Baylor Senior QB Seth Russell...
“I’m excited for this week for sure. Regrouping is just kind of what we do. When you come out with a bad week you have to be able to sit back down and get back to basics, and I feel like the coaches said some really good things yesterday when we were watching film. We have to get back to what we do.”

Baylor Senior CB Ryan Reid...
“Senior leadership, coaching staff; we just have to remind everybody and keep everybody busy with football. We can’t keep everybody off of social media, but we can try to get them to not focus on everything that’s going on with social media.”


Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365
Baylor Senior LB Aiavion Edwards...
“They have a great running game, and Baker Mayfield has done a great job this season. That’s going to be a big challenge for us as a defense and as a team.”
“We have to focus on the basics. We have to work on tackling this week. The tackles that we missed went into bigger plays down the line, so we have to focus more on execution.”

Bold prediction: Baylor will have possibly the worst offense of the Big 12 the rest of the season.

Not suprised....dude missed 2 simple tackles (had armed secured on reciever as the catch was made) against UTs receivers that resulted in huge play right over the middle. If UT receivers can shuck him, Dede will make him look silly

They'll show Stoops talking with soldiers but won't ever bring up how scummy of a coach he is.

Hasty is not a between the tackles guy. Line him up in the slot, have him run side to side, throw it to him out of the backfield. Something else.

Should have been an easy throw by Seth.

Penalty anyway, so doesn't matter.

Oklahoma did well taking their time on substitutions last year. Looks like they'll do the same this year.
