PROVO — BYU wide receiver Nick Kurtz picked a perfect night, and a perfect time, to score his first two career touchdowns.
In Friday night's 38-24 victory over Cincinnati at LaVell Edwards Stadium, Kurtz hauled in a 19-yard TD pass from quarterback Tanner Mangum in the third quarter to tie the score at 17 apiece, and his second TD was a 53-yarder in the fourth quarter that gave the Cougars (5-2) their first lead of the game, 31-24.
The San Diego native finished with six catches for 119 yards — and he did it in front of his mom, dad, brother and uncle.
