Baylor and Colorado will meet in Waco with both teams at 2-1, while 11 players are unavailable for the game. Baylor's unavailable players are Jacob Redding, Jamarion Richardson, Devonte Tezino, Cayden Tone and Ashton Jones. Jadon Porter, Devin Turner and Hosea Wheeler are available, with Porter's and Turner's statuses previously listed as probable and Wheeler's designation later upgraded from questionable.

DJ Lagway is set to return for Baylor after missing the Sept. 5 game because of an ankle injury. The team's medical staff approved his return after coach Dave Aranda forecast earlier in the week that he could play. Nate Bennett will return to a backup role after starting twice.

In those games, he completed 75% of his passes, producing 567 yards, six touchdowns and two interceptions. He also added 15 rushing yards and two touchdowns.

Colorado will be without Danny Scudero, Preston Ashley, Colby Johnson, Vili Taufatofua, Demetrius Hunter and Charlie Williams. Scudero and Williams have totaled 94 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown this season. Xavier Payne remains listed as a game-time decision.

The game is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 26, at 11 a.m. Central at McLane Stadium and will air on ESPN2, with Lowell Galindo and Kirk Morrison scheduled to call it. The report was published by si.com.
