Baylor Senior QB Seth Russell...
“I’m excited for this week for sure. Regrouping is just kind of what we do. When you come out with a bad week you have to be able to sit back down and get back to basics, and I feel like the coaches said some really good things yesterday when we were watching film. We have to get back to what we do.”
SicEm365
Baylor Senior CB Ryan Reid...
“Senior leadership, coaching staff; we just have to remind everybody and keep everybody busy with football. We can’t keep everybody off of social media, but we can try to get them to not focus on everything that’s going on with social media.”

Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365
Baylor Senior LB Aiavion Edwards...
“They have a great running game, and Baker Mayfield has done a great job this season. That’s going to be a big challenge for us as a defense and as a team.”
“We have to focus on the basics. We have to work on tackling this week. The tackles that we missed went into bigger plays down the line, so we have to focus more on execution.”

So far today the announcer has said:

1. All of Mayfield's incompletions were throws he really didn't mean to make incomplete.
2. How amazing of a talent Mixon is.
3. That Oklahoma has already won the Big 12.

Feel free to tweet this punk. Internet tough guys are one thing and I'm fine w/ people talking bad about Baylor, but going after Seth and saying they are glad he got hurt is absolutely pathetic.

Bears weren't going to win this after that last FG drive of 7 minutes. I like what I see from Zach. Encouraging for the remaining games. Looks pretty accurate and if they trust him with a lot of RPO's he could make life tough for Snyder's guys

The deep ball may be back in Waco.

Tough loss but the effort was there today. Penalties and turnovers were too great to overcome.

Sometimes life isn't fair.

The missionary breaks his neck and leg and is done for the season.

The g/f beater who punches her face gets to continue to run for touchdowns w/ OU.
But one of these days, both of these guys will face their maker & I would certainly want to be in Seth's shoes!

Manalive137 made a post and then edited to delete apparently, about the camera crew showing KB's signals on the sidelines.

It's damned true. The first series the camera stayed on him for several seconds in a closer up showing his lips moving and the entire signal. Someone must have alerted the staff because KB had an assistant coach stand in front of him every time they showed him after, obstructing the camera's view of his signal.

Lincoln Riley though was always just kinda chilling on his close ups, having already called the play off camera.

Tin foil hats or whatever, but nothing should shock any of us this season anymore.

Didn't want to be the conspiracy theorist bc I honestly don't care. Just thought it was unusual how many times I saw KB's play calls sitting on my couch at home.

Despite the loss, Baylor has won 3 of the last 6 football meetings with Oklahoma.
