BYU beat Baylor 28-7 on Saturday night, and Bear Bachmeier did the heavy lifting. A week after throwing four interceptions at Utah, he ran for three first-half touchdowns and threw a 23-yard scoring pass to Jojo Phillips. The Cougars are 8-2, 5-2 in the Big 12, and No. 10 in the CFP rankings.
The defense held up its end. Baylor's only score was a 3-yard DJ Lagway pass to Hawkins Polley with 11:18 left. Baylor flew in Saturday morning because of Friday's FAA ground stop, which moved kickoff from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m..
- Bachmeier: 104 passing yards and 54 rushing yards
- Crowd: 63,008 at LaVell Edwards Stadium
- LJ Martin: 49 yards on six carries before leaving
- Next up: at Kansas on Sat., Nov. 21
Injuries are the worry. LJ Martin left the game, and Kalani Sitake said Martin probably could have returned but was held out as a precaution. Sitake said Martin "just got stepped on and kind of irritated (the old injury)." Running back Sione Moa also left with an apparent knee injury, and Sitake had no immediate update on him.
