Our O Line sucks. If we can fix the line I think we could be decent with Robertson at QB.


Ur nuts ,, we won't win another game ,,, who can we beat ?
Have you watched the Big 12 at all this year? Everyone but Utah, Kansas State and Oklahoma State is mediocre or worse.

Of course we would get the rare defensive holding call.

AF uses the same running play repeatedly. Time to figure it out already geeze
Welcome to the flexbone.
We need to run 3-4 with cloud support

I've been going to Baylor Football games for more than 40 years. I've seen a lot of really bad Baylor teams. This is another one.

if you're watching this defense and thinking its good...you're a homer and need to be honest about the product dave has produced

Not sure why AF would ever throw the ball. They can get first downs on the ground all night long.

our defense has also beeen on for a quarter already so cut a little bit of slack
And held up well. They've bent some, but haven't broken.

I continue to be proud of our defensive effort. Those dudes play really hard.


I don't see that. I see terrible tackling.

I'm not talking about the execution. I'm taking about the effort.

And I'm not going to nitpick a shutout (so far) in which the defense has spent the entire game on the field.



That's because they cannot tackle. Pathetic defense

If we don't sustain drives and get some points on the board we're going to be in trouble as AF wears down our D on the ground.

This is my fear. Got to get off the field on defense and possess the ball some on offense.

They go for it on fourth and 2, not doubting for a second that they will get it.

Air Force is definitely scrappy. Baylor getting great tackling practice tonight.

One thing we should have learned from experience against service academies is they aren't going to beat themselves. You've got to make plays to beat them.

We're not making plays tonight.

Should have 17. Can't get out of there own way. The o line is also still bad. No game pressure on a triple option team is recipe for disaster. Defense might gas

I hope the liberals are happy with this football team and the post-Briles era

Horrid pursuit, gap control, and fundamentals.

We're stopping the fullback dive. But that's about it. If this was a single-option offense, we'd be doing OK.

Clearly he had athletes who succeeded based on their ability, not his. In the current setting there is neither.

One team has more talented players who assume they will win. The other has average players who are well coached and uber-disciplined and have the hunger and heart to win.

I remember those posts this week that told me we would have no trouble with Air Force because after all they struggled to beat Merrimack and lost to a really bad San Jose St team.

Going toe to toe with AFs worst team in a decade….

We could hire a coach from the YMCA and pay NIL from the savings paid to Rhoades/Aranda and have a better competitive product.
