Baylor football back from idle week, set for first-ever matchup at Cincinnati

Baylor football has the opportunity to continue its 2023 road success with a game against Cincinnati on Saturday. The team has faced a home-field disadvantage, losing six straight games to FBS opponents at McLane Stadium dating back to the 2022 season.

The Bears’ only win in Waco since Oct. 22, 2022, came via a 30-7 victory over FCS-member Long Island on Sept. 16. In its only road game, the squad put together the largest comeback in school history, defeating UCF 36-35 on Sept. 30 in Orlando, Fla.

Head coach Dave Aranda said the home woes are “unacceptable” and that the team is looking for ways to improve in Waco.
