Locked and loaded: Baylor football readies for chilly Armed Forces Bowl

By Michael Haag | Sports Editor

Ice-cold weather conditions, a rival’s stadium and lots of rushing yards.

Those are three things Baylor football fans can expect when the team meets the United States Air Force Academy’s football program in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl on Thursday. The game is set to kick off at 6:30 p.m. from Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth — home of the Bears’ Big 12 rival, No. 3 Texas Christian University.

The forecast is not a desirable one, as warnings of dangerous wind chills and temperatures well below freezing are expected.
