IT'S GAME TIME!

Rain, Rain Go Away

And here it is. The cornerstone of Baylor spirit and the centerpiece of the Homecoming weekend: Baylor Football. We win some, we lose some, but no matter what the outcome is, there is no doubt that Floyd Casey Stadium is always a sea of green and gold at this event. Every year fans and alumni don their Baylor gear and cheer their team to victory underneath the hot Saturday afternoon sun. 

Freshman Fans Adorned in Line Jerseys

However, the weather at this year's game offered a little more precipitation than expected. Baylor vs. Kansas State occurred October 23 at 2:30 p.m. but right before the kickoff, a monsoon-like rain hit the stadium. Audience members and players alike took shelter as a sheet of water covered the field. Although the game was delayed several times due to the storm, it did not seem to phase the Bears. A little rain never hurt anyone, and the Bears soared through the game, beating the Kansas Wildcats 47 to 42. At the conclusion of Baylor's victory, fans rushed the field and sang the school song with pride. This year's Homecoming game was especially significant, because it marked Baylor as the first team in the Big 12 South district to become Bowl Official.
