Baylor to be without QB Blake Shapen against Utah
Utah's defense had a phenomenal performance in their Week 1 win over Florida, and now they are likely licking their chops.
Similar to a situation Utah experienced in Week 1, Baylor will be without their starting quarterback due to a knee injury. It was reported earlier on Monday that the Bears' quarterback Blake Shapen suffered an MCL injury, forcing him to miss the next couple weeks.
This Baylor team was already at an extremely vulnerable spot when you consider they lost their Week 1 game against Texas State, who had actually never beaten a Power 5 team, and now find themselves without their quarterback.

Without Shapen, the Bears will turn to Sawyer Robertson who completed 6 of 12 passes for 113 yards but did throw an untimely interception and also fumbled in the loss. Utah is a touchdown favorite, and could see the line move as we get more clarity on Cam Rising.
