No. 17 Baylor football snuck past Iowa State University 31-24 Saturday afternoon at Jack Trice Stadium in Ames, Iowa. The Bears avenged its previous road loss that came two weeks ago and has opened Big 12 play with a win.

“We struggled a little but at BYU, with the noise and things like that,” sophomore quarterback Blake Shapen said. “People look at that and don’t give it too much credit at times, but it’s always a big win when you go on the road in conference.”

The Bears have not won in Ames since a 45-42 victory on Oct.
