UTSA earns first Power 5 win in Waco, stifles Baylor 17-10

UTSA middle linebacker Josiah Tauaefa hovered over Baylor quarterback Anu Solomon for about a second and a half on the game-deciding fourth down in Waco. Solomon, who couldn’t seem to find an open receiver all night, scrambled around a collapsing front to buy some time, presenting Tauaefa with an opening to bomb-rush the quarterback and secure the Roadrunners’ first-ever Power 5 victory.

It was the exclamation point to a defensive performance that outright dominated Baylor all game. With a mere 274 yards of total production, Baylor’s ability to move the football was futile.
