Baylor Scores 28 Straight and Beats Iowa State 42-31
Iowa State led 17-7 in the second quarter. By the middle of the third it trailed 35-17, because Baylor scored 28 points in a row. The Bears went on to win 42-31, and that stretch is the game.
Iowa State had the fast start: a 40-yard Aiden Flora run, a 57-yard Kyle Konrardy field goal and a 50-yard Jaylen Raynor pass to Cameron Pettaway that made it 17-7. Then DJ Lagway ran 54 yards for a touchdown at 4:25 of the second. Koltin Sieracki recovered a fumble in the end zone with 23 seconds left in the half for a 21-17 lead, the only lead change of the game. Lagway followed with a 62-yard pass to Taz Williams Jr. in the third, and Ryelan Morris ran 33 yards to make it 35-17. Iowa State lost exactly one fumble all day, and it went for a touchdown.
Iowa State kept coming. Raynor threw a 9-yard touchdown to Vince Benetti in the fourth (the two-point try failed), Morris ran in from 11 yards at 4:11 for 42-23, and Raynor ran in a 3-yarder at 1:45 with a two-point conversion that Flora threw to him, which made the final score closer than the game was. Iowa State outgained Baylor 472 yards to 427, threw no interceptions, and still lost by 11.
Baylor is 6-3. Iowa State is 4-5. For fantasy, Lagway had a huge afternoon, 39.1 points on 229 passing yards, 119 rushing yards and three touchdowns, and Raynor had 31.5 in defeat.
