Quite frankly?? Anyone who can hang onto the ball at this point

Sawyer looks very uneasy in the pocket...


Even worse when flushed out

ASU DBs must have our WRs draped. Sawyer can't find anyone downfield to even throw to.

They're covering our receivers well. We can't get any separation.

Had plenty of time to tuck and run make it 3rd and 5, at least.

Spavital knows that running the ball is allowed, right?

After waiting all week for this game to get here… this has been a damn frustrating watch.

Offense is so clunky tonight. Can not find a rhythm.

when we run the same route over and over and over again on 3rd down, it gets easier to defend...

We've put way too much pressure on our defense tonight.

The ability to not present any threat whatsoever of Sawyer taking off and running is hurting his passing. They're just floating a LB back and double covering receivers since they aren't concerned with the run threat. I hope if it's an injury it isn't a season long injury.

Great job O.

If Sawyer isn't going to run Baylor isn't winning tonight. He had all day on that 2nd down and an easy 5 if he takes it.

Seeing defensive improvement tonight, they're not where I'd like to see them but they are better


The defense has hands-down done their job. I'm not sure if they can continue to hold up... but they have more than done their part tonight.

ASU is fixin' to go deep. They have lulled the D to sleep.

We really need a turnover

Offense has been out of Sync for 5 quarters straight. This right now isn't a good offense

I'll say it again. This game is winnable.

It's a 3 pt game in Q3…

When Aranda was talking up Louis a few weeks ago figured it was nonsense. Dude can't seem to evaluate talent

I called that schiff.

The game was at Mizzou and KU led in the 4th quarter. Very competitive game. We'll see how they both finish but KU was around 9 pre-season Big 12 and Mizzou was around 11.

Everytime I speak poorly of this team they redeem themselves. Okay, here goes nothing. We suck.

good call...and of course DB was beat immediately and had no other choice but to commit PI

This feels like a really big defensive possession. A touchdown puts us in a really bad spot.

It's not…and that's supposed to be our calling card. We look like a meh midpack B12 team so far.
IowaBear

Defense is gonna give up 7 soon. And it's impossible to be mad at them. This is solely on the offense.
Bear in AL
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Okay, I change my mind. This game is NOT winnable.
So much promise before the season started.

Year after year, Aranda puts crap on the field- how much longer?
IowaBear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
In fairness wasn't that known prior to kickoff? Dave's best team ever is a middle of the pack B12 team

this is going to take a turnover...
