"Aranda told us his team had the lead last week down by 28 points going into the fourth quarter."

Playing for a FG per usual. Get into the RZ… run run pass kick
We weren't playing for a field goal. We just took an unsuccessful shot to the end zone on third down.

We're trying to score. We just suck.

I actually don't believe this team practices. Seriously.

This team is clear as day built to throw in order to open up the run… obvious to everyone but Grimes.

Guys, we have to establish a running game whether you like it or not. We can not win if we don't.

Throwing incomplete deep balls on second- and third-and-long over and over will get us blown out.


Why do we have to establish it 2 yards at a time?

Lmao that reverse o m g
I'm not saying we're doing a good job. But we will not beat anyone without a running game. We've got to find a way to get some yards on the ground.
i thought you were kidding, you were serious?

We need to use nabors more ! I don't see how the coaching staff doesn't see that


Why hand it right back to him after he just sprinted 60 yards

Our challenge is that poor blocking isn't relegated to just the offensive linemen on this team. The TEs aren't very good at it. The wides aren't very good at it. And the backs, other than Pendergrass are atrocious at it. I've seen Blake throw as many and better blocks as some of our skill position guys.

The 2 BYU OL are trash. Big miss in the transfer portal.

"I think Baylor is comfortable being down 14-0"

I don't ever want to hear an announcer say that.

We've thrown more than we've run today and are hitting just over 50 percent of our passes. That will get us blown out. Incomplete deep balls on first or second down are worse than two-yard runs up the middle.

The bottom line is we're not blocking anything, and our receivers aren't getting separation. That's why our offense looks the way it does. This isn't a play-calling issue today. We're getting whipped physically.

We ran two run plays on 1st 2nd. That's Frimes Mo in the RZ always has been. He coaches like a little ***** in the red zone. Passing game is there to be taken advantage of. He just won't capitalize. He's a scared little *****

this. hit a few slants, some crossing plays, wheel routes, etc. the lb's take two steps back. give your dudes a chance. this is setting the line and rb's up for failure.

That play was Grimes idea of up tempo. I hate the hurry up and run the ball. It's the easiest play to defend.

These guys just don't look like they're committed to playing football. They're just going thru the motions. Zero energy or intensity.

Makes zero sense wasted opportunity

And we have what 10 rushing yards? Tech is built to stop the inside run.. they are weak in the secondary.

Agreed, but trying to highlight any good things about this team isn't possible. It's bad in every aspect.

We can't establish a running game like that.

Theoretically, yes. But our guys have not been open downfield. Run or pass, players have to beat their defenders and ours aren't.

I would not normally be onboard with a mutiny but I'm all for the offensive players dumping Grimes

It's crazy watching a bad tech team do in one offensive series what we've not done all year

Huge break on the offensive PI. We've got to make a stop here.

We haven't all year. It's bizarre. We just slow it seems

I've long wondered if our schemes are overcomplicated. Guys who are successful elsewhere come here and look lost.
