Kansas plays host to No. 3 Baylor on Saturday, and in ways measurable and tangible, we may be witnessing the biggest mismatch in Big 12 history.
The Jayhawks are 0-4, barreling toward their first winless season in 61 years, and going with a true freshman quarterback making the first start of his career. The Bears are 4-0, coming off consecutive Big 12 regular-season championships, and beating opponents by an average score of 64-26. As of Monday evening, less than five days before the teams kick off at 11 a.m. Saturday, Baylor was a comfortable 44 1/2-point favorite.
