Overview
- Kickoff is Saturday at 6 p.m. MDT at Arizona Stadium with television coverage on ESPN.
- True freshman Bear Bachmeier leads BYU’s improving offense into a matchup with an Arizona secondary that has not allowed a passing touchdown through five games.
- BYU lists linebacker Jack Kelly as doubtful and safety Tommy Prassas as questionable, with several other linebackers probable after last week’s injuries.
- Arizona quarterback Noah Fifita has thrown for 1,341 yards and 13 touchdowns, including five scores and 376 yards in a rout of Oklahoma State.
- Heavy rainfall is projected in Tucson, raising the stakes for ball security and potentially shifting emphasis toward the run.
