Saturday was a big day for the Baylor Bears. For the first time in its history, Baylor produced a Heisman trophy winner, as Robert Griffin III squeaked out a win over Andrew Luck for college football's top honor. Griffin III's win wasn't quite unexpected, but it was a moment of pure joy for Baylor fans, students and alums.
