The Baylor Bears suffered a tough loss last weekend in Fort Worth, but Baylor is hoping to avenge the loss with a huge win this weekend. The Bears are traveling to Ohio to take on No. 21 Cincinnati.

Keys to a Baylor win over Cincinnati

Cincinnati is arguably going to be the toughest test Baylor has faced this season. Luckily, the Bears have been decent on the road, losing just one game this season -- last week to TCU. However, Baylor hasn't quite seen a QB as good as Brendan Sorsby.

Staff writer Josh Abraham wrote up Baylor's keys to the game and limiting explosive plays is one of the main keys.

"..The Bearcats wield an incredible offense that is known for scoring a lot of points. The Baylor defense, to say the least, has left a lot to be desired this season. There have been moments where they have shown potential, but have not been able to put a complete game together. If they want to win on Saturday, the Bears are going to need to limit the explosive plays of the Bearcats and keep the ball in front of them. By doing so, it will give the Baylor defense more opportunities to get a much-needed stop."
