Invincible: 2012 Baylor Lady Bears, NCAA Champions
Never in the history of college basketball has there been a season like the Baylor Lady Bears' 2012 season. They went 40-0, winning a national championship and leaving no question in anyone's mind who was the best women's college basketball team in the country. It was a season Baylor fans will remember for a long time, but just to jog your memory a bit, Invincible captures the season in book form.

Year of the Bear
College football season starts this weekend, my favorite time of the year! As Baylor heads into the post-RGIII era, the questions abound, but there's no question that 2011-2012 was the Year of the Bear! Starting with the season-opening nail biter at home, a 50-48 win over TCU, then beating OU for the first time ever in another nail biter, and capping off the season with the first bowl win since 1992, RGIII and the Bears were a joy to watch!
The fun was just beginning, though! The women's and men's basketball teams started out their seasons with style. The men won their first 17 games before they lost, finishing the season 30-8, including their second Elite Eight appearance in 3 years. The women, led by the incomparable Brittney Griner, rewrote the record books, winning all 40 games and the national championship. Then baseball set records, winning their first 18 games on their way to a Super Regional appearance, a heart-breaking wild pitch away from the College World Series.
If you follow Baylor sports, none of this is news to you, and if you read the Waco Tribune-Herald, you've read most of the content of Year of the Bear. But every Baylor sports fan will want this collection, a keepsake of "The Winningest Year in College Sports History." With articles highlighting the most memorable moments of the Year of the Bear, and fabulous pictures capturing those moments, this book will help you relive this great year. Baylor fans, I'm not saying we'll never have another year like this one, but this year has been really special for us. We've heard the insults, endured the slurs, ridden the bottom ten, and sat through miserable losses. Now when someone starts to denigrate Baylor sports, you can say, "Wait a minute, let me tell you about the Year of the Bear," and pull out this book for proof of the greatest year Baylor has ever seen--so far!
Sic 'em, Bears!
