Baylor Bears Football Thread

Got my tickets for the game this weekend, so pumped.

 

so angry!

what will ok state be ranked when they win?

 

Should I not be nervous then? :grin:

It's hard to win on the road in most BCS conferences. Miss State put up a fight against Bama on Sat.

You're rather confident.

Ok State stacked the box to contain Texas' run game yet Texas still had some success. Obviously, you can't do that against Baylor.

Baylor needs to get off to a good start. Can't start slow like the past 2 games.

 

I am so nervous about the game, we haven't won in Stilly since 1939 and we always seem to play horrible there even with RGIII.

 

This team is MUCH better than that RG3 team. Wish we had Reese but next man up.

 

Confident about one of my sports teams? Not in a long time, sir.

I just think ziggy likes to tear down the big 12 in anyway he can. miss state was the only sec team ok state played and it was at a neutral field and they only let them score 3. same team dropped 41 in college station. glass houses, bro.

 

Was Ziggy's sister on the OK State recruit welcoming committee or something? Good lord, his posts are so sadly predictable.

 

Definitely not disagreeing with you about this team being better than the RGIII Heisman team, I am just worried that Petty isn't used to a hostile environment like this.

Tevin is a huge loss but Levi stepped up huge on Saturday and if Goodley doesn't drop 3 passes that he would have taken to the house the game is over before halftime.

 

I guess that I should have used the word overconfident

"The mind. Without question. Everything's about your mental attitude, and how you approach it, and how you get to where you wanna get. You have to understand that the field may not be equal from a lot of different standpoints — resources, facilities, support, fan support — but all those things, if you let them filter in, you lose sight of your focus. Our focus has always been that we're gonna be the standard, we're gonna do what we do and do it as well as anyone does it, and we're not gonna have any excuses or comparisons along the way. That's our motto: no excuses, no comparisons, and no compromises."


Good deadspin article about why Briles is succeeding.

Really good interview with Briles on Gameday just now.

 

Baylor getting stopped cold.

 

Can't go undefeated without facing a test. This is it.

 

Been waiting all year to see the Bears. So far, not much to see.

 

Baylor is a solid team, that has benefited from an extreme cupcake schedule. They play an actual good team and get handled.

Big 12 is a train wreck right now

 

First test for Baylor: total fail

 

Damn.

Too bad for Baylor. Was hoping they would run the table.

 

So if Texas beats Tech (kinda doable) and OU beats OKST, then Baylor vs Texas is the defacto Big 12 Championship game. Thanks Baylor.
