On Saturday night Baylor will either be 5-1 halfway through the season and in good shape to be a part of the conference title game discussion, or will be 4-2 and studying the schedule to figure out how they can get to bowl eligibility. I think Saturday’s game will be telling for head coach Dave Aranda, specifically, I believe fans will get a good idea of the program trajectory as well as his in-game coaching ability.
For the first time in his tenure (besides Kansas), coach Aranda will lead a team that is expected to win a conference game.
