Shouldn't even be in this situation. Unacceptable.


Cut the unacceptable crap. BU won and is 7-4. There is another team out there. Some of you guys act like BU has control over everything. Houston made some nice plays, give em credit. Sick of the negative bs...
That's the worst part about these message boards. No one thinks the other team is capable of playing well.

1. beat Kansas

#2 is extremely unlikely and will require a whole lot of luck but it is possible.

Both are true. Robertson should have played better.

It is possible until it is not. Beat KU. Control what we can control. After that it is up to the football gods.

#12 Boise St is about to survive an ugly 17-13 win over 2-8 Wyoming.

Ugly wins happen....even to good teams.

I agree. But he did throw for 2 TDs. He had a bad game because of the turnovers but not an atrocious one.

We better step it up for the clown birds next week or they will drill us.

He stopped being a running threat the last couple games. Not sure why.

Their momentum is much better than our momentum right now. But their defense is not as good as Houston's IMO.

i think coaches want to keep him uninjured, but still it was a big part of his game

Tough call for me. Our momentum over a 5 game period is great. When looked at from one subpar game (still a win) then perhaps not. But the momentum from 5 wins in a row, is, to me a big deal.

That will be a completely different matchup.

Football is about matchups.

I agree we'll have to play well to win that one because Kansas is a good team playing really well. But I think that game will look completely different than this one. Our offense will look more like itself in that one. Unfortunately, so will our defense.

Another way to look at it, we can play like crap for about half the game, but still win it. Been a while since that happened

Dave hasn't progressed. Absolutely fire able decision making.
You're funny dude.


Obviously it shouldn't happen. But this was a regression, need to see something for KU. The scared football came back. Fortunately Houston has no offensive talent

We lost those games last year, to Houston, to West Virginia, to Utah. And this year to Colorado and BYU. This is what a turnaround looks like: lose close, win close, win convincingly.

Was at the game. Ugly but we were clearly the better team. 7-4. I'll take it.

I felt sorry for the Baylor band and those sitting in that area by the scoreboard/PA speakers. That was the loudest stadium PA I can remember in a while and we were on the opposite 35 - 40 yard line from the band.

Other than that, enjoyed another win by the Bears!

At the end of the day, it was a great one!

I picked on Aranda earlier in the year, and I still think deservedly so, but he has come back with a vengeance, just to make me eat crow. I can live with that...

As I'm sitting here watching Pacific time zone games it just dawned on me that it's really gonna suck in future seasons against AZ, AZST, UTAH for night games at their place. I recall in 2022 against BYU it took everything I had to stay awake and that was only a 9 pm kick. Yes I'm old.

That was a gutsy win. Glad to see the defense step up and help carry us when the offense gets shut down. Finding ways to win. Sic 'Em!

That was an ugly game but it's a dub.

Gotta admit going into the season I thought 6-6 was the absolute ceiling and a long shot at best and after the first half of the season I was convinced we we weren't going to get to 4-8. What an unexpected turnaround!

Cool post. Way to call it on both sides. We need more of that!

1. Don't know why Fritz didn't use any of his 3 timeouts at the end of the 2nd quarter. Let 2 minutes burn off when we had 1st and goal.

2. Our kicker came up huge this game. Houston might have won without Shankins.

3. Houston's defense was good. They never got tired even after repeatedly getting run blocked and dealing with our RB's.
