Parker Kingston’s 1-yard touchdown run gave BYU (5-0, 2-0) the 7-0 advantage, and Kingston hauled in a 54-yard touchdown pass less than 6 minutes later to double the Cougars’ lead. Chase Wilson’s interception of a Bachmeier red zone pass prevented the WVU (2-4, 0-3) deficit from growing on the ensuing series. However, BYU found the end zone shortly after on LJ Martin’s 4-yard run that followed Bachmeier’s 85-yard pass to wideout Chase Roberts. The Cougars countered with a pivotal drive, reaching the end zone on Bachmeier’s 2-yard run 22 seconds before halftime. It marked the redshirt freshman’s first career touchdown run.
