Interesting, BYU looking pretty stout if Baylor is any good!

Yes. They got some fire tonight.

4 of their next 6 including tonight are against decent P5 teams. Curious to see how they hold up in a schedule like that.

Voluntarily scheduling a game in Provo that late in the season is looking idiotic now. This stadium is SEC level nuts, when they’re good and winning. It’s loud as hell there right now.

I still say the game at BYU will be the toughest of the entire season.

If Bama bests us, so what, plus it's at home.

Provo is 4500 ft above see level and nobody on our team has ever been to any place like it. Scheduling BYU anywhere is dumb, but agreeing to go to Utah is beyond moronic. Their roster is all 25 yr olds with 2 kids and a mortgage.

They are pretty stout against the run hopefully we open up the offense a bit by then

Their field goal unit apparently sucks

They’ve missed two different times with a chance to win it at the end of regulation and the end of the first overtime,

Yeah but how many wives do they have to put up with off the field?

Watched all of the game last night. I think Baylor's offensive play calling would give Les Miles a run for his money. BYU's was better, but their 3rd down play calls were terrible all night long.

I think we are much better than BYU, but their home field advantage will account for some points.

Baylor had 152 yards on the ground against BYU and the offensive line didn't look very good against them. That QB wasn't very good and while BYU is tough they don't have the athletes to compete with upper level SEC teams.

They travel to Notre Dame the week before. Need a loss there to temper the team down a bit.

I think this plays into the reason they're so good. gotta take that stress out somewhere.

Don't look now but IF we were to win 3 out of the next 4 and BYU did the same....i would imagine GameDay would be in provo. That place would be a madhouse.

ND vs BYU is in Las Vegas. Talk about an awesome RV trip, I would hit that game than drive around for a week out west before the BYU-Arkansas

Especially black kids. Not saying that anyone has it, but doesn’t sickle cell cause problems at those heights? Didn’t it cost Ryan Clark or someone their spleen?

I'm not convinced that Baylor is very good at this point. BYU had them tendencied out pretty well and seemed to know when to bring 8. Baylor never took advantage. Mormons left the seams open all night and I think I saw Baylor take advantage one time.
Their offense had very little success with anything but outside zone and never really tried to do anything different.
Don't get me wrong, this game is going to be tough, but I think the season will show that Baylor was probably overrated. Their defense isn't bad but their offense is terrible.

It doesn’t hurt, until you have that disease and your red blood cells start attacking your internal organs.

Should probably check the kids for it.

Is Sickle Cell too Dangerous to Play in Denver.

It's NCAA rule that you have to test every athlete for it. If someone refuses to be tested for it for some reason then they're treated as if they have it.
