SMU v BU: 3 Concerns of a Baylor Fan

Postby Waco Bear » Fri Aug 22, 2014 6:58 pm

I bleed green and gold so I hope y'all don't mind me visiting your board for the next 9 days or so. Here are the things that concern me about the game against you next Sunday (in no particular order).

1. Baylor is opening the season against a much stronger opponent than it did last season (Wofford).

2. SMU played UCF better than Baylor did last season.

3. Baylor may be distracted by the hoopla over the stadium opening.

4. SMU should be up for this game because it provides an opportunity for a signature win, much like Baylor's victory over TCU in 2011.

5. Baylor is playing its first game in McLane on a Sunday! That seems like bad mojo for a Christian school.

It is just a preseason game. No big deal.

Thought you just had 3 concerns. Welcome though.

Don't think you have anything to be worried about though.

Good point, CenTX. I guess I grew more concerned as I drafted.

Baylor has a Heisman Trophy candidate at quarterback and great receivers, we have 3 new starters in the secondary. We also have a defensive coordinator who is an ardent believer in the 3-man rush. Are you still worried?

Don't forget, Art Briles thinks this Baylor team will be faster than last years team.

I hope actual football players don't think the way the rest of you do.
