DJ Lagway struggles in Baylor debut during narrow loss against Auburn
Summary

Baylor quarterback DJ Lagway finished his first game with the team following a 0-1 loss to Auburn. Lagway experienced a difficult start, recording a fumble and an interception during the opening two offensive drives. He struggled with accuracy throughout the contest, completing 50 percent of his 54 pass attempts while playing through an early-game ankle injury. The game concluded after a failed two-point conversion attempt when Lagway threw a pass behind tight end Matthew Klopfenstein. Despite his early mistakes, Lagway directed a late scoring drive that included a 27-yard completion to Jadon Porter. Baylor now prepares for a home game against Prairie View A&M scheduled for September 12 at 8 p.m. ET. His status for that matchup remains uncertain.
