Baylor’s Close Call Against Auburn | Auburn Tigers Football News

Baylor’s gritty 17-16 loss to Auburn came down to the wire, with a late touchdown and failed two-point attempt sealing their fate—but there were flashes of promise. DJ Lagway dazzled despite a banged-up ankle, throwing for over 300 yards and two scores, especially connecting with Gavin Freeman for a career-high performance. The defense stepped up with five sacks, an interception, and dominant play in the trenches—clearly a leap from last season. But the offensive line faltered, and costly mistakes—including turnovers and missed field goals—proved fatal. Baylor fell just half a yard short of overtime, but showed undeniable potential and fight in their first loss of the year.
