Baylor started the season with a home loss against Auburn, a game that a lot of people had the Bears winning. Dave Aranda's squad lost start defensive end Jackie Marshall early in the ball game and Baylor struggled to defend the run following. Auburn rushed for 308 yards on the ground -- 137 of that came from QB Jackson Arnold.

Baylor QB Sawyer Robertson threw for 419 yards in the game and three scores, but even Robertson looked 'off' at times. The Bears made a late run in the game, but a ball fell through tight end Michael Trigg's hands and Baylor walked off with a 38-24 loss.
