In a game where Baylor needed a near flawless performance to pull off the upset, missed tackles, dropped catches, an impotent running attack, and complacent playcalling all but guaranteed a 1-3 start to the season.
The first quarter began with a reliably...uninspiring drive by Baylor. Back-to-back sacks leading to a three-and-out gave good field position to Texas. Fortunately the defense came to play, and after giving up a long third down conversion, they forced a punt from the Baylor 42.
The second offensive drive was a little better than the first, but a third sack killed any chance of a sustained possession.
