Like a kid swinging at a piñata, Baylor football was one accurate blow away from busting its seven-game home losing streak to FBS opponents on Saturday.

Houston topped the Bears 25-24 in an overtime thriller that saw Baylor have to rally back from a scoreless first half. The Cougars tied the game at 24 points apiece before converting on a game-winning two-point conversion.

FINAL: Houston 25, Baylor 24

Cougars win in OT on a 2-point conversion rush by Donovan Smith. Bears’ losing streak to FBS foes increases to eight games.
