Baylor Bears 2026 Season Preview
The Bears are coming off a challenging 2025 campaign, finishing 5–7 overall (3–6 Big 12) and struggling significantly for bettors with a 2–10–0 ATS record. Despite the losing season, head coach Dave Aranda enters 2026 with a high-profile roster overhaul, headlined by the transfer of former five-star quarterback DJ Lagway from Florida to replace Sawyer Robertson.
Betting on the Baylor Bears
Home vs. Road Over/Under Records
One of the most actionable edges for Baylor recently has been their performance at McClane Stadium. In 2025, the total went OVER in 3 of the Bears' last 7 home games, often due to an offense that averaged 31.1 PPG while the defense struggled, ranking 122nd nationally by allowing 32.6 PPG.
Conversely, Baylor was a difficult bet on the road, going 1–4 ATS in away games. Oddsmakers often overvalued the Bears' road potency, leading to failed covers in hostile environments like Cincinnati and Arizona.
Baylor 2026 ATS Performance
Baylor’s 2–10 ATS mark in 2025 was a stark reversal from their 9–3 ATS success in 2024. The primary factor was a defensive unit that allowed 391 total points. Looking forward to 2026, the market will likely adjust Baylor’s spreads downward until the revamped offensive line—featuring portal additions like Yakiri Walker and Cole Rhett—proves it can protect Lagway and sustain drives.
Baylor Props & Futures
With the arrival of DJ Lagway, Heisman Trophy futures and passing yardage props will likely see heavy volume. Lagway joins a receiving corps that must replace three top targets, making early-season player props a volatile but high-reward market.
In the futures market, Baylor's 2026 Season Win Total is expected to open around 5.5 or 6.5. Bettors will have to decide if the "Aranda Hot Seat" narrative and a brutal late-season stretch (at BYU, vs. Texas Tech, at Houston) warrant an Under bet, or if the influx of talent can return Baylor to Big 12 contention.
