No. 13 Baylor (7-2) will host No. 8 Oklahoma (9-0) at McLane Stadium on Saturday afternoon. 


Quote of the week...

Dave Aranda: “The (Oklahoma) quarterback has injected their offense with some firepower. They have always done a good job with their run game. It is always attached to our RPO's. We struggled with our RPO's just this past week. Caleb's ability to hit receivers in stride with tight coverage, I think stands out, I think the skill on the perimeter stands out. Oklahoma does a nice job of bait and switch. Of really setting up a run, getting the look they want, and then taking advantage of it with a designed RPO. They've been able to jump ahead on folks through that progression, and it's going to be for us to disrupt it.”


Craig Smoak’s Players to Watch 

Oklahoma — Quaterback Caleb Williams

The former 5-star and #2 QB recruit in the country last season, is already living up to his billing as the Sooners' #1 QB for the foreseeable future. Since bursting onto the scene against Texas and dethroning Spencer Rattler in the process, Williams has become a true dual-threat superstar in the making. His affinity for timely, impactful rushing scores has prevented OU from suffering losses to Texas and Kansas alone. Not to mention his Mahomes/Manziel-ish ability to make something out of nothing. He's not really Superman, but that is his actual nickname. 

Baylor — Entire Defense 

There's a sizable list of reasons why the Bears struggled so mightily last week against TCU, but now an even more significant challenge is in store with Lincoln Riley's offense. Pass rush, job assignment, communication, focus. Everything will matter and needs to improve for this defense to help play spoiler this weekend. But, especially in light of last week, I'd expect the Bears' defense to be ready for the challenge.

Lololololol, kicks the field goal.

Entitled Riley can't believe the refs didn't give him the win. Acted like such an entitled child. Dirtiest program in the B12 gets curb stomped.

Bug 12 will find a way to make baylor forfeit and end the baylor line and keep our money forever


I think we called time out to avoid a penalty, didn't we?


No. Tiebreaker issues.

To shove it in Lincoln Riley, espn, big 12 and college football's face

Or to have the most points for a tie breaker

IMO the FG at the end was recognition of the One True Champion debacle in '13. BU is fed up with getting the shaft in FB, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Love me some Aranda, but I ain't fully buying the sole reason for the FG was for a tiebreaker. If that were the case, we wouldn't have knelt on the snap 3 times. Instead, we would have tried to score a TD and add even more points for a tiebreaker.

No, part of that FG was a FU to Riley and OU.

OU baciare il mio sedere verde e oro. Avrei voluto infilargli in bocca una ciotola di cannella alla fine e guardare cosa succede dopo. Portate l'ambulanza!

Translation: OU can kiss my green and gold butt. At the end I would have like to shove a bowl of cinnamon in his pie hole and call the ambulance!

Stoops saying Riley upset at end due to coaches and player safety. Um yeah, but also because our defense defeated you Big Time!

Probably, but how many times have you ever seen a college team with a guaranteed win use the tiebreaker. It had to be pointed out to him in the last 4-5 minutes bc letting it go down to :01 is pretty dicey.

That is so awesome! Love it. My first exposure to Italian smack talk since I was in Italy and a grandmother with a bambino in her arms as I knocked in the wrong door in Roma

Riley was mad because Baylor wasn't given a 15 yard penalty for rushing the field, also said fg was unsportsmanlike.

I think Riley calling us unsportsmanlike is a compliment.

He's trying to deflect like Patterson. Had ou not tried Tom score that last TD we'd have just taken a knee

I am up for burning every single bridge between us and Oklahoma and Texas before they leave

It was unsportsmanlike for them to duck out and head for the SEC leaving the rest of us behind. Screw Lincoln.
