Didn't think this would be the goal when the year started....but here we are.

We are a team with many flaws....but that's also the case with a lot of B12 teams.

Our remaining games:

ISU
UH
@KSU
@TCU
WVU

UH may be the only game we are favored in. Assuming we handle the Cougars we've got to find at least 2 wins in those other 4 games.

Baylor has been terribly inconsistent. But so have some of our future foes. Two or more wins and a bowl game is not completely out of the realm of possibility.

ISU and Houston are must wins if they want any shot of a bowl

Yep. Get to WVU with five wins and you've got a chance.

I'm not penciling in TCU as an auto-loss either, even though history suggests it should be. They've been horribly inconsistent this season, too.

It's definitely ironic that in a year with a home heavy schedule we are picking up our wins on the road

Y'all lost at home to a mediocre Colorado team and got housed by Iowa State. You'll have to forgive me if I'm not ready to pencil that one in as an L.

Win out the regular season to get to 8, play our bowl and win for a solid 9 win season…………..Baylor nation decides to go all in on NIL after seeing life. Recruits/transfers become interested and commit……..oh **** my nap is over

It is really amazing how mediocre tcu has been since joining P5

And of course historic shame

It's why nobody ever cared about any tcu scandals. They never threatened the establishment like baylor did

We'll probably lose. But that game is almost always close. And like you said, they're nothing special.

Yeah. Like the year 3/4 of the entire team huffed pot and the QB was the supplier.

Then the Keystone Light Assault on poor non-football kids.

Then the QB's habit of punching out Cops on nights before a bowl game.

Pshaw!

Baylor sucks this year....but TCU isn't setting the world on fire.

You are 4-3 with 4 wins over Nichols, UH, SMU, and BYU. So an FCS school, 2 teams that were G5 last year, and one team that is G5 this year.

Last year was great for you guys....but this isn't the year to be crowing on other team's fan boards.....and Georgia just scored again.

It's really funny. Tcu was a legit maybe 8-4 team last year. Mayyyyyyyybe 9-3.

Dunno how it ends but kstate is boat racing them. Kstate is tcus daddy and tcu still looking for some relevant hardware since joining the big 12

The only bowl that we currently deserve is the toilet bowl. I really hate to say that.

I don't think anyone seriously expects us to win in Manhattan this season.

Besides, we are due for a win over the frogs.

After watching UH and now KSU play today, we might be favored to win against TCU, but even that may be a wishful thinking.

Watching UT and OU we might not be much of an underdog against them.

Anyone else watch the Texas Houston game? I'm not writing that as a win. They only lost because some dumb kid lost his cool in the last possession and ripped someone's helmet off on a dead ball. Their defense owned Texas for 3 quarters after a weak start.
Let’s Go!

UH offensive line handled Texas very well, QB had a solid game and is athletic, UH defensive line pressured all game with only three down linemen rushing. UH looked very athletic and like a solid team. Still haven't figured out why forward progress on UH last drive was not reviewed. Runner made a full yard more than the refs gave him. UT got a big break on that call.

I think MBB can win in Manhattan but I have doubts about football. I will be very happy if I'm wrong.

They played well today, but that's been an outlier for them this season.

That will be an interesting game because they don't run the ball very well and they're really bad in the secondary. We might match up pretty well in that one.

TCU fans really looking for something to hang their hat on, and beating BU is apparently it. Which makes sense, with their lack of meaningful hardware in the Big XII.
