The Baylor Bears (1-0) will take on the SMU Mustangs (1-0) on Saturday afternoon at 2:30 p.m. CT in a game at McLane Stadium in Waco which will be televised nationally on FS1. The Bears defeated the Mustangs last fall with a final score of 56-21. 

Baylor-SMU Series History

  • Baylor and SMU meet for the 82nd-time Saturday. The Bears lead the all-time series, 38-36-7 and 19-18-3 in Waco.
  • Last year, Baylor produced a 56-21 victory over the Mustangs in Dallas in the season-opener. BU held SMU scoreless in the second half.
  • The last time in Waco, the two teams met to open the 2014 season as well with BU shutting out SMU, 45-0, in the inaugural game at McLane Stadium.
  • The Bears have won each of the last 12 meetings dating back to 1986.
  • The previous four series meetings have all been the season opener for both teams (BU also won, 28-23, in 2005 & 59-24 in 2012).
  • The Bears and Mustangs first met on Oct. 7, 1916, with Baylor dominating in a 62-0 rout in Dallas.
  • Starting with the first meeting in 1916, the teams met each season (with the exception of World War II) through 1986, a span of 70 years. NCAA sanctions forced the cancellation of SMU’s 1987 season and University officials cancelled the Mustangs’ 1988 campaign. The teams then picked up their Southwest Conference rivalry in 1989, playing yearly until Baylor joined the Big 12 to start the 1996 season.
  • Since moving into the Big 12 Conference in 1996, Baylor is 9-0 in non-conference games against former Southwestern Conference (non-Big 12) rivals -- 5-0 vs. SMU and 4-0 vs. Rice.
  • Defensive coordinator Phil Bennett will be facing his former team during Saturday’s game. Bennett was the head coach at SMU from 2002-07.

Neither OL or DL looking impressive. B12 teams are going to make us pay.

Platt didn't even get a hand on that. A little under thrown but very ugly. Time to stop protecting Seth. Roll him out and let him open this thing up.

Tulsa is shredding tOSU's d-line.

I guess if I want to watch the Baylor offense today, I'm going to have to watch Tulsa.

DTBear

We need someone on offense to start a fight. Not an OL we do not have enough.

OL sucking. Offensive staff getting free checks. Everyone wanted to beg them to stay after beating northwestern Kentucky dresser drawer sideline meatloaf tech.

And then he does that...

Oh wait. Penalty.

I like how Morris handled that w/ his player. Talked to him in a good way because he knew he screwed up badly and patted him on the head. Then he lets his ST/Def coach light into him.
