Here’s how to watch Tuesday’s 2016 Cactus Bowl between the Boise State Broncos and Baylor Bears online.

The Baylor Bears will try to snap a six game losing streak on Tuesday night when they take on the Boise State Broncos in the 2016 Cactus Bowl at Chase Field.

Baylor had high hopes in mid-October with a 6-0 record and No. 8 ranking in the AP Poll. Since then, the Bears have gone winless, becoming the second team in Power Five history to finish at 6-6 following a 6-0 start, while also losing quarterback Seth Russell to a fractured ankle.

Freshman Zach Smith has filled in for Russell over the last four games and thrown for 1,151 yards and 10 touchdowns to six interceptions. With running back Shock Linwood sitting out to focus on the NFL draft, Baylor will rely heavily on Terrance Williams, who piled up 160 rushes for 945 yards and 11 touchdowns.

Tuesday’s game begins at 10:15 p.m. Eastern on ESPN, with full streaming details available below.

Boise State reached the double-digit win plateau in the regular season for the eighth time in the past 10 years with a mark of 10-2. The Broncos had hopes of qualifying for the New Year’s Six after earning a strong nonconference win over Washington State, but fell short due to losses against Wyoming and Air Force.

Running back Jeremy McNichols is one of top do-it-all playmakers in the nation and racked up 2,113 total yards from scrimmage this season with 27 touchdowns. Sophomore quarterback Brett Rypien was also effective with 3,341 passing yards and 23 touchdowns.

The Broncos are a significant favorite against a Baylor team that has looked lifeless for weeks. Still, Boise State did lose a couple of games against lesser teams during the regular season, and the Bears will be desperate to salvage something before new head coach Matt Rhule takes over.
