Our Baylor vs. Colorado predictions are backing the Buffs to run rampant on the Bears.
Baylor's defense looks great on paper, but a closer look shows the competition hasn't exactly been stellar. Shedeur Sanders & Co. will tear the Bears apart.Coach Prime and the Colorado Buffaloes return home to Folsom Field after grabbing a comfortable 28-9 victory over Colorado State in Week 3.
A closer look at Baylor’s advanced metrics through three games quickly made it apparent why this team is being held in higher regard — the Bears have been nasty on the defensive side, ranking 19th in EPA per play and second in success rate while allowing just 9.7 points per game. Shedeur Sanders is an elite QB, but the offensive line in front of him is highly questionable, and we’ve seen this offense get shut down one too many times when he’s running around for his life due to constant pressure. Allow him time in the pocket, however, and he'll pick you apart with shots to Travis Hunter and the rest of his star-studded receiving corp.
Baylor’s first-year offensive coordinator, Jake Spavital, has this offense on the move, ranking 26th in plays per minute . Colorado isn’t far behind, ranking 29th with 2.35 plays per minute. Colorado’s defense has been much improved this season, but can you trust it? This is still a very thin group in terms of depth, and with the game expected to be played at a quick tempo, it’s very realistic to expect signs of wear in the second half.
