Baylor (1-5) is back at home after a week off to face Kansas State (4-4) on Saturday at 6:00 p.m. CT in a game that will be aired on ESPN2. 


Baylor vs. Texas Tech Primer

As bad as Kansas State needs a victory to overcome their recent slump, Baylor’s five-game losing streak is a bigger thorn in the side of Dave Aranda’s Bears and with games against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State remaining, this is the best chance to get another this season.

Since opening the season with a win over Kansas, Baylor has dropped five games in a row in a variety of ways by an average of seven points. More frustrating is that Baylor very well should have won three of the five with a loss to West Virginia in double overtime and most recently two consecutive losses to Iowa State and Texas Tech where the Bears led by double digits in the second half. Baylor fell to the Red Raiders on a field goal to end regulation. 

For Kansas State, the Wildcats have had a back-and-forth eight-game season that began with a loss to Arkansas State of the Sun Belt and was immediately followed up with a victory over then No. 3 Oklahoma. KSU strung together four wins in a row, but are now in the midst of a three-game losing streak including most recently a 45-0 loss to Iowa State. 

Baylor will see the return of offensive weapons John Lovett, Tyquan Thornton and tight end Ben Sims against the Wildcats. On the other hand, KSU could very well be without the starting linebacker duo of Justin Hughes and Elijah Sullivan.

Preview and Prediction

 

Baylor vs. Texas Tech Prediction

Written by Sam Bradshaw (S11)

Baylor is more consistent stopping their opponent and outside of the outing in Morgantown have moved the ball better against common foes.   KSU has a great kicking and return game that should make an impact.  This one can go either way.

KSU gets a score or two off of short fields or returns but it’s not quite enough.   Baylor gets the W but the kicking game issues that plagued them against TCU and ISU make Baylor fans sweat for it.

Baylor 24, KSU 23

It obviously hit our player. The announcers must have 19" CRT tvs at their houses.
Noooo evidence for that, babeeyyy, just maaade it up.

To me they sound like they know they got stuck with the worst game of the week in P5.

It was the referee who said that, not the announcers.

I don't care if he's in game 7. Dave Aranda so far is a truly pathetic head coach. He's had 2 weeks to prepare for a bad bad KSU team and so far he's getting completely owned by Kleinman. It's like watching a pee wee coach vs an NFL coach

Hey, look on the bright side. The coaching staff had two FULL WEEKS of practice to show you this. You aren't impressed?

Did JSU even have 100 yards of total offense vs ISU? This team is the worst P5 team in the country right now

Fedora and Wickline should donate their paychecks to The Salvation Army. They had two weeks to prepare and this looks like an offense and offensive line that spent two weeks eating cereal and playing video games.

This offensive performance brings back fond (?) memories of 1999-2002.

I don't know how much more of this I can watch. This team does not look well coached, and not improving.
