Baylor 42, Colorado 30

Although I very much enjoyed a three-week stay on the campus of the University of Colorado in July 1985 for the National Session of the National Institute of Trial Advocacy, I've never been a fan of Colorado sports teams — too much trash talk for one thing.  And I have two nieces and a nephew who either are or have recently been Baylor students. 

So I can't help enjoying 19½-point underdog Baylor's 42-30 win over the Buffs in Waco this weekend.  Baylor has had so much bad news lately, and while it's completely unfair, it's nevertheless true that negative publicity in connection with a university's sports program can affect campus morale and self-image just as powerfully, or moreso, as positive publicity.  Go Bears!
