BYU Faces Baylor in Key Conference Clash

The 22nd-ranked Brigham Young University (BYU) Cougars are set to face the Baylor Bears in a crucial college football game on Saturday, September 28. The game kicks off at 9 a.m. PT/12 p.m. ET at McLane Stadium in Waco, Texas, as both teams look to make significant strides in their conference standings.

BYU, now boasting a 4-0 record, has recently entered the Associated Press Top 25 Poll, following a commendable victory over Kansas State, a team that was ranked 13th at the time and has since moved to the 23rd spot. This impressive performance has propelled the Cougars up the rankings, making this upcoming game against Baylor an important test for the team.

The Baylor Bears are currently holding a 2-2 record this season. Their previous game resulted in a narrow and emotionally challenging overtime loss to Colorado, with the final score standing at 38-31. Before that, Baylor secured a win against Air Force but suffered a defeat against Utah in what was not considered an official conference game.

This match marks the fifth encounter between BYU and Baylor, yet it holds greater significance as their first meeting as conference opponents. The series is currently tied at 2-2, with the Cougars overcoming the Bears in their last meeting in 2022.
