Projection: next four out
Baylor's resume looks like a team on the outside looking in because its limited signature moments — neutral wins over Creighton and San Diego State and a solid nonconference victory over Washington — are far outweighed by damaging results such as home setbacks to Texas Tech and TCU and road defeats at Memphis and Kansas that expose defensive inconsistency. Conference play has produced more disappointing outcomes than resume builders and the remaining slate offers only narrow paths to recovery, with road trips to Iowa State and Houston and a home test against Arizona standing out as genuine opportunities to flip the script. Without a landmark road triumph or a signature victory at home Baylor will struggle to erase those costly losses and remain short of the field.
