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.”

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.”

Oh so both our teams got up in each others faces in pre game. What does Kirk Herbstreit say? Sarcastically "Baylor's in another fight, Ayyy!" to which they all laugh.

OU just broke our spirit. If it wasn't broken already. Hope these kids have something left.

It's weird like, I'm not a violent guy, but no matter who they're playing, I always wish Baker Mayfield would get his neck snapped.

I really don't like our blitzes. We don't seem to get to the QB and frequently get burned.

3 or 4 great plays against good defense that drive. Going to be a long day of they keep doing that. Missed offensive pi on 1st 3rd down conversion.

We should really consider committing penalties on 3rd and long until it's 3rd and <5.
