Good job by the defense to hold them to three. That could be important with what we've done offensively so far.

We need to get to halftime and regroup. If we don't score here and/or out of halftime, we're going to be in a dogfight all night.


Your statement would be correct if we were playing competitive football against a Big12 team or better.

Looking at your statement from the outside is absolutely f'n hilarious.

I hate playing service academies because they put so much pressure on you to execute every possession.

Sawyer has played a really good game so far, and we have three points. It's infuriating.

What's sad is Sawyer is setting this offense up for success

Yep.... this game would look very different without dumb turnovers

We can maybe survive it against AF… But not in conference play

They never showed a replay of the fumble in the stadium

1) how is this where we are in year 5?
2) how did they not name sawyer the starter to begin season?

3 trips inside their 30… zero points. We're going to lose this game. The silver living is dip**** Dave will be gone

It looked like targeting from where I am which is far away I admit.

At this point, just win. I don't care about style points anymore. Just get out of this one with a win.

Wake me up when this team can get out of its own way. Should be 17-3. Sawer starting to play really well too.

Yes, sawyer has looked great. Seems to like the tempo

If we're counting on beating a service academy by hoping they make mistakes, good freakin luck.

I do… there was zero reason to not dominant this team zero… but here we are another dog fight against a bad team

Turnovers aside, Baylor has 14 yards rushing, averaging 1.8 yards per carry.

There's your bigger problem right there.

AF has zero yards passing. They don't need it. Great game plan for them, Baylor just has to stop their run and get their own running game going to some degree.

Maybe by the middle of November - but there's gonna be a heck of a lot more losses between now and then. Mack doesn't have the stones to fire him any sooner.

I don't disagree with you, but this team hasn't proven it can dominate anyone. If we can learn to win close games, there will be plenty of opportunities in the Big 12 this season.

And I'd always rather win than lose. Just find a way to win. We can gripe about how ugly it was later.

I see their backs know how to hang on to the ball.

At least the offense will be well - rested for the second half

I like that we're being aggressive with our timeouts. We need to try to score before half.

Let's get some points here and then get it again to start 2nd half

Need to put 3 on the board here.

I think Sawyer is obviously the better quarterback. But I'm not sure this will necessarily lead to more victories.
