🔥 Bear Bachmeier to score anytime TD (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

BYU’s first-year quarterback has filled the role vacated by Jake Retzlaff excellently. Through four games, Bachmeier has six passing scores, four rushing scores, and zero interceptions. He should find the end zone again on Friday night against this shaky West Virginia defense.

The Mountaineers have suffered back-to-back blowout losses. In the first, they gave up 41 points to the Kansas Jayhawks, whose quarterback ran for 69 yards with no scores. In the second, they gave up 48 points to the Utah Utes, whose quarterback ran for 33 yards and one score.

We can get Bachmeier close enough to even money on the anytime touchdown scorer markets to warrant a wager. Lock him in at -115 (53.5% implied probability) to score an $8.70 profit on a $10 bet and hope that the West Virginia defense continues to let opposing quarterbacks run all over it. 

🔥 Chase Roberts to score anytime TD (+105) ⭐⭐⭐

Over its past two blowout losses, West Virginia’s defense has given up a ton of scoring through the air.

Kansas’ Jalon Daniels threw for three touchdowns, Utah’s Devon Dampier threw for four, and his backup, Byrd Ficklin, threw for another. As a result, we’re targeting the highest-volume receiver in this offense. The 6-foot-4 Roberts leads BYU in receptions (16), receiving yards (234), and receiving touchdowns (3), two of which came against Colorado last week. 

I’m surprised that Roberts’ odds aren’t shorter than the +105 (48.8% implied probability) you’ll find at DraftKings, since most of our best sports betting sites list him at -103 or shorter. Lock the talented, big-bodied wide receiver in to score an anytime touchdown to win a $10.50 profit on a $10 bet.

🔥 Cam Vaughn to score anytime TD (+400) ⭐⭐⭐

If West Virginia’s injury-riddled offense is going to score a touchdown, it will likely come on an explosive passing play.

The Mountaineers haven’t excelled at generating these types of plays, but BYU's defense hasn’t excelled at preventing them, either. Opposing offenses have averaged at least 1.25 expected points added per successful passing play, which is reasonably explosive.

West Virginia's only receiving touchdown in its last two games was pulled in by Cam Vaughn, whose 277 receiving yards and pair of receiving scores lead the team. Since Vaughn scoring on a broken passing play is West Virginia's most likely path to points, back him to find pay dirt at +400 (20% implied probability) at DraftKings to turn a $10 bet into a $40 profit.
