Oklahoma's National Championship and Big 12 title hopes are up in the air as the Sooners host Baylor. These two teams have combined to win at least a share of the last six Big 12 championships, and both squads are 1-0 to start conference play. Realistically, the Bears won't be fighting for that crown this season, but they are much better than they were a year ago. If the Sooners can deliver a convincing win, it would go a long way toward calming the doubts that started to rise after their defense struggled vs Iowa State and Army.
For Baylor, it's about getting back to level playing field with the top of the Big 12.
