We like the Baylor Bears to defeat the BYU Cougars for a number of reasons. Here are some of the most important ones.

We played against Baylor last week. That was a bit of a fortunate win though, the Bears easily could have won. They held Colorado to 91 rushing yards on 42 rushing attempts.

The Bears, who brought back 19 starters, responded to their only other loss with a big win. They still remember a 2-OT loss at BYU in 2022.

The Bears are 2-0 at home. Off a 31-3 win over Air Force last home game, they have outscored teams by a 76-6 margin here.

BYU was 1-4 ATS in Big 12 road games last year.

The Bears bounce back and hand BYU its first loss. The play is Baylor
