In regard to the Sooners:
The Sooners have 16 returning starters and a very favorable schedule. They'll look to build on their Sugar Bowl victory over Alabama. Quarterback Trevor Knight will run the offense, and the front seven on defense are expected to be among the best in the nation.
In regard to the Sooners:
In regard to the Bears:
The Bears are coming off their first outright conference title since 1980, and with an offense as elite as the one they have, they will challenge for it again this season. Their QB Bryce Petty is a dark-horse candidate for the Heisman Trophy, but the team's defense will be the key. Baylor must improve on the 360.2 yards per game allowed last season.
In regard to the Longhorns:
There has been a changing of the guard in Austin. Longtime head coach Mack Brown resigned in December, and Charlie Strong will now take over after coming over from Louisville. Strong's first year may be a bit of a bumpy road with question marks along the offensive line. The front four will be the strength of the defense, led by defensive end Cedric Reed, who is coming off a 10-sack season in 2013.
