PROVO, Utah – BYU true freshman quarterback Bear Bachmeier wears number 47 to remind himself of his younger days as a running back. Now a full-time QB for the Cougars, Bachmeier still carries that ball-carrier attitude when he leaves the pocket.

It’s done him well after the Murrietta, California native passed Taysom Hill (2012) for the most rushing touchdowns by a freshman QB with a two-yard run against West Virginia.

No. 23 BYU is hosting West Virginia at LaVell Edwards Stadium on Friday, October 3. The Cougars went into halftime with a 28-10 lead after a dominating first half.
