I hate how these announcers are openly cheering for La Tech

Probably was OOB, but not sure it can be proven from the replay.

what happened to the WR who dropped the TD pass against auburn who wears the guardian helmet?
Big12Fan2024 said:
We better be really good at slinging it in Big 12 play because we have a very limited rushing attack. Yes, these are predictable runs here and that's part of the explanation but we have no gamebreaking risk on that list of RBs.
Dia del DougO said:
Not really inspired by the second half thus far.

I haven't kept up with everything. What happened to the transfer receiver from CU who was gonna be a huge downfield threat? Is he injured? Maybe he's playing and I just haven't noticed him.

Hopefully Lagway will be healthy enough to contribute to the run game. Our base run game isn't going to work in the Big 12 without the threat of the QB run.

In almost every way: taking their side in 50-50 calls, constantly talking about what they need to do to win, etc.
It's probably mostly my baylor fandom but they don't seem as balanced as I'm used to seeing. Even RGIII when he called out games was more balanced.

He's going to get injured very quickly if that's what we have to resort to

Are we beating the spread yet?

I've been saying it for 2 years that Spav is Not a good OC.
How can Spav and Spectrum Dave look at this run game week after week, and Never make changes to a more dynamic run game.
Baylor will go 5-7 max, and maybe even 4-8.
Big12Fan2024 said:
Our D needs a nice field long drive from the offense on this series. They've been out there way too much in the 2nd half.

Not anymore...and I'm not sure we are gonna score again
historian said:
Never should have allowed that score
