BAYLOR

The Bears were the surprise team of college football season. After winning the league title and beating Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl, Baylor has a world of momentum on the field and in recruiting at stake. Anything less than a return to the Big 12 Championship will be a disappointment.
The pressure to repeat is on. After a true rollercoaster since the firing of Art Briles, the Bears will seek equilibrium at the top of the standings.

Thank you, Historian.

I read that article and start to daydream about how epic it would be for UT to finish under .500 and miss a bowl....

Pencil in wins: LA Monroe, UT-SA, WV, ISU
- as much as I'd love to see an upset from one of these games.....

Pencil in losses: Alabama, OSU, KSU, TT and Baylor
- Alabama rolls in the second half....OSU dominates from the opening kick....KSU hangs on and Baylor continues the streak of owning UT...

Toss-Up: OU, TCU and Kansas
- Yes, Kansas as a toss-up. but potential game to get to being bowl eligible....UT can't hope to beat Baylor in the last game of the season....

UT finishes 6-6

6-6 = a bowl, similar to D is for diploma.

Gotta be 5-7 at best.

The Game of Thrones continues.

And we are not just little Bear Island anymore. The Aranda regime is a Force Majeure.
