"We are excited to begin a football series with Utah," said Baylor Director of Athletics Ian McCaw. "The Utes have enjoyed considerable success on the national level including five 10-win seasons since 2003."
It will mark Baylor's first-regular-season series against a Pac-12 opponent since a two-game set against Washington State in 2006 and 2008. Baylor is 22-20 all-time against Pac-12 foes, most-recently handing then-17th-ranked UCLA a 49-26 loss in the 2012 Bridgepoint Educator's Holiday Bowl in San Diego.
Baylor, which has won back-to-back Big 12 titles and won 10 or more games in consecutive seasons for the first time in program history, finished 11-2 overall in 2014 while Utah capped a 9-4 season with a Las Vegas bowl win over Colorado State. The Bears have played in a school-record five consecutive bowl games entering the 2015 campaign while Utah has made nine bowl trips in the past 11 seasons.
