BYU'S 1996 COTTON BOWL TEAM




BYU capped a rally from a 10-point deficit with Kealaluhi’s 28-yard
 grab from Steve Sarkisian to secure a 19–15 victory over the 14th
 ranked Kansas State Wildcats.

The Cougars went 14–1 that season, finishing No. 5 in the AP Poll and
 playing in a New Year’s Day bowl game for the first time in school history.  
BYU became the first college football team to win 14 games in a season.
 Only a 29–17 defeat to Washingtonkept the Cougars from potentially
 challenging for a No.1 ranking.
