  "account": "As the Big 12 season begins, the upcoming game between Colorado and Baylor holds significant importance for both teams. Baylor, led by head coach Deion Sanders, has shown promise, overcoming a close loss to Auburn early in the season before posting wins against Prairie View A&M and Louisiana Tech. To achieve their first 3-1 start since 2022, Baylor faces a challenging schedule ahead. Meanwhile, Colorado (2-1) has its own concerns after a thrilling win over Georgia Tech but failing to capitalize in a 41-7 loss to Northwestern. A repeat of the last year's collapse could prove disastrous for Colorado.\n\nIn this matchup, Colorado boasts a 10-7 overall record against Baylor, with their last meeting resulting in a 38-31 Buffalo victory in 2024. Baylor will commence their road game spree with a match against Arizona State starting next week. On the other hand, Colorado will have a three-game home stretch in the following four weeks, including games against Texas Tech, Utah, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State.\n\nTo watch the game, it will be held on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at 12:00 PM ET on ESPN2. The contest will take place at McLane Stadium in Waco, Texas, marking Week 4 in the CFN Expert Picks schedule and predictions.",
