Oregon transfer wide receiver Kyler Kasper made an immediate impact in his BYU debut Saturday, catching two touchdown passes in the Cougars' 28-17 win over Arizona, Deseret News reports.
Kasper, who transferred from Oregon in the offseason, became one of quarterback Bear Bachmeier's favorite targets in the victory. The two touchdowns came during BYU's second-half rally after the Cougars trailed 17-14 at halftime.
The win improved No. 15 BYU to 2-0 on the season. Kasper's performance suggests the Oregon transfer could be a key weapon in BYU's offensive attack going forward.
