A Season of Possibility
Baylor University is entering a pivotal year, one that could define the trajectory of its football program for years to come.
At the center of the optimism is DJ Lagway, a quarterback whose dual‑threat ability has already sparked talk of All‑American potential.
The Bears have addressed a leaky offensive line by welcoming a group of transfers who bring experience and physicality to the trenches.
Key Games and Milestones
A win over Auburn in the season opener would set a powerful tone, while road tests at Arizona State and BYU present both challenges and opportunities.
A must‑win matchup against Texas Tech later in the schedule could be the catalyst that propels the team into the upper tier of the conference.
Defensively, the addition of veterans such as Hosea Wheeler and Colby McCalister promises to stabilize a unit that has seen a influx of over 35 new players.
If the line clicks and Lagway can thrive under pressure, the Bears are projected to finish with seven to eight victories; a perfect early stretch could even push them toward a ten‑win campaign.
