Baylor Football: 5 bold predictions for November 2017
By Matt Workman
4. Baylor will beat Kansas by three scores
Baylor is in search of a win in the worst way. The Bears have been in a lot of games late and can’t seem to put a win together. With all of Baylor’s struggles, Kansas will be the worst team the Bears will face all year and while Kansas has a win this season, it came against an FCS opponent that is 2-8 in its conference.
Kansas is giving up an average of 459 yard per game and Baylor has a talent advantage over the Jayhawks with the likes of Denzel Mims, Blake Lynch, Terence Williams. Baylor should have no problem moving the ball and putting points on the board whether it’s Charlie Brewer or Zach Smith — either quarterback should have a good day against the Kansas defense.
While Baylor is winless, the Bears are not as bad as their record would indicate. Kansas, on the other hand, may be worse than their record. This is a team that managed 21 total yards of offense against TCU. It may be the battle for last place but Baylor has no excuse to lose to Kansas.
