Once again, Baylor's offensive performance has exceeded expectations. In their first conference game of the year, the Bears had 864 total yards as they absolutely humiliated the West Virginia defense. Remarkably, the game was not as close as the final score indicated -- Baylor was up 56-14 at the half. But the pollsters still aren't convinced -- Baylor is ranked number 15 in the country, four spots below a UCLA team that the Bears destroyed in last season's Holiday Bowl.
The Bears have now won eight consecutive UCFC games -- the longest streak since a Florida team led by Tim Tebow won 13 in a row from January 8, 2009 to December 5, 2009. The Bears' all-time UCFC record is now 22-18-3.
West Virginia loses its second consecutive UCFC game, and the Mountaineers fall to 16-9 in UCFC match-ups.
Next week Baylor takes the Big Gold Trophy on the road for the first time, traveling to Manhattan, Kan. for a game against Kansas State.
