the calls are individual calls - never looks like he's thinking through the entire 4 downs. all facets of the game are just brain dead when it comes to coaching

Our smallest player relied on to block for our biggest player. Brilliant

Looking for another Hb draw on this 3rd down play or last one worked for the first time all season don't be surprised if they run it again

What's with all this lateral **** in the passing game the last few weeks? We're trying fool disciplined defenses. That doesn't work.

Trust your athletes and let them make plays.

I'm seeing unusually high care factor so far in this game. I believe the team sang a round of Pass It On in that last huddle.

Screens won't work without downfield throws…..ever. The downfield threat is what makes screens a viable play.

Death, Taxes, Baylor playing for 4th down

throwing the ball to trigger two yards behind the line of scrimmage is brain dead. he's bigger and stronger than everyone. but plays like that get him blown up especially with a receiving core that cannot block for their lives.

Well that was a stupid call!

Thank God we have a Heisman quality QB.

Of course we throw an INT.

why not take the easy 3 and make it a 1pt game with almost the entire 4th quarter to play? Baby Yoda pray tell?

that's my point - you call plays two and three steps ahead. but nothing is complimentary with spav. it's like he looks at what's in front of him every single time instead of what play calls will compliment each other and get baylor the first down with the best advantage.

God forbid we make it a 21-20 game.

On the bright side, we only have to watch this for 13 more games + 1 quarter.

3 points would have been nice

The defense has been doing their part

Kick the ****ing field goal, you dip****s.

Playing for a do-or-die fourth down when you have a chance to keep this a one-score game throughout is idiotic. You have a whole quarter left to play.

Why does it seem we always try to throw for a TD instead of a short pass for a first down when it's 4th and not goal?
IowaBear

It never ****ing fails. The moment Baylor sees a 3rd 7 in opponents territory they're running the ball.
AZ will march down the field here and nail the coffin

Cut it to 1, and even if you give up a TD, you can tie with a TD and 2pt conversion

This is turning out like the most Baylor game of the year.

That was a TD. I was wondering why nobody was reviewing it.

Should there really be a wheel chair there just outside the end zone boundary?

He didn't have control until he was out of bounds in my highly biased view
