BIG 12 PREVIEWS DONE: SB Nation's Bill C has finished the portion of this year's CFB previews focusing on the Big 12, so 9 of our 12 opponents for 2013 are now ready for your consumption. This is a huge undertaking that you won't find anywhere else.

MOST ENTERTAINING CFB GAMES OF 2013: Does it surprise you that Baylor has 5 games in the top 25 for all of CFB and the entire B1G has 0? It shouldn't.

BAYLOR AND KENTUCKY 'CRUITIN' WITH THE BEST OF 'EM: That is a sentence nobody probably expected to hear 4 years ago. Or maybe even 4 months ago.

RULE CHANGE IN COLLEGE BBALL: I'm going to need someone to explain this one to me.

BAYLOR TRACK WITH A BRIGHT FUTURE:

He received that honor for...

So, Trayvon ... do you play football?

BAYLOR FOOTBALL RISES:Literally, the new stadium is rising over the trees and is almost now visible from the Highers Complex. That's pretty cool.

And that's all I have for today. Sorry about not posting for three days. That's inexcusable.
