Led by freshman quarterback Zach Smith, the Baylor Bears (6-4) look to get back on track versus the Texas Tech Red Raiders (4-7) at AT&T Stadium in Arlington on Friday evening at 5 p.m. CT.

Aiavion Edwards...
Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365
“We try to keep everybody positive. It’s something that we have to do, and we have to keep pushing forward so that we can get back on track.”

“The things that go wrong are definitely correctable. It isn’t that we aren’t giving the effort. It’s just a missed assignment.”

“We’ve missed a lot of tackles. We’ve been in position a lot of the time and we haven’t made the play. We have to get off the field when we have the opportunity.”

Patrick Levels...
Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365
“We definitely plan to get back on track. We’re going to go out there and play as hard as we can, and we’re going to figure out a way to get the win.”

“It starts at practice. You have to be all-out at practice, and what you do there will transfer to the game. We have to continue to practice hard and be more enthusiastic so that we can continue to keep the ball rolling.”



Zach Smith...
Elizabeth Sherman, SicEm365
“I’m a leader and I’m a competitor and I want to go out there and win every time. When you don’t do that and you fail, it’s tough, It’s frustrating, but you have to shake it off, move to the next game and try to go get a win.”

“It’s pretty frustrating, but being a leader, you have to shake it off and tell everybody to shake it off and clear it and just stay positive because the game is still going.”



Kyle Fuller...
SicEm365
“I think he did great for the situation that he was put in. We didn’t help that much as an offensive line. We had quite a few errors going on. The fact of the matter was he was calm the whole time. That’s one of the things that can get to a younger player. You can get hit once and the entire game is a struggle for him. I think that his calmness and his trust in us was definitely something that was really good about his performance that day. I’m sure that going forward he is going to do better.”

How obvious is our play calling in these situations. Up the middle 99% of the time. I've tried to give KB the benefit of the doubt but a 5th grade Pee Wee coach could predict his plays right now. Embarrassing

Ummm...Art did the same thing. That is the only call in the Briles playback for the goalline.

He did the same thing when we had great OLines but he occasionally mixed it up.

KB has been doing this all year and it hasn't been working A LOT. Not just goal line but 3rd or 4th and short. Why keep trying something when it doesn't work. Even Briles would have changed this up.

Greg Roberts, you've gotta be kidding me.

Greg Roberts is horrible. There are HS D-ends who can start over him.

Agreed. I've seen nothing that tells me he'd see any action on any other team in our conference and that's saying something.

However there are none at BU who can...and that's the saddest part of the story.

The biggest issue the new coach will face is getting talent and depth along both lines.
