The Vics advanced cautiously to 1-61 off 28 overs to trail the visitors by 288 at tea on day two.
Marcus Harris, in his final match prior to next month's Test series in Pakistan, was unbeaten on 30 with captain Peter Handscomb also at the crease on 23.
Gurinder Sandhu (1-17) helped Queensland make the perfect start with the ball by having Travis Dean caught for four.
Earlier, Queensland proved there are runs in the St Kilda deck by lashing 128 during the morning session.
Resuming at 6-221 after a laborious day one, Jack Clayton led the way with a century as the Bulls scored freely to reach 349.
Clayton posted 109 on his first-class debut with 12 boundaries and a six in an impressive 235-ball knock.
The No.4 received strong support from James Bazley (64), who also hit his highest score, and tail-ender Matt Kuhnemann (24 not out).
