1. Baylor Bears (Record: 6-0)

The Baylor Bears currently rank No. 8 in the Associated Press Poll, and No. 6 in the Coaches Poll through six games. With a bye before taking on the Texas Longhorns in Austin this weekend, it certainly gives the Bears time to recover in hopes of avoiding an upset, and maintaining its conference dominance.

With the Longhorns’ defense in an adjustment period, there will be only film from Texas’ loss against Kansas State to dissect and analyze; which could be beneficial for Charlie Strong.
