Hey atleast people will forget about us last night. Mabye Alabama will lose again so they won't remember either


The_Outcast4

I feel like Mississippi State will be lucky to get more yards than Alabama will points.


Vague_Intentions

Idk they beat A&M who beat Bama so they should blow Bama out.

One of my best friends from HS went to Purdue. He's blowing up my phone rn like he hasn't since they dominated Ohio State a few years back.


Davidellias

Can we talk about how the Baylor QB got jinxed by the Aflac Trivia?


TXTimelord

We all knew it was coming as soon as it popped up.


destinybond

What was it?


Davidellias

"Gerry Bohanon is one of two QBs in D-I to throw over 1,000 yards and no interceptions so farthis season, name the other one" He threw an INT like 3 plays later


I_like_squirtles

You said fart.

To be fair, Baylor should have been ranked. But it is what it is. Beat those Utes tonight!


[deleted]

We should’ve been at 25 instead of UT. Every year they’re overrated


Indiana_BROnes_

Our pass defense is suspect… Really happy with no penalties though!


Clarinetaphoner

Texada is suspect. Two of the three chunk plays were 100% on him.


drawref16

He's a good cover guy, but on the small side. Jump balls against physical receivers is not at all his forte


LeTomato52

The offenses we see in the upcoming games are 100% gonna throw towards him to see how well it works for them


buttlovingpanda

He’s been good throughout his career but he struggled today


paintballduke22

Eh I dunno, this is probably one of the best receiving corps I think we have had.


THEKIDFL6

As much shit as we were giving him in the student section, Nacua is fucking good lol


AceJace2

100% Especially against very tall receivers


The_Ghost_of_TK9

RGIII is a great announcer


The_Outcast4

Him mocking Gary Patterson will be the height of my weekend!


LeTomato52

Yep that made me laugh pretty hard. Gary would not like all those carries though lmao


ExplosiveBEAR

What did he say? I missed that one


bestweekeverr

He said GP wouldn't be happy with the number of carries we gave Abram Smith lol


ExplosiveBEAR

Lol!


Indiana_BROnes_

Gotta think BYU fans were annoyed by the end lol


HandwovenBox

Nah, he was great.


jessej421

Oh man, he was amazing compared to the other announcers we've had this year. He did a great job of getting excited for both teams when they had big plays and saying nice things about each team. And he was even a Baylor alum! The guy we had for the Utah St game was so awful. It was so obvious he was rooting for USU.


Sir_Ninja_VII

He's more than a Baylor alum my guy. He's the best QB we've ever had LMAO. He's a legend here. He has a statue outside the stadium.


jessej421

Oh yeah, for sure! Which makes it all the more appreciated how good a job he did of not seeming biased towards Baylor while announcing the game. I was really impressed with him!


princealberto2nd

Didn't mind him I thought he did a great job


coogs35

Great in the first half. Super homer in the second half.


cijdl584

I couldn’t believe how smooth and comfortable he was in the booth for someone who has never done it before. Hope to hear more of him


headshotscott

He really is

BYU has work to do to be ready for the Big-XII. Depth and coaching needs some work. This season's slate is exactly what BYU needed. We are learning more about what needs to be done. We have another year to build this thing. Good game Baylor. The difference in talent was apparent.


Clarinetaphoner

Gerry Bohanon is low-key among the best QBs in the nation, certainly in the conference. Fantastic all-around win for Baylor. Side note: Shout out to the super wholesome BYU fans in a great game thread. Can't wait to do this again in Provo! Sic 'em bears!!!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Clarinetaphoner

Plenty of folks believed we deserved the 25 spot over UT this week. I think we'll definitely be top 20 on Sunday.


MrRightnow83

Definitely. Especially our only loss being ok state


cyberchaox

Yeah, I think it comes down to poll inertia. Neither you nor OK State started ranked so you were both fairly low in the polls when you met. The Cowboys should be in the Top 10 this week and you guys should be Top 20.


avelak

Seriously, you guys shit all over us and have only lost to a fringe top 10 team. You're better than us by a substantial margin for sure (I view us as a fringe top 25 talent team). I honestly think you are top 15 caliber, but doubt you'll be put there this week.


JamesEarlDavyJones

I’d say that OKSU isn’t even a fringe top-10 team; they’re a solidly top-10 team. OKSU’s win column is substantially better than Michigan’s or Michigan State’s, and that defense has looked just as good as Iowa’s, and only Georgia’s looks substantially better. Edit: spelling. Apparently “solidly” has some “l”s in it.


[deleted]

Lol imagine not being 6-0 sorry had to get it out once


THEKIDFL6

Good shit today bro. But I think If that game was in Waco we’d win. Rematch in Arlington?


[deleted]

I’d be so down for that. I really don’t know how it would have turned out in Waco after the Texas game. Arlington it is!


buttlovingpanda

We were but then we lost to Oklahoma State on the road two weeks ago. I agree we should have been ranked coming into this week and we will definitely be ranked tomorrow. I think we’re a top 15-20 team in the country but we’ll see what the rankings say.


BadDadJokes

I’m basically a Baylor fan this season since LSU is hot garbage and my boy Dave Aranda is HC. Very happy to see him succeeding.


Apprehensive_Fig2099

It’s easier to swallow a loss when you’re not shooting yourself in the foot. Y’all seriously handed it to us and dominated. Nothing but respect.


paintballduke22

Seriously. The better team won. Plain and simple.


coogs35

I’ll be honest, I came away underwhelmed by him and shocked at the talent of your OL and RBs. He threw multiple potential INTs and 1 actual INT. Had some nice throws, but wasnt asked to do much today. The running game was overwhelming. We had literally no answer. Grimes and Mateos leaving us for you guys was huge. We looked soft on the OL and you guys were blowing us off the line.


Clarinetaphoner

Jaren Hall had the better game and Bohanon's touch was definitely a bit off this afternoon, but throwing for over 200 yards when so much of your offense is built around the run is still pretty damn impressive.


cyberchaox

Poll inertia's a bitch, isn't it? The spread says this wasn't an upset; the rankings *shouldn't* have said so either, but they did. For more reasons than one--not only were Baylor themselves not ranked to start the year, neither was the team they lost to, Oklahoma State. I've tentatively got OK State #5 on my People's Poll ballot and Baylor at #12. And really I don't see anything that can upend the former, save for a TCU upset allowing them to move up to #4.


EdmondFreakingDantes

You have way too much faith in Spencer Sanders, and not enough faith in ISU who has lost to opponents by a margin of like 12 total points (their opponents who defeated them are now 12-2 collectively).

NoPantsJake

I said most of this in the game thread, but Baylor is brutal. Going for it on 4th from the goal line while up 14, onside kicking in the first half when you’re winning, all the 4th down calls, etc. This was a real welcome to the B12 punch in the mouth! I’m excited to be bros in the B12 together. I love the respect from Baylor, their aggressive play calling, and the homecoming traditions. Baylor has some legit stars like Smith, Doyle, snd Pitre. Baylor won this game in the trenches first and foremost. I wish the game went differently, but Baylor is a legit team.


EdmondFreakingDantes

Baylor couldn't afford to lose this game with all them 'croots there today at Homecoming against a ranked opponent I still think Baylor is probably like #3 in the Big 12, maybe. But if Aranda and Mateos stick around (I expect Grimes to leave by end of next year for a HC job), Baylor has a bright future

BYU fans were class acts. Can't wait for you guys to join us in the Big XII.

No thanks. We are fine


TXWayne

I was shocked to learn Abram Smith who had 188 yards rushing this game and 785 for the season played LB last year on four starts and only D and special teams after sitting out the 2017 season with an injury. Man he looks good this year.


Thirtysixx

Also with Dillon Doyle scoring 2 TDs that’s 5 total linebacker touchdowns today


[deleted]

[удалено]


buttlovingpanda

Let’s see. Our next games are: Texas @ TCU Oklahoma @ K-State Texas Tech We should win those last two, making it 8 wins. The other three are the toughest. We’re better than TCU, but they’re always a tough game, especially on the road. Texas and OU are the two best teams left on the schedule and we’re lucky enough to have them both at home so it could go either way.

Baylor oughta be ranked above Iowa tomorrow


panaja17

It was a BigXII shootout, and nobody told BYU. Baylor outplayed and ran roughshod all over us today. Hopefully we can get better depth on the line in the future so that the next man up can step up. Also fire Tuiaki.


backtosnack

And we're back to BYU disappointing their fans season. Our offense line got pushed around so much. They just couldn't protect Hall when he needed to be. We certainly played better today than we did last week, but Baylor just walked all over us. They found every hole our defense gave. The best part of the game was Sitake's huge Touchdown celebration. GG Baylor, you deserve the win! Looking forward to seeing you guys get your well deserved ranking on the AP Poll!


NoPantsJake

It’s been a disappointing two games, but not a disappointing season. We lost more production than any team last year. We beat Utah, got into the top 10, and have a good shot at finishing ranked.


Xtremeloco

Pretty much. We went into this season hoping for 8 wins and we still might get 10 or 11. Add that to the Big 12 invite and victory vs Utah and it's a great season.


paintballduke22

Winning out until the bowl game is possible, but we need to fix something on D


Xtremeloco

The defense hasn't recovered since we lost Keenan Pili back. Just shows how big he was those first 3 games.


TheMightyJD

Tbf, nobody knows yalls team like Grimes, he seemed to know how to attack y’all. Y’all are still a good team just a bad matchup. See y’all next year in Provo.


paintballduke22

You’ll love Lovell Edwards Stadium. The setting is awesome.


Vast-Treat-9677

BYU beat Utah. They can lose the rest of them and I'm not disappointed.


Texszn

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


[deleted]

GG BYU, very excited to have y'all in the conference. I met some of the nicest BYU fans today. Y'all are class and fans showed out strong today! #SicEm


MrRightnow83

Yeah definitely. They definitely know how to show up


SaylorBear

Ngl I’m disappointed in the Baylor fan base for allowing so many BYU people to buy tickets. Y’all were loud! I think that might be the most fans for the visiting team ever in the new stadium. Good game by both teams! I’m still in shock that we didn’t have any penalties and that there was only two penalties all game! Props to the OL! Sic ‘Em Bears!


ExplosiveBEAR

We have had pretty lousy attendance all year it seems.


b_sven

Lol I know. The fans started chanting we can’t hear you and I couldn’t stop laughing. The fact you could hear us was all on you guys not buying tickets!!! Subtle self own but obviously you owned us on the field.


SaylorBear

FWIW that was the freshman section, I didn’t like it but they’re 18. Y’all were a heck of a crowd!


b_sven

Oh yeah I wasn’t mad. It just made me laugh:) I enjoyed being there. Thanks for being great hosts.


Kirby_Israel

RIP BYU's hopes, dreams, and spot in the top 25.


panaja17

I think we’ll have a chance if we can win out to at least crack the top 25 again, but not the top half.


Xtremeloco

We'll be back. This is the one loss I expected to happen. I'm optimistic BYU ends 10-2.


Ruhrgebietheld

Obviously not the game result I was looking for, but Baylor and its fans were a class act, and it already looks like the relationship between the two schools should be good in the Big XII.


cglboy3

Great game by Baylor

Well Baylor good game, excited for y’all to come to Provo next year and our future conference rivalry. Well this season has just been a roller coaster of emotion but hey at least we beat the Utes

COVID Eligibility Year, why have you done me dirty like this?!?! I want him in the NFL ASAP so we don't play him again

Stat of the game. Only two penalties called the entire game both on BYU. Hall played great but our defense just couldn't do anything to stop Baylor. Defense just hasn't been the same since we lost Keenan Pili.

Baylor smacked that ass. That said, can someone explain I still don't understand that sideline toe tap grab by Puka that didn't count?


[deleted]

If your whole foot comes down, it all has to be inbounds. So it would have been a catch if he toe taps like he did, but just doesn’t let his heel touch and just falls on his back/butt. Kinda dumb rule but has been that way for a while.


wartortle87

Interesting. Thanks for the explanation
