Bear Bachmeier is making history as BYU's first true freshman to start a season opener at quarterback. Bachmeier was named QB1 on Tuesday, securing his spot after a competitive fall camp. Formerly committed to Stanford, Bachmeier transferred to BYU in May, joining forces with his brother, wide receiver Tiger Bachmeier. Deseret News sports reporter Jay Drew explains the significance of the choice and the potential risk the team may be taking in choosing such a young starting quarterback.
