  "account": "Provo, Utah (AP) — Bear Bachmeier threw for 217 yards and three touchdowns, contributing a rushing touchdown, as No. 15 BYU secured a 28-17 victory over Arizona on Saturday. LJ Martin led the Cougars' ground game with 98 yards on 20 carries. The Cougars' conference win marked their first of the season, bringing their record to 2-0, 1-0 in Big 12 play. Noah Fifita led the Wildcats with 230 yards and a touchdown through the air, adding another score on the ground. Arizona (1-1, 0-1) fell behind 17-14 at halftime after scoring on three of its first six drives. BYU took a 28-17 lead with 6:10 remaining after Bachmeier connected with Kyler Kasper on two short touchdown passes. Despite Arizona’s resurgence, they were shut out after the half, and Bachmeier sealed the win with a 6-yard run after an interception return by Cade Uluave.",
