Art Briles could perhaps be forgiven for his disappointment at his team not being picked to win the Big 12 conference in 2015 (Lindyssports.com). After all, once-moribund Baylor is now the winner of the last two conference titles and was still in the college football playoff hunt late into the season. But for a shock loss at West Virginia, the Bears would have absolutely made it to the final four. Instead, Baylor failed to close out Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl, and the luster was off the golden Bears.
But Briles is not one to look back.
