.

The Cougars improved to 4-1 with the non-conference win. Utah State fell to 1-3.
