It’s 2020, and norms are being busted on an hourly basis, but never, ever, ever, ever, ever mess with a streak.
If the gods go against you and decide now is the time for something to end, so be it. But sometimes, those same gods are trying to hand you a gift that goes beyond all logic and reason.
There was a time when Baylor couldn’t win a conference game. It was among the most reliably miserable programs in the country, going from 1996 to 2009 without a winning season. Things quickly changed from then on, and let’s just say there were a few massive issues that came along with that.
But since Baylor starting winning, there’s been one big flip. It’s good, and Kansas really, really isn’t.
Not only has Baylor beaten Kansas over the last ten years, it’s been among the most one-sided series in all of college football.
You’re worried about 17.5 points for a team going through a personnel and coaching staff overhaul?
61-6. That was Baylor’s win over Kansas last year.
The 26-7 victory in 2018 was a relative nail-biter, and why? Kansas has failed to score ten points against Baylor and any of the last five games, and it has only scored more than 14 once – a 31-30 loss in 2011 – in any of the last ten in the series.
You want ugly? 486-115, or an average of around 49-12. That’s been Baylor vs. Kansas over the last decade.
Again, it’s 2020 so enter at your own risk, but maybe this is a sign that traditions will continue on.
