Baylor is looking to rally its fanbase on homecoming with a win over Iowa State, who is coming off an upset over then-No. 24 Oklahoma State last week.
From its spotty fledgling years, ties to tragedy and the two world wars, the classic tradition that Baylor has shared with the nation began as a chance for students and alumni to combat the hardships of their day.
Fall is here, homecoming is around the corner and the Livingstones hosted their annual homecoming dinner for the Baylor community on Wednesday evening. Food trucks lined Third Street, grills were fired up and students lined up from Allbritton House to Marrs McLean.
