BYU’s Bear Bachmeier calls his own number on rushing touchdown vs. Notre Dame

BYU’s dynamic quarterback Bear Bachmeier made an immediate impact in the Cougars’ Week 7 clash against top-ranked Notre Dame, scoring the game’s opening touchdown on a self-called rushing play. Taking the snap from the Cougars’ five-yard line, Bachmeier powered through the Irish defense for a quick score that energized the home crowd in Provo, putting BYU ahead 7-0 early in the contest.

The play marked a bold start for the Cougars, who entered the game with a key defensive update under head coach Kalani Sitake. Notre Dame answered with a touchdown of their own, but Bachmeier later added a receiving score to extend BYU’s lead to 14-10 in the high-stakes matchup between two elite programs.
