BYU dominated from the start, racing to a 14-0 lead behind Parker Kingston's versatile performance that included both a rushing touchdown and a 54-yard reception from Bear Bachmeier. The Cougars maintained control throughout, building a 28-10 halftime advantage with Bachmeier and LJ Martin adding rushing scores. Despite West Virginia's efforts to rally with touchdowns from Diore Hubbard, Khalil Wilkins, and a late Cam Vaughn reception, BYU's balanced attack proved too much in the convincing 38-24 home victory.
