There was something to be gained by getting a first down, by run or pass against Stanford, in order to run out the clock. Stanford had the time, the time outs and the ability to win the game after getting the ball back.
There was nothing to be gained by running the ball against UCLA. UCLA only had one timeout and likely wouldn't have even used it if BYU had just taken a knee. BYU was up 11 and had all the momentum on their side.
The UCLA call was clearly the stupider of the two and anyone who disagrees with it is either as BYU71 described them.

Agreed.
The handoff made no sense whatsoever. There were 19 seconds left in the half. He either gets a short gain or he fumbles.
