In the second episode of Baylor’s Bearly Presidential Podcast, Aurora, Colo., senior, Student Body President and newly minted podcast host Lily Davis sat down with the redshirt junior and Mississippi State transfer. The conversation began with a discussion of a historic 37-34 win against TCU, moved into life as a student and as a Christian and finally found its way to an array of bizarre personal stories.

It’s season 4, episode 9 of the Baylor Lariat’s football podcast Don’t Feed the Bears! Braden Murray, Joe Pratt and…

It’s one thing to be a part of Baylor football history, but it’s another to witness it for nearly three decades. For 301 consecutive Baylor football games, there has been one constant reporting from the sideline. Through blazing Texas heat and pouring rain, sideline radio analyst Ricky Thompson has been there for it all.

“It’s really important to do stuff like this,” Hankins said. “This is a good platform for us to show Jesus to others, especially to the kids that might not have the opportunity to get toys on Christmas.”

Those who attended the Baylor and TCU rivalry football game on Saturday at McLane Stadium witnessed a home win that had not occurred in a decade. Redshirt junior kicker Isaiah Hankins kicked the game-winning field goal during the final seconds of the fourth quarter to give Baylor the 37-34 win over TCU.

Ten years from kicker Chris Callahan’s historic last-second game-winning field goal to knock off TCU 61-58, redshirt junior kicker Isaiah Hankins replicated the magic with a 33-yard field goal as time expired to help Baylor football knock off their in-state rival, 37-34, on Saturday night at McLane Stadium.

Informally called the ‘Revivalry’ for years, the 125-year-old Baylor-TCU rivalry formalized — and got a new official moniker — in 2023.

Looking to claim a three-game winning streak for the first time since 2022, Baylor football will host its first “blackout” since 2016 while celebrating the 2013 and 2014 Big 12 Championship before a rivalry game against TCU at 7 p.m. Saturday at McLane Stadium.

The 38-28 victory marked the Bears’ first Big 12 home win since Oct. 22, 2022.

Behind the most rushing yards in a single game in three years, Baylor football snapped an eight-game home losing streak to Big 12 opponents, knocking off Oklahoma State 38-28 on Saturday at McLane Stadium.

From watching Baylor football win a Big 12 Championship on the sidelines to starting in the Bears’ highest-scoring game against a Big 12 opponent under Aranda, Lengyel’s journey has been far from easy. But with a smile on his face, he rode the lows of struggling to find a place on the team to becoming one of the most exciting offensive linemen in the Big 12.

Although the Bears (3-4, 1-3 Big 12) snapped a nine-game losing streak against Big 12 schools with their 59-35 win over Texas Tech out of the bye week, against the Cowboys (3-4, 0-4 Big 12) the green and gold will have another gnarly losing streak to snap. Since the 2021 Big 12 Championship season, Baylor has only won one game against an in-conference foe at home – a 35-23 homecoming win over Kansas on Oct. 22, 2022.

Bring back the golden helmets that light up the field. Add bear claws that were once stamped on the shoulder pads. Baylor’s uniform tradition is rich and storied, and the program would do well to dust off its old threads.

Cameron’s seven touchdown receptions this season are the most of any Baylor receiver since Tyquan Thornton in 2021. He’s on pace to become the Bears’ first-ever walk-on with double-digit receiving touchdowns in a season. It’s history in the making for the Big 12’s most electric walk-on.

The stakes, scraping the tile for the better part of two seasons, have been cranked back up to 10. Every game matters, and on Saturday, the Bears played like it. The vibes were high; the intensity was even higher. If they keep it up, the Bears should finish with a winning record — and on a high note — for the first time since 2021.

On Texas Tech’s Homecoming weekend, Baylor football redshirt junior quarterback Sawyer Robertson returned to his hometown and became the first Bear to throw five touchdown passes in a game since Seth Russell in 2015. Behind Robertson’s big day, the green and gold snapped a nine-game losing streak against Big 12 schools dating back to 2023 as they took down the Red Raiders, 59-35, on Saturday at Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock.

Coming off a bye week two games below .500 at the halfway point in the season, Baylor football has a strong sense of urgency. Head coach Dave Aranda and the Bears caught their breath and rolled out a new game plan as the team prepares to clash with Texas Tech at 3 p.m. Saturday at Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock.

When Bryson Washington sprinted out of the tunnel and through the Baylor Line before football’s non-conference clash against Air Force, it was just like any other game. He had tucked a note he had written to his dad, who he lost at 3 years old, under his pads and jogged onto the field as he had done since high school.

At the midway point of the season, writers read the room.

Baylor’s rushing, defensive woes have marred the quarterback’s breakout season.

Silenced by 24 unanswered points to close the game, Baylor football dropped its eighth consecutive game against Big 12 programs dating back to 2023 as No. 16 Iowa State slammed the door with a 43-21 victory Saturday night at Jack Trice Stadium in Ames.

As much as fans need something to cheer for, the team needs something to fight for

From blowing a two-score lead against Colorado to a failed comeback against No. 22 BYU, Baylor football has been only a few plays away from sitting atop the Big 12. But after failing to find one more first down in Boulder and falling into a 21-0 deficit against the Cougars, the green and gold are still hanging on to the idea of proving themselves.

Allowing 21 unanswered points in the first 12 minutes of the game, Baylor football dug itself into a hole too big to overcome, falling to No. 22 BYU 34-28 on Saturday afternoon at McLane Stadium.

It’s same old, same old for the Bears, whose slow starts continue to make opponents look like world-beaters.

In Big 12 football, every week is another chance to prove yourself. For Baylor football, Saturday’s 11 a.m. matchup against No. 22 BYU at McLane Stadium isn’t just about bouncing back but also proving that losses won’t string together like they did in the previous two seasons.

From prime-time football in Colorado to penalty kicks on the Brazos, another eventful weekend in Baylor Athletics came and went. While the Bears fighting in the mountains were cast under the national spotlight, here’s everything else you may have missed in the Baylor sports world over the weekend.

Baylor football marched into Boulder looking to make a statement in front of a national audience. Instead, the prime-time duel was defined by Colorado’s improbable last-minute heroics which sealed a 38-31 overtime victory over the Bears on Saturday night at Folsom Field.

Reviving an old Big 12 Conference competition, Baylor football is set to meet Colorado after a 14-year hiatus in the national limelight against Coach Prime. While head coach Deion Sanders’ Buffaloes have been on at prime time since he took over the program in 2023, the Bears have stumbled off the national stage.
