BYU's 17-10 victory over TCU came at a cost as the Cougars lost two star players to injuries during the game. Running back LJ Martin, who had been a key offensive weapon, left the contest and did not return. A second starter also sustained an injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the matchup.

The injuries represent a significant blow to BYU's depth chart as the No. 10 Cougars continue their season. Quarterback Bear Bachmeier filled the offensive void with two rushing touchdowns, including a clinching 21-yard score, but the team will need to assess the severity of both injuries ahead of upcoming conference play.
