Baylor is going to pile up points against a rebuilding and weak Texas State defense. The Bears averaged 32 points last season and upgraded their offensive line getting the highly-touted Barrington brothers, Campbell and Clark, as transfers from BYU. Baylor's top two runners, Richard Reese and Oklahoma State transfer Dominic Richardson, combined to rush for 2,111 yards last year.

The key here is Texas State is going to pick up its offensive production under new coach, 34-year-old whiz kid G.J. Kinne, whose Incarnate Word team was the No. 1 scoring team in the FCS and ranked No. 2 in total offense last year playing at a lightning-fast tempo. Kinne brought in a lot of intriguing skill position players to make his offense work.

Baylor is vulnerable in the secondary with an inexperienced crew. The Bears had just 14 sacks in their last eight games last season. So expect a lot of points.
