The Broncos take the field in 15 minutes for one last hurrah in 2016 and hope to claim their 3rd P5 victim of the year. It's been a long December (even the Counting Crows would agree) with the Broncos having to sit out the MWC title game (again) and twiddle their thumbs whilst the NY6 matchups were released, but they've got one last chance to show what a surprisingly great team they were this season. A win over Baylor tonight isn't going to cure all the ills of losing thrice to Air Force and failing to finish off Wyoming, but it will probably let them finish the year in the top 25 again and give good momentum into National Signing Day and Spring ball...so there's that. Also, this is your last chance to see Bronco greats like Ben Weaver, Thomas Sperbeck, and Jeremy McNichols lace up in blue and orange and I'm sure the game means plenty to them. We'll be around after the trophy presentation to recap the game and all your OBNUG friends will be hanging out in this game thread, so allow us to pull aside the velvet ropes for you.
