Baylor 2016 Record: 6-6 (3-6 Big 12)* Bowl game has not been played yet

All-Time Record vs. Baylor: 19-16-0

A sure regression is expected out of the Baylor Bears in 2017. They are currently sitting on a six-game losing streak after starting the season 6-0.

Only one commit remains in the Bears 2017 recruiting class. After a devastating scandal gutted the Baylor program, they are sure to feel the effects for the next few years. Positive news for Baylor fans comes in the way of the solid hire of former Temple head coach Matt Rhule. He was quoted as guaranteeing to bring championships to the Baylor football program.

The Bears own a three-game winning streak against the Cowboys after a 35-24 victory in Waco in 2016. However, a different result should be expected for the 2017 meeting in Stillwater.

Rudolph, Washington, and Hill should be able to have their way with what will be an inexperienced Baylor defense next season.
