Snaxx has never played a bowl game at Baylor. He's 0 for 2 now in making it to the end of our season.

Dave does seem consistent with holding his players accountable. We saw him sit several players in the BYU game for discipline reasons.

Should be a good thing in the long run.

If we lose it, it's because of the uniforms

6'7" is a bit of a mismatch down there.

I'm guessing Powledge is a great recruiter.

Okay, molasses start (usual) or a Football start on offense? LSU marched right on down. Things usual so far.

Yeah, we've got to find a way to get some pressure on him. We can't cover we'll enough to let him pass out of a clean pocket.

We stuffed the run, which is good to see. But we've got to do a better job of getting off the field on third and fourth down.

Aranda's defense is so bad. Or should we blame it on Powledge
