Salt Lake City, UT, October 22, 2026 —
BYU receiver Kyler Kasper threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to quarterback Bear Bachmeier during the Cougars’ football game against Notre Dame at LaVell Edwards Stadium. The play was a trick play, and Kasper’s ability to execute it had been confirmed in a brief practice tryout before it was used in the game.
The available account does not provide the date of the game, the quarter or score when the touchdown occurred, or the final result. It also does not specify how the play developed beyond Kasper completing the pass to Bachmeier for a touchdown. No further details about the practice tryout were provided.
The described play reversed the usual roles of the two players for the scoring pass: Kasper, identified as a receiver, threw to Bachmeier, identified as the quarterback. The account confirms the pass traveled 15 yards and resulted in a touchdown, but it does not say whether the play was part of a broader sequence or what impact it had on the game’s outcome.
Beyond the brief practice confirmation, no additional information was provided about the decision to use the play, the coaches involved, or the players’ reactions. The account likewise does not include direct comments from Kasper, Bachmeier, or the team. The confirmed details are limited to the successful 15-yard touchdown pass, the players’ positions, the opponent and venue, and the practice tryout that preceded the play’s use.
