Kansas is a bad football team. They will be better, but they are still nowhere near the level of Baylor. I expect the Bears to dominate this game and run up a big number on the Jayhawks.

Will Kansas be better in 2022? Yes. Will the Bears regress in certain areas due to a lack of depth? Perhaps.
Will any of this matter in the end for Baylor? Nope.

Coach Dave Aranda and the Bears handled the Jayhawks easily last season, and this year shouldn't be much different.
Kansas will field a better team than it did in 2021, but in the end, the Bears will still come out on top -- especially considering they'll be playing at home in front of their fans in Waco, Texas.
Look for another big win from these Big 12 contenders.

This game was not remotely close last season, as the Baylor Bears routed the Kansas Jayhawks 45-7, racking up 576 yards of total offense in the process.
While it might be slightly more competitive this season, as the Jayhawks look to make positive strides, this will likely still be a blowout victory for the Bears.

Kansas has the talent and potential to win four or five games this year. Now, that may not sound like a lot to Baylor fans. But for Kansas, that would be a huge improvement under second-year coach Lance Leipold.
But, the thing is, one of those four or five games won't be one of those wins. The talent gap is just too significant here. Close game for a while? Possibly. But it's a Baylor win.
