Quotes of the Week

Senior Defensive Lineman TJ Franklin

"Definitely, we got this Gold Out thing this week. So, we're really excited for that. I know the fans and supporters are gonna bring a lot of energy with that. So that's definitely going to fuel us on the field." 

Junior Tight End Drake Dabney

"I think the main difference is just new people on the (OSU) defense. A lot of the same frontline guys, but definitely new secondary, new linebackers, but still the same fast Oklahoma State team. Lots of respect about that defense, they'll be bringing it.”

Head Coach Dave Aranda

"Yeah, I think (the defenisve backs’) confidence is increasing. And I think they're playing hard and practicing well. You look at the last week those guys had was their best week, and then they come out and play well. And so it's really cool to see, and we'd like to build on that." 


Analysis of the Week

Former Baylor QB J.J. Joe

This week will be a markedly different approach for Coach Grimes and Blake Shapen. The schedule is very similar to last year when Baylor went from playing an Iowa State defense that plays a little more bend-but-don't-break to a Cowboy defense that attacked our offense limiting the Gerry Bohannon-led offense to 280 Total yards.

Well, this Cowboy defense while under a new Defensive Coordinator Derek Mason remains an aggressive style of defense, especially on passing downs. The strength of the Cowboy defense has to be upfront. The Cowboys have a very experienced group that is highlighted by three (3) Sixth Year Seniors in Brock Martin (DE), Brendon Evers (DT), and Sione Asi (DT) plus one 5th year senior in Tyler Lacy (DE). These guys are men, I mean men. Their average age is over 24 years old. So our experienced offensive line will meet a very formidable front on Saturday.

We are just like the Aggies this season. Great defense, **** offense, great RB play, **** QB/WR play…even worse play calling.

Is it just me or is Shapen holding the ball way too long?


He is. Thought the guy would be a lot better than he is TBH. I could easily see Novosad getting playing time his freshman year, so that's something to look forward to

This offense has the least amount of weapons of any Baylor team in the past 20 years. Our wr are trash and can't find separation, our RB core is nothing special and our o line can't block

another play that should've been a loss but baylor players missing tackles and taking poor angles. yeah the baylor d can hold some blame for this too. offense is 98% but defense can have their 2%.

OSU has 178 yards of offense.

62 yards of Sanders running and 58 receiving yards by Presley. Maybe just shut those things down.

Can't wait for the Grimes defenders to try and defend this garbage. Aranda really needs to focus his recruiting on skill players because this group via bottom of the B12…

They are all on the premium board, and it's one reason I canceled my subscription. I don't have time to read a bunch of 20 something year old 'experts' tell me about how we are secretly great. The premium board was seriously talking playoffs during the off-season. Playoffs. I kid you not
