WACO, Texas (AP) — Jake Retzlaff had the ball early at Central Texas, but penalties and two second-half interceptions from the gunslinger quarterback nearly cost BYU its perfect start to the season.

Two interceptions by his defense kept the streak alive.

Retzlaff completed 17 of 31 passes for 216 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 53 yards and a score, and Crew Wakley made an interception in the final minute as the 22nd-ranked Cougars held on for a 34-28 victory over the Bears before an announced crowd of 39,583 fans Saturday afternoon at McLane Stadium.

Darius Lassiter caught eight passes for 120 yards and a touchdown for BYU (5-0, 2-0 Big 12), his first 100-yard receiving game since transferring from Eastern Michigan and the third of his career in the Cougars’ first-ever Big 12. Away win.

Sawyer Robertson threw for 324 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions and ran for 29 yards and a score to lead Baylor (2-3, 0-2 Big 12).

Josh Cameron caught seven passes for 125 yards and two touchdowns for the Bears, including a rushing 23-yard touchdown that pulled Baylor within 6 points in the fourth quarter.

Enoch Nawahine, who also ran for 51 yards on 19 carries, received an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty with less than two minutes left, giving the Bears a chance to win with 1:24 left.

But Wakley, who also tied for the team lead with four tackles, secured the win with Robertson’s second interception of the game for a Baylor team that outscored BYU by 387-367 total yards.
