Matt Rhule Quote of the Week...

“I think that we look like a team that's not going to beat ourselves, but we have to actually go out there and do it. And I think the biggest thing is just maturity. You know, when I stand up in front of the team and talk and when guys go in their position rooms and talk, you have a bunch of veteran players that are bought into not just what we're doing but how we're doing it and that that's important to me.”


Baylor’s Key Players

Quarterback #12 Charlie Brewer

The junior quarterback gets his chance to rack up the stats that he was not able to early last season and he will not have to look over his shoulder at Jalan McClendon this year. Time to start his junior year on the right foot.

Right guard #74 Prince Pines

Pines was one the more exciting commits in the loaded 2018 offensive line class. He came into Baylor at 6-4, 354 pounds but has gotten himself in better shape since arriving at Baylor and is now down to 339 pounds. 

Defensive End #9 James Lockhart

The 6-2, 263-pound senior should be absolutely dominant against Stephen F. Austin and he is a guy everyone should be focused on. There is no one for the Lumberjacks that should be able to consistently block him so the expectation is for him to live in the backfield, hurry the quarterback, and get a couple tackles for loss.

Safety #1 Grayland Arnold

The redshirt junior sat out the majority of last season in order to preserve an extra season at Baylor. This off-season has been absolutely huge for him and he has taken the necessary steps to become a massive contributor in the Bears secondary. 


Stephen F. Austin Key Players

Quarterbacks #2 Trae Self | #12 Cam Arnold — The quarterback battle is still ongoing and Baylor will probably see both guys but Trae Self will most likely get the start.

Running back #21 Da’Leon Ward — The Texas Tech transfer should add some pop to the Lumberjacks rushing attack. 

Wide receiver #8 Tamrick Pace — Pace is the top returning wide receiver for the Lumberjacks. 

Linebacker #7 Quin Jones — The 6-0, 232-pound linebacker started every game a season ago for Stephen F. Austin. 

Kicker #36 Storm Ruiz — The preseason All-Southland Conference First Team selection had a great season a year ago and will be a weapon for the Lumberjacks all season long.

I'm hoping we see the offense move through SFA like a hot knife through butter, and then at least a quarter of Gerry Bohanon.

The main benefit of playing a game against an FCs team is to get the backups some playing time and keep the starters healthy.

Video quality of the ESPN+ broadcast is better than I thought.

ESPN needs to learn from CBS SEC telecasts, which makes you feel like you are sitting in the middle of the crowd.

Partial block punt. Drive for TD.

Good start.

Very crisp looking opening drive. Nice.

I agree, it sounds weird. Would like to hear the crowd.

Love Ruhle. He looks like he just left his dental practice to coach his son's Pop Warner team. He seems to be the kind of guy that could care less about his appearance.

New for this year:

The red shirted tv timeout guy now has a big countdown clock during timeouts (kinda like the inbetween inning clock in MLB)

Totally agree. It almost feels like the announcers are 1,000 miles away and doing the game using a remote video.

Good grief. Lynch just blew the left tackle 10 yards backwards!

This is looking like 2014 Baylor vs SMU. May be a shutout.

Big Clay hit, big Lynch penetration, blocked punt, good first TD. This will be fun.

The field looks slippery.. I've seen lots of those rubber fillings flying around on every play.

My picture keeps moving from crisp to pixilated

Is it just me? I just ran a Ookla speed test and things seem fine with my internet speed

Am I the only one who thinks this looks like high school Brewer out there? I know it's only SFA, but this is what he did every game at Lake Travis. Looks really comfortable and a gamer.

Looking good so far.

Espn+ unwatchable on chrome for some reason, switched to Firefox and quite nice.

Agree about the crowd noise, could have more in the mix.
