Waco, Texas ? Oklahoma State became bowl-eligible with a 45-14 victory Saturday night over Baylor, which finished the season without winning in the Big 12 and likely played its last game under coach Guy Morriss.

There has been growing speculation that Morriss, who has a year left on his contract, will be fired after being unable to produce a winning record in his five seasons. Morriss is 18-40 overall at Baylor, 7-33 in conference games.

Athletic director Ian McCaw, who has repeatedly said Morriss’ future wouldn’t be evaluated until after the season, turned down requests for interviews Saturday night. But the season is over for the Bears (3-9, 0-8 Big 12) and a change seems imminent, maybe as early as today.

Zac Robinson threw for 202 yards and two touchdowns and ran 17 times for 144 yards and two more scores to lead Oklahoma State (6-5, 4-3), which is bowl-eligible for the fifth time in six seasons. Dantrell Savage had his eighth straight 100-yard rushing game, with 109 yards and two TDs on 16 carries.

The Cowboys, who close the regular season at Oklahoma next week, never have been to five bowls in six seasons.

Baylor finished its 12th straight losing season, all coming under the four coaches since Grant Teaff left in 1992 after 128 victories and eight bowl appearances in 21 seasons.

The Bears are the only Big 12 team without a bowl appearance since the conference’s inception in 1996. This was the fourth time they didn’t win a league game. Only two other teams have gone 0-8 in the Big 12 – Kansas in 2002 and Iowa State in 2003.

If Morriss is fired, the likely leading candidate to replace him will be Baylor icon Mike Singletary, who played for Teaff from 1977-80. Singletary had no coaching experience when he interviewed for the job before Morriss was hired.

Singletary has been an NFL assistant coach since then. He spent two seasons in Baltimore and is in his third season as assistant head coach for the San Francisco 49ers.
