Quotes of the Week

Senior Offensive Lineman Connor Galvin

"We know it's going to be loud, we know it's going to be rowdy. We know it's going to be one of those games where it's going to be down to the last play. That's just how Iowa State is, a lot of respect for them. So, it's just how we practice vs. how they practice."

Sophomore Linebacker Brooks Miller

"It's just so early. We're going to become so much better. Like in December, we're going to look back now and be like, wow, how were we running it that way, and now we're running it like this." 

Head Coach Dave Aranda

"I just feel that, as far as the view of who we want to be and consistently look like, I'd say Iowa State, is that in a lot of ways. They don't beat themselves, they are efficient with all their movements, and kind of what they do." 


Analysis of the Week

SicEm365 Analyst Sam Bradshaw

You have to take away Iowa State’s running game and Xavier Hutchinson. I think Baylor can rely on their front five to limit the run effectively as they’ve done to virtually everyone over the last year. This should get some additional help on wherever Hutchinson is. Additionally, Dekkers hasn’t seen anyone good blitz him with much regularity so there is certainly a place in the game plan for creepers and simulated pressures to get after the kid and make the new guy prove he won’t cough up the ball. He lost a ton of accuracy when Ohio got pressure on him so he may not handle pressure all that well yet.

However, my bigger takeaway is BU is going to have to do better not busting assignments. Last year Iowa State had several wide-open passes to the Tight Ends and Running Backs that Baylor simply didn’t have anyone covering.

I think all are automatically reviewed..they just don't announce it unless they buzz down to stop play.

How is that scoring play not reviewed? Not a TD.


I don't think they would've overturned it… But I was also shocked they did not at least look at it


Arent all touchdowns and turnover plays reviewed?
I have found theres only two ways to go:
Living fast or dying slow.
I dont want to live forever.
But I will live while I'm here.

TV broadcasters are so pro Iowa St. Going to switch over to the Baylor radio station in Dallas. Go Bears.

So bad they actually make you yearn for Beth Mowins instead.

If Shapen keeps the ball, it's a TD.

Mayers is hit and miss but thank you for that famous 51 yard field goal. Will never forget.

Then it was an atrocious read by Shapen. That run was blown up within 2 yards

Refresh my memory..why/how did Mayers lose the job..was their a game last year he was shaky in..or did he lose it before last season?

Maybe this will help his confidence

*** was that last call, wide run on 4th and goal. That had no chance. Why not pass the ball and have a chance. The only logical reason I can see to run it was if they thought they'd get it under 3 and go on 4th down. Throw the ball give it a chance.

As everyone said if Blake keeps it's a score.. maybe he made the wrong call.

Be nice to get some seperation and a score here to make the young QB press a little.

Blake is young and will get much better with experience, but it is becoming pretty evident why Grimes has to script plays for him. Reading the D and making on field decisions aredefinitely not Shapen's strongpoints. He has a lot of the other tools, but those are areas he will have to grow with experience.

..... most Pony fans will see the score and just keep heading down M'bird to the DCC and get started on the Bloody Mary / Screwdriver 'luncheon'.

When Shapen has time and WRs are open, he's so good
