With Savea out against Cincinnati, Leroy Palu had three tackles and a 0.5 tackle for loss. Mays Pese had two tackles. Robinson had 7.0 tackles and a 0.5 TFL versus Cincinnati. Taye Brown, Max Harris and Riley Wilson provide Arizona with the depth at LB to absorb Robinson being out.
Hawkins has to sit out the first half after being ejected in Baylor's 55-28 loss to Utah last week. Hawkins is second on Baylor with 49 receptions for 578 yards. Aigbedion is Baylor's starting right guard for and Kalu, the starting nose tackle, has 11 tackles and a 0.5 TFL.
Burns, Baylor's backup rover, has 14 tackles and 1.5 TFLs. Baylor has four receivers with at least 35 receptions and 500 yards this season to absorb Hawkins being suspended for the first half. The game will likely depend on how well Baylor plays defensively against Arizona.
