Already 1-3 to start the year, things were looking extremely bleak for Baylor on Saturday on the road against UCF.
It was UCF’s home debut as a member of the Big 12, and the Knights jumped on the Bears early. UCF scored touchdowns on its first three possessions while Baylor sputtered. And by the time halftime rolled around, BU was trailing 28-7.
That deficit grew to 35-7 by the midway point of the third quarter, but then the improbable happened. Baylor somehow managed to storm all the way back to win 36-35 by scoring the game’s final 29 points. The winning score was a 25-yard field goal by Isaiah Hankins with 1:21 to play. And on the ensuing drive, Baylor got the game-winning stop after allowing one of the wildest fourth-down conversions you will ever see.
It was fourth-and-6 for UCF from its own 30-yard line. And on the play, UCF quarterback Timmy McClain scrambled all the way back into his own end zone before somehow finding RJ Harvey for a first-down conversion.
