Bachmeier runs for 7-yard TD in second OT, No. 18 BYU beats Arizona 33-27 to stay undefeated

TUCSON, Ariz. -- , Freshman quarterback Bear Bachmeier ran for a 7-yard touchdown in the second overtime, BYU's defense stopped Arizona on the ensuing drive and the 18th-ranked Cougars stayed undefeated with a 33-27 win over the Wildcats on Saturday night. Bachmeier's run up the middle gave BYU a 33-27 lead, but the 2-point conversion attempt was deflected and fell incomplete. Arizona had a chance to tie the game, but Noah Fifita 's fourth-down pass bounced off the hands of Javin Whatley , who was trying to make a tough catch in the end zone. “There's no better feeling than winning, especially winning in double overtime on the road against a really good team,” BYU receiver Parker Kingston said. “It was awesome.” BYU (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) has won its first six games for a second straight season and seventh time in program history. Arizona (4-2, 1-2) has dropped two of its past three games.
