What a game! The Baylor Bears pulled off an electrifying 34-28 victory over the BYU Cougars in a thriller that went into overtime. Both teams showcased relentless offensive firepower, trading touchdowns throughout regulation, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. The Bears' quarterback commanded the field with pinpoint passing, while BYU's offense matched stride for stride with explosive plays and crafty runs.
As the overtime period kicked off, it was anyone’s game. Baylor’s defense had struggled to contain the Cougars for much of the night but stepped up when it mattered most. On BYU’s opening drive in OT, Baylor's cornerback jumped a route, intercepting the ball and racing 65 yards downfield for a game-winning pick-six, sealing the victory in dramatic fashion.
The win was a testament to Baylor's resilience, determination, and clutch defensive play when the stakes were highest. Fans will remember this battle for its wild momentum swings and a thrilling finish that capped off one of the Bears’ most exciting matchups in recent memory.
BYU comes back from a 14-28 fourth quarter deficit just to lose on a stupid mistake in OT. It started off with a Retzlaff pass to Martin for a touchdown to make the game 21-28. BYU follows this drive with an interception by Taggart. And a quick Retzlaff rushing touchdown to tie up the game 28-28 with 3 minutes left on the clock. On the next drive, BYU holds Baylor to a punt. Baylor does the same to BYU right after. Baylor throws it deep with a couple seconds left to be picked off by BYU and the game is taken into overtime. Baylor wins the toss and elects to play defense first. This was a wise decision from Baylor, as Retzlaff throws a pick six and the third play of overtime, losing the game 28-34.
