🎙 BAYLOR+: INSIDE BAYLOR SPORTS

On today's episode we're taking an early week look at Baylor football's upcoming matchup against Utah.

We'll discuss what to watch for, key players for Utah, and hear from Coach Aranda as he took the podium on Monday.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Let Me Introduce Myself. What an introduction by Keaton Thomas.

Thomas, a JUCO All-American at Northeast Mississippi CC, was highly-touted when he arrived in Waco and he surely lived up to the billing in his Baylor debut.

The Jacksonville, Fla. native had four tackles and a first-half pick six in the Bears’ rout of Tarleton on Saturday at McLane Stadium.

🔼 Locked Up. As the WNBA season winds down to its final weeks, a pair of former Bears locked up spots on their squads entering the playoff race.

Caitlin Bickle, who has been with the Connecticut Sun for the past few weeks, was signed to a deal for the rest of the season, while Queen Egbo earned a spot on the Las Vegas Aces roster.

🎥 BAYLOR+: THE SIC 'EM POD

On this week's episode we're catching up with
legendary Baylor linebacker Derrel Luce.

Luce begain his career with the Bears in 1971 and played under
Head Coach Grant Teaff for several years, until ultimately
becoming a captain and All-American in 1974.

When life gets difficult, see the difference having a trusted attorney can make. Because here at Butz Law Firm; "Your legal rights are our business."

A partnership unlike any other.

This summer, Baylor Athletics introduced an innovative collaboration to further support the fandom of passionate Baylor fans worldwide. 

In a first-of-its-kind collaboration, Baylor+ has joined forces with SicEm365 to launch the Baylor+ SicEm365 Bundle, a one-stop-shop providing fans with access to both platforms at a significant discount.

🎥 BAYLOR+: THE MIRACLE

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of one of the most inspiring underdog stories in college football history, Baylor+ announced today the upcoming premiere of a new original documentary, The Miracle on the Brazos. 

The film tells the complete story of the 1974 Baylor Bears football team under legendary head coach Grant Teaff, who defied all odds to capture their first undisputed conference title in 50 years.  

Predicted to finish last in the Southwest Conference, Baylor dropped its first two games of the 1974 season before the Bears won 8 of their next 9 – including the iconic comeback victory against Texas – en route to an appearance in the Cotton Bowl.
