There’s an uncomfortable underlying aspect to Baylor’s matchup with TCU this Saturday: this could be Baylor’s best remaining opportunity for a win this year. There’s no clear answer here—games like at Texas Tech and hosting Kansas State remain—but TCU has been scuffling lately and Baylor gets them at home.
This series has been, well, strange over the past handful of seasons. Things were wild in the Briles years, culminating in 2015 with probably the worst weather game I’ve ever seen (thankfully I was not there; my wife was, she assures me it was way worse than 2013 Baylor - Texas).
