From blowing a two-score lead against Colorado to a failed comeback against No. 22 BYU, Baylor football has been only a few plays away from sitting atop the Big 12. But after failing to find one more first down in Boulder and falling into a 21-0 deficit against the Cougars, the green and gold are still hanging on to the idea of proving themselves.

After allowing 17 points and 151 total yards in the first quarter, the Bears (1-1) held the Utes (2-0) without another offensive touchdown and just 141 total yards for the rest of the game. Rising, a seventh-year college quarterback, was taken out of the game with 1:47 left in the second quarter after colliding with Gatorade coolers on the sidelines. Without Rising in the game, Utah only recorded 99 yards of offense.
