There's that's Sawyer pocket awareness. It's 4th down… throw the ball into the EZ dude

This is ending just like I thought. Mercifully we don't have to watch this agony again in a meaningless bowl game. Next year is going to be worse. Way disappointed...thanks for the question

Would've been nice to have had Trigg as an option down there

That play was pretty much descriptive of this season. Fitting that it was on the final offensive play of the year and what should have been Dave Aranda's last day as head coach at Baylor. But we get 1 more year!

That was two pretty blatant pass interferences a second ago

Refs cost us the game.

This game is the perfect summary of Sawyer's tenure and Dave as a coach.

And this is an argument for those who feel Aranda should not be retained.

2 straight PI's and you aren't screaming at the refs at the top of your lungs?

If you aren't gonna fight for your Team when it truly matters, then perhaps you shouldn't be the head coach.

I'm sure Linda thought this was a Gosh Darn good game. A great display of person over player that represented Baylor and its mission so very well.
IowaBear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
No the incompetence of this team cost us the game.
Adriacus Peratuun

We F'in can't count…….how do you get outnumbered on that play?
IowaBear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Yeah Dave knows he's coming back… zero ****ing emotion. None. I'm starting to think he simply doesn't give a single ****

Fire Dave for real. This team sucks. We've lost to so many trash teams it's insane. The guy would go winless in the old big 12

I will miss you in 2027..

He doesn't want to lose, but he doesn't hate losing either.

That's the only way to explain it as far as I can see.

Fritz in year 2 has already blown past Aranda in year 6.

Please let there be a surprise Aranda firing on Dec 1.

All I'm waiting for is for Aranda to be shown the door.
IowaBear

These aren't trash teams. Stop exaggerating. And yes Dave blows ass
Adriacus Peratuun

Only Baylor would not have the U-Haul ready and packed.
Bandito

At least Dave didn't yuck it up with the opponent coach.

The guys are angry
They're gutted
They didn't execute what I showed them on defense
I ran the same D all day
I'm so proud of these guys

Last drive sums up season.

Knew they were running 3 straight and still couldn't stop

Three easy victories pretty much everyone in here chalked up in August as we were licking our wounds after the Auburn loss: Cincinnati, Arizona and Houston.

Doesn't count if you don't throw in the:

Those who paid attention knew those weren't easy wins. Nothing is ever easy under Dave
