If you're still stinging from Saturday, so is Kalani Sitake: it was one of the most devastating losses of his 11-year tenure at BYU. The Cougars (4-2, 7-2) aren't out of the CFP race or the Dec. 4 Big 12 title game. But the committee hasn't looked favorably on two-loss teams outside the SEC and Big Ten since 2014.

Next up is Baylor, winners of two straight since firing its head coach. Players say they're putting the loss behind them. Asked about the playoff growing to 24 teams next year, he joked, “Yeah, I wish it were 24 teams this year.”

  • TV: Fox
  • Baylor: has won two straight, with one of the Big 12's better defenses
  • LJ Martin: Sitake says he'll get more than last week's carries
  • Bachmeier: teammates expect him to bounce back

BYU's playoff hopes hinge on three dates

  1. Nov. 10The CFP committee will release its next rankings.
  2. Nov. 14BYU will host Baylor at 1:30 p.m. at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
  3. Dec. 4The Big 12's final championship game is scheduled.
