After opening Big 12 play with three straight losses, Baylor football is 2-4 for the second straight season. It’s the first time the Bears have opened a season 2-4 in back-to-back seasons since 2000-01, when Kevin Steele and Co. went a combined 5-17.
This Baylor roster is a lot more talented than those teams, but has struggled to put together complete games in narrow losses to then-No. 11 Utah, 23-12, Colorado, 38-31 in overtime and a 34-28 loss to No. 22 BYU. A path back to the postseason still exists, with six games against unranked teams remaining on the schedule.
