Baylor football the past 4 years (when they've supposedly become better than CU during the Hawkins rebuilding era):
2006: 4-8
2007: 3-9
2008: 4-8
2009: 4-8
BU Total: 15-33 (4 wins against 1-AA competition), 6 conference wins, 0 bowl games, avg Rivals recruiting class rank of 52.25 (high of #39)
In what is largely considered the worst slump in our program's history, let's see how CU compares with what Baylor fans consider a great period for their program:
CU Total: 16-33 (1 win against 1-AA competition), 10 conference wins, 1 bowl game, avg Rivals recruiting class rank of 40.25 (high of #15)
It's not even worth going into the history, but it's fun to do so. CU's a top 25 program in all-time wins and in prestige (as ranked by ESPN). We've also got a national championship, Heisman winner, multiple winners of the other national awards (Mackey, Thorpe, etc.), multiple members in the college football hall of fame, a Big 12 championship, and a winning record against Texas A&M and Texas Tech as well as Baylor (Texas has us at 7-10). We're the only program in the nation that has beaten Texas-Oklahoma-Nebraska in the same season and we've done it multiple times, and we even have a winning record against current Pac 10 members (38-34-1) despite going 0-5 versus USC (note how often we're playing tough non-conference opponents despite the difficulty of the conference we've been in). What does Baylor have going for it in football? Well, I think I remember Mike Singletary playing for them in the 1970s.
Baylor also talks about its recent success in men's basketball. And I will be the first to admit that they did a much better job of bouncing back from the scandal of covering up a murder within the program than we did of bouncing back from the scandal of sexual misconduct being alleged against some of our players. Their Elite 8 run this past season was very nice. Too bad they had that loss to CU on their resume. If we hadn't abused them in Boulder, I may have been a bit more impressed by their run. Also, CU has more NCAA tourney appearances than Baylor. Kind of sad when you consider they pride themselves on basketball.
