Baylor Football
Well, Boys... it's time to crank up the blog since it's football season...
I did not listen to this week's game against NWLaSt, but I did watch the game against TCU. I was really impressed with what I saw. I figured there would be more 'first game' mistakes, especially with running a new offense. However, we didn't make many mistakes. The ones that did occur could be chalked up to minor, correctable things.
The important thing in my mind is that we controlled most of the game against a team that was ranked #23 in the nation. It didn't really fall apart until the latter part of the game. And then, we only lost by 10 points, so nothing to be embarrassed about at all. Overall, I came away happy. I think we are better than we have been in a LONG time... probably the best we have been since we were in school. Ouch. At least, it's better late than never.
Also, It was good to see us put up a lot of points against a AA team this week. Sounds like there was still some small things they want to get corrected. But again, no major problems... so that's good to hear.
THIS WEEK: Washington State... although WSU will be the favorite, I think the teams are closer in talent than most people will give us credit for. We still have the stigma as being the doormat in the Big 12. However, I think we can pull out a victory. So, I will go on record with a bold statement here...
We WILL beat WSU. THEN... we will be 4-1 AND getting votes in the polls going in to the game against Colorado. Thus, starting to chip away at that stigma!
Flipped my lid? Blind patriotism for all things Green and Gold? I don't think so my bruin friends. Comments? Opinions? Let's here them... make a post!
