SALT LAKE CITY – Utah Football held on to an early lead to come out with a week two win over the Baylor Bears, 23-12, at Rice-Eccles Stadium on Saturday.

The Utes scored all 23 of their points in the first half. With Cam Rising injuring his throwing hand and watching the second half from the sideline, Utah’s offense struggled.

However, the other side of the ball provided exactly what was needed to come away with the win.
