The No. 8-ranked Baylor Bears (5-0) will play their Homecoming matchup against the Kansas Jayhawks (1-4) on Saturday afternoon at 2:30 p.m. CT at McLane Stadium.

GAME QUOTES

Jim Grobe on KU's defense...
“I like the way their defense chases the football. They fly around and get a lot of people to the ball. They play really, really hard defensively. As an older football coach, you know, the one thing you like is that when you watch games is to watch the teams that play with a lot of energy and enthusiasm and that's what I see from them on both sides of the ball. They are very aggressive. I like to Blitz and bring pressure and and mixed things up so I like their scheme. They're fundamentally coach really well, you can tell that there is a very fundamentally sound defense."

Seth Russell on improvements he has seen in Kansas...
“They are definitely a different ball team than last year, for sure. On film they fly around and do a lot of good things on defense. We just have to focus on what we do, play Baylor football. The coaches are going to have a good scheme going into it, and as long as we execute we will be OK.”

  • The Bears have won 6-straight dating back to last year’s bowl - tops in Big 12 & tied for 7th in FBS.

In some circles it's actually known as "The Baylor penalty."

In this game weve seen an 80 yard punt and a punt by the QB get downed at the 1.

Another 60ish yard punt. Their punter may have averaged close to 60 today.

Schreppfer is running crazy hard. Never heard of him before.

As I say that he fumbles.

I'm loving Johnston for that pick, but I'm really disappointed on Lenoy Jones effort downfield. He chooses to run and block somebody and that's 6.

On one hand I'm glad it wasn't because i have the under, but jeez.

Hate "give up" calls like that one, regardless of score.

A minor gripe in the grand scheme though ...

I saw it exactly opposite.....he didn't have an angle on anyone, so hits somebody there's gonna be a flag. I was telling myself "good job, Lenoy".

But great minds can differ, so....

I feel like it is the job of the refs to let games like this end. Just keep the clock rolling.

I don't participate in the game thread during the game so sorry IAP but does anyone else think Seth is still just a tad off kilter? Some of his throws sometimes seem a mite off line.

The return guy for Kansas was originally an Ag commit, really highly rated. I got blasted for saying he wouldn't qualify. He didn't.
He did. He transferred from A&M.
