The Bears return a lot of talent, starting with Heisman trophy candidate Bryce Petty, and Art Briles has proven what he can do with superstar quarterbacks. Why bet against that, especially when a superstar quarterback is returning?

Baylor will beat the Sooners again, this time in Norman, defying the history of Bob Stoops teams in revenge games. But the Bears won’t go undefeated, with a likely slip-up to be expected somewhere. I’m calling Texas that slip-up.

The Baylor Bears won’t run the Big 12 table, and they’ll slip up again somewhere probably, but they’re likely a 10-2 team and will have the best record in the conference.
