Not that it's going to make any difference anyway, but there were two holds on that play, and the other one was close to the line of scrimmage

i swear there was a pre-game graphic that monaray baldwin was going to be a difference maker and i dont remember his name being called once today. not once.

Should have just declined the penalty and gotten the ball back.

Aranda needs to go shopping for a new OC after this game. Grimes will sink him if he doesn't make a change. I'm sure Grimes can be serviceable somewhere else, but not here.



I think he already has sunk him. He needed to make a change after last season.

Robertson can't throw over the middle. That's Monaray's bread and butter.

Yeah. I posted in first quarter where was he.

D to my surprise actually played an outstanding game. Our offense totally ended up losing this game led by Sawyer Robertson. We are so screwed that at QB.

A lot of Baylor fans just breathed a sigh of relief that they scored the TD there.

I can't believe they scored TD - - - unless DA planned it so we get the ball back and score

last week was a whole lot more painful

I'm a whole lot more optimistic now than I was last week. We all should be. At least we had some things working well; we know our guys can do some good things.

We really aren't stupid enough to let a guy score a TD...with 18 seconds left -- are we?
Jack Bauer

20 points and we gave Utah the ball 2x on our side.

How do you declare a moral victory while losing to a team without it's starting QB, two running backs and away from home. Meanwhile what is this, loss number 6 in a row at home.

No halftime adjustments. None. Defense played ok but nothing to write home about. We are in trouble, again.

How can any recruit in the nation watch Jeff Grimes's offense and think "Yeah I like that style. I want to go play for him."

Once they got the first, it didn't matter. It was either that or give up a walk-off field goal.

It's a tough loss but in my opinion, it wasn't coaching this week.

Player execution on offense is the cause. Defense balled out and the offense couldn't finish…it's a young team and the O-Line needs time to develop + Sawyer. Not a bad showing against a quality opponent, the staff did better responding to this game. Some things just take time to develop & this is a young team.

Some silver linings this week in the loss. Still hurts.

That was a great play. Now Sawyer needs to do another.

Baylor fans are so fickle!
Which fan bases are okay with 0-2 and the way we have played last week and in the second half today?

we've played 1 good half out of 4.
The defense was great all game. They got worn down by being on the field so much in the second half. That happens when you can't get first downs.


Christ!!! C'mon! A Texas team more accustomed to Texas heat got beat and worn down by a UTAH team that had NO realistic way to prepare for. Just a better, more gritty, determined team. BU is just not good.

I was encouraged by our defense today for sure. I think it helped that Utah started the wrong quarterback.
