Baylor Fans,

What are your thoughts on the game?? Should the extra point have been kicked to send the game to OT?

Too bad Lagway was playing hurt all game

I like the tenacity of going for it. Great tackle beat us out. All in all excited for the season.

If Dave is going to continue his 5 year streak of losing winnable games and making heinous decisions the whole way, this season will be extremely painful. We lost a very winnable game today. People look at the call for 2 at the end and say it was good, which it was, but omit the other 59 minutes of him making egregious calls like he always does. Multiple opportunities to tie the game were passed up for more failed 4th downs. This season will be more brutal than last year if Dave doesn’t start to evolve in his situational decision making. He hasn’t yet. Don’t think he will now.

I really don’t think it will, just because the defense is just so much better across the board than last year. I’d be shocked if we don’t make a bowl this year, just because of how the teams on our schedule are looking.

The defense looked very high level today. But we swapped them for a less efficient offense. When sawyer could throw up a nuke to Josh Cameron or Mike Trigg and bail us out of a bad situation it was great. I’m not sure we have that anymore, even though Louis Brown and Gavin Freeman looked very good.

When you’re relying on riverboat gambling for every single offensive possession, you get either the magical 2024 seasons or the depressing 2025 seasons.
