Pre-Game Quotes


Jim Grobe...
"In this case I know we’ve had some barn burners games with those guys. That’s what fuels rivalries is when you have great competitive games. Sometimes you have rivalries, but they are one-sided. Certainly in this series, you have two teams that both expect to win every time they play. So that makes it a little more exciting."

Jordan Feuerbacher...
“I don’t think we have any concern about how we’ll bounce back. We were talking after the game and in meetings yesterday - we’re still in the driver’s seat for this thing. We still have a lot of football to play.”

Bennett playing wayyyy to soft on blitzing. Hill too comfy in the pocket. Learned nothing from the Tech vs TCU game IMO

More upset with the defense. 31 points against a bad offense due to not scheming them right isn't ok.

Offense is up against a good defense with young WR except for KD who is inconsistent.

Often times we wear defenses down in the second half. I hope that happens today. I wouldn't be shocked if it's a wild close finish.

Looks like we have gone from a bend don't break defense to a break don't bend defense.

Sorry about all the negativity I brought to this thread. It's totally my fault Baylor got run out of the building by 40 points against a hilariously average TCU team.

Goldmind...I hope to have the pleasure of meeting you one day. You are always so positive no matter what is going on. I come here to read your posts. That was a miserable loss but I'm proud of this team for continuing on with all they have been through.

Knock off the personal attacks. It's s football game. Insulting others isn't going to get the team to score more points.

TCU 120, Baylor 83-the combined scores of their last 2 football meetings at McLane Stadium. Very sad from the Baylor perspective.
