Preseason

Two Baylor players, linebacker Joe Pawelek and defensive back Jordan Lake, made the preseason All-Big 12 team. [cite press release|url=http://www.big12sports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/071708aab.html|title=2008 Preseason All-Big 12 Football Team Announced] Pawelek made at least 86 tackles in each of the previous two seasons, while Lake posted 120 tackles, two interceptions, forced two fumbles, and recovered two in 2007. Lake was Baylor's only all-Big 12 postseason selection in 2007.cite web|url=http://collegefootball.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=815223|title=2008 Rivals Preseason Countdown]

The Bears returned 15 starters, including 9 on offense, and 6 on defense. [cite news|url=http://www.amarillo.com/stories/081908/col_college1.shtml|title=Briles' Bears focus only on present]

In their preseason countdown, Rivals.com ranked the Bears' 2008 squad 92nd out of all 120 Division I FBS teams. The official Big 12 media preseason poll picked the Bears to finish last in the Big 12 South.
