The Bears have sported the neon highlighter jerseys the last few seasons, but last week they unveiled an updated version with "Sic 'Em Bears" on the front.

But Baylor says the NCAA won't allow it in the postseason.
Baylor will not wear "Sic 'Em Bears" uniforms in postseason. NCAA ruled only team name or mascot can be on front. #SicEm
