Bears and Broncos set to clash in the desert
A lot has happened since the last time Baylor football took the field.
Since the Bears’ 24-21 loss at West Virginia on Dec. 3, Baylor hired former Temple head coach Matt Rhule to replace acting head coach Jim Grobe after the season. Rhule has been active in completing his staff and attempting to bring in the next class of Baylor football. On Dec. 20, senior running back Shock Linwood announced that he was skipping the bowl game to focus on preparing for the NFL’s April draft.
Grobe said all of that is now in the rearview mirror. The only focus now is on beating Boise State.
