It’s the start of another college football season and the Baylor Bears, fresh off a second consecutive Big 12 championship, are reloaded for another title run. The Bears also have a good chance to become one of the final four in the College Football Playoff, something that the Bears barely missed out on in 2014.
“We’ve used last season [as motivation]. We knew somebody would get fifth, we just didn’t know it’d be us,” head coach Art Briles said in an ESPN interview.
The playoff snub isn’t the only source of motivation the Bears will have at their disposal coming into 2015.
