Anyone watching the KSU/Baylor game on Fox?

[aurorasooner]

6:54 left in the 3rd and KSU just scored to pull to within 2. Going for 2 to try and tie it. They just missed the 2 point, so it's 21 to 19 Baylor.

[SoonerShay]

They got the ball back on a crazy strip fumble play. Bryce Petty is no RG3 when running with the ball. Stopping Baylors explosive plays and keeping them off the field seems to be working. KSU has a joke of an offense too, yet Baylor is having trouble stopping them consistently.

Baylor has never been the hunted

[bluedogok]

The Baylor offense is predicated on the over the top homerun ball, if you can limit their explosive plays for the most part you have a chance. On defense they are average, the ball control offense that KSU is running is probably the best type of offense (and defense) you can have.

[SoonerShay]

KSU just went on top 25 to 21 in the 3rd quarter, but they keep missing the 2 point conversions.

[aurorasooner]

Well Snyder has proven over and over he's strictly a football coach and not a home decorator.
Not sure KSU can win it, but at least he's keeping it close and giving them a chance.

[bluedogok]

You can't let their receivers have a free release off the line, every big play they have had is the result of a free release and the speed of the receiver blowing past the corner.

[aurorasooner]

geez, how in the frick do other teams get receivers wide-open on the deep ball by play design and it seems we can't even get any separation from our WRs against an average secondary at all?
Even B. Bell or TK could've completed that.

[SOONER44EVER]

KSU is calling running plays for a running QB. How weird.

[bluedogok]

Briles has recruited a ton of speed receivers on the edges, he is probably the best recruiter in Texas right now considering where he is at. He has always had the connections from his time at Stephenville and didn't **** off the rest of the coaches in the state like Todd Dodge did when he was at Southlake Carroll.

We'll if Derp could complete the long ball against our secondary as he showed today, then we'd better lube up and get ready for an azz-raping in Waco. I still can't believe how we sometimes make average at best QBs look like the 2nd coming of Joe Nameth.

[bluedogok]

I don't think it is a fair comparison, UT wasn't known for an over the top throw but in most cases they went for that when we started packing the box expecting the run. I think you scheme differently against Baylor knowing that is the bulk of their offense.

[Curly Bill]

Even though Briles had some awesome teams at Stephenville I think he was more a "regular guy" than Dodge seemed to be. I know for a fact Briles likes him a Coors Light or several, or at least he used to.

Instead of worrying about Saban ending up at Texas, I'd be more concerned about Briles going there.

[SOONER44EVER]

In case you guys haven't noticed, Bill Snyder can flat out coach.

[Curly Bill]

Yup. Does more with less.

[SoonerShay]

Yeah that is why on 4th and 2 at home he played not to win. That stupid field goal attempt was a mistake, they were gashing Baylor with the run. And he didn't think they could get 2 measly yards? That was weak Snyder.

Then that last drive they start passing the ball?! Awful! Josh must of started calling plays for them.

[bluedogok]

I think that is one of the reasons why high school coaches like and respect him, Dodge was just an *** to everyone. I just get the feeling that Briles doesn't go to Texas, although I am sure they make a back channel run at him. Baylor can pay him about anything that Texas will pay him because unless Saban is walking through the door I don't think they are going to $6,000,000. He has built a team there at a school with realistic expectations, with a new stadium and evidently gets along with Drayton McLane pretty well. Texas is a structural mess between Red and Joe, the presidents and AD offices. He doesn't seem like the type of guy to deal with all the politics and glad handing that Mack and Darrel were so good at and at UT that is more of the job than coaching. There is a whole lot more of that at UT than there is at Baylor.

I do think Knight might be a better matchup against Baylor based on what Sams has been doing with his legs.

A 41 yarder is not a given in college, he should have gone on 4th down.

[SoonerShay]

Exactly, they only needed 2 yards and have over 330 in this game. Why in the world did they decide to kick a long field goal?

[OU_Sooners75]

Baylor isn't very good either.

Apparently the Big 12 does suck!

First time Baylor left the state of Texas to play this year, pathetic. That rush defense looks marshmallow soft and Baylor fans have turned in to complete jackasses.

[SOONER44EVER]

First time Baylor left the state of Texas to play this year, pathetic. That rush defense looks marshmallow soft and Baylor fans have turned in to complete jackasses. And they are undefeated and ranked ahead of us.

[bluedogok]

So are a lot of other people, doesn't mean they are the next coming of Oregon. They happened to run up against a team with a pulse today, basically they were ranked according to their preseason. They only scored half of what they normally do, they are pretty much who I thought they were....

I don't expect a win in that game, still doesn't mean that Baylor is a national contender or even a complete team like some seem to saying about them this week. They are a very good offensive team with a average defense and are probably the class of the conference at this point. Doesn't mean that reality is suspended.

[aurorasooner]

My goodness. The pigs got butt-stomped by USCe 52-7. At least we won't be catching any s&^t from the Arkys. Bulimia may wish he stayed at Wisky who mud-holed Northwestern. Karma, I guess.

I noticed that Herby picked Udub to upset the Ducks. LOL

Also Utah is up on Stanford 21-14, start of the 2nd half, PAC-12 channel.

[Tear Down This Wall]

Someone already said this, but the fact that some are following the progress of Baylor shows how far this conference has fallen.

Meanwhile, Mizzou, who stole our spot in the SEC because Boren desperately wants Ivy League backbenchers in the Pac-12 to consider OU one of them and Castiglione is afraid of better competition, just knocked off Georgia between the hedges to go 6-0.

The pied piper who led Boren and Castiglione down the primrose path to the point where we stayed in this sh*thole of a conference, DeLoss Dodds, has been run into retirement.

I don't care what else he's done for the school. As far as forethought with the athletics department, David Boren is nothing but a plastic dick chisel.

F'ing Mizzou.
