North Carolina and Baylor is expected to be one of the most exciting games of the bowl season for the offensive-minded football fan.
So it is disappointing to learn that Baylor’s All-American WR Corey Coleman will miss the Russell Athletic Bowl with a sports hernia injury:

Coleman won the Biletnikoff Award, which honors college football’s top wide receiver, by obtaining more votes than Ole Miss WR Laquon Treadwell and TCU WR Josh Doctson.
Coleman led the nation with 20 touchdown receptions this season, while also piling up 1,363 yards receiving on 74 catches.
