Saturday they head on down to Austin to face a \u201cwho knows\u201d Texas team. On talent they should cruise for another easy victory but this will be the third road game in a road for Baylor. Are they perhaps a little weary.<\/p>\n<p>As long as the Bears have a top 10 offense and defense they are going to be in the hunt for a playoff spot. They are the top gaining and scoring team in the nation and the defense in 6th and 8th respectively in those categories. A funny stat so far is that even though QB Bryce Petty is a definite Heisman candidate he has the same number of TD throws as his backup. Look for him to start creating some distance there with this game as the Bear may go wild on Texas again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In his first season in Austin coach Charlie Strong appears to be strong on discipline but the result are just 2-2, with two home losses to boot. UCLA and BYU are quality teams no doubt but the Longhorns are quite likely going to be sub .500 after this one and looked just mediocre in beating Kansas 23-0 last week. With Oklahoma after Baylor and some tough road games to come it is possible this club doesn\u2019t even become bowl eligible. Just let that thought set in a little.<\/p>\n<p>I believe that Strong will have his guys prepared but that may not be enough. <\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=66501&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Texas is struggling once again on the offensive side of the ball and I don\u2019t think they are going to be able to shutdown the Bears defensively. In short, I just don\u2019t see how they are going to win the game. They might show better than expected but odds are they will fall like most B12 opponents have to the Bears over the last couple of seasons.<\/p>\n<h3>NCAA Football Handicapping Trends<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Bears are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games after accumulating more than 450 total yards in their previous game.<\/li>\n<li>Bears are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games after accumulating more than 280 yards passing in their previous game.<\/li>\n<li>Bears are 11-2-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a SU win of more than 20 points.<\/li>\n<li>Under is 4-0 in Longhorns last 4 conference games.<\/li>\n<li>Under is 8-1 in Longhorns last 9 vs. a team with a winning record.<\/li>\n<li>Under is 7-1 in Longhorns last 8 games overall.<\/li>\n<li>Bears are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings.<\/li>\n<li>Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Texas.<\/li>\n<li>Bears are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings in Texas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>NCAA Football Week #6 Prediction: \u00a0Baylor -15<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>NCAAF Score prediction: \u00a04* Play on\u00a0Baylor 49 &#8211; Texas 17<\/h3>\n<p>This looks like another easy victory for the Bears.
