Year: 2011

Down by 18 at one point, it appeared the magic of Baylor football’s 2011 season would end Thursday night in San Antonio against Washington. A team with a Heisman winner, however, did not give up that easy, and at the end of the night, confetti and balloons were raining down on head coach Art Briles and the Bears.

Brittney Griner scored 25 points and nearly notched a triple double as the No. 1 Lady Bears surged in the second half to topple No. 2 Connecticut, 66-61, Sunday night at the Ferrell Center.

Ten moments that helped shape Robert Griffin III’s career, plus images to remember from Baylor’s historic 2011 season.

Faith: something that holds the promise of a better tomorrow. Something shown by Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III and the reality of the tomorrow promised by head coach Art Briles when he came to Baylor in 2008.

Students and fans can celebrate the best of times with junior quarterback Robert Griffin III’s Heisman victory and the overall success of Baylor football today. Alumni, moreover, can look back at how Baylor football performed during their years and be even more thankful.
