San Antonio at Baylor Over 58
Baylor has a shot to win 10 games this season. The Bears must fare well in nonconference for that to happen. Baylor blasted Stephen F. Austin, 56-17, last week and the Bears should win big against the University Texas-San Antonio in this one.
The Bears should produce a lot of points based on their balanced attack, skill position depth and the Roadrunners’ weak secondary.
Charlie Brewer is one of the better quarterbacks in the Big 12. He is surrounded by good skill position players with Denzel Mims being one of the elite wide receivers in the conference. Baylor may have this one wrapped up at halftime. So its reserves figure to play extensively. Baylor backup QB Gerry Bohanon looked good last week.
Baylor rolled past UTSA, 37-20, on the road last season. The Roadrunners have improved offensively thanks to promising freshmen, dual threat QB Frank Harris and running back Sincere McCormick. The Bears’ defense is going through growing pains and will be vulnerable especially early in the season.
So expect the Roadrunners to contribute their share of points. Traditionally, Baylor has been an Over team in nonconference matchups with the Over cashing in 22 of the last 30 (73%) instances.
(I am 71-39-2 on my premium/free college football plays going back to last September, including going 18-6-2 on my last 26 CFB plays after cashing with underdog Marshall last night. I have five premium CFB plays going today headed by my Triple Star Nonconference Game of the Month.
