Baylor follows up its road matchup against Oklahoma with a home game against the Kansas State Wildcats on October 6th. This could be an extremely important home game for the Bears, as one of the more likely wins needed to reach 6 and go to a bowl game.
S&P+ has Kansas State projected at 5-7 this year, missing a bowl game. However, S&P+ projected them similarly last year and Bill Snyder somehow willed them to 8 wins. So there is reason to believe the Wildcats could again overachieve. However, there is some turmoil to resolve as Snyder has two new coordinators to get settled in.
