This week on Y’s Guys, Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler break down BYU’s 24–21 comeback win at Colorado, where true freshman quarterback Bear Bachmeier made Big 12 history as the first Cougar to tally 10 touchdowns with zero turnovers through his first four games. Despite falling behind 14–0, the Cougars rallied behind Bachmeier’s dual-threat performance (179 passing yards, 2 TDs, 98 rushing yards) and a suffocating defense that allowed no major breakdowns. Though kicker Will Ferrin’s record streak ended with a 55-yard miss, the special teams remained solid and BYU proved once again it can respond to adversity.

The focus now shifts to Friday Night Lights at LaVell Edwards Stadium, where BYU hosts West Virginia in their first-ever Provo matchup. With BYU favored by nearly three touchdowns, Kalani Sitake and his players emphasize discipline and focus against a struggling Mountaineers squad. Blaine offers his three keys to the game, while fan favorite Doug Paisley—father of country music star Brad Paisley—joins to share the West Virginia perspective and his memories of past BYU matchups.

On the Olympic sports side, Ellie Walbruch, the star forward of BYU women’s soccer, sits down with the crew. Walbruch reflects on winning a national championship at UCLA, reaching the College Cup again with BYU, overcoming a torn ACL, and her leadership role in 2025. Later, John Wardenburg, Chief of Staff for BYU women’s basketball, previews the season under new head coach Lee Cummard, highlighting Delaney Gibb’s development, roster depth, and Big 12 challenges ahead.

The Re-Lyte Athlete of the Week spotlights linebacker Isaiah Glasker, who delivered a dominant performance against Colorado with a sack, a highlight-reel hit, and the game-sealing interception. With Big 12 recaps, Cougar NFL updates, campus sports notes, and a tribute to President Russell M. Nelson, who passed away at age 101, this week’s show offers both celebration and reflection. As always, Y’s Guys remains the most-watched collegiate sports livestream on YouTube, connecting Cougar Nation worldwide.
