This is as much for the coming years as it is for Friday night. Leave a big, fat, nasty bruise on them...that is what they intend to do to us.
-Our defense doesn't just try to 'contain' Baylor's offense. They have way too much talent, and it will be death by a thousand cuts. Blitz, without screaming "All Out!" at the LOS. (although that would be kinda hilarious to do at some point for PB's sake)
-No major injuries...
-No turnovers. Don't make it any easier for Baylor than it is...
-Who Dares, Wins....Dare.
63-31, this year. Make them pull away in the second half. Be within 14 at intermission.
Did I mention that Baylor is still the one team I dislike more than all our former SWC foes?
So how will you determine if we 'hit them in the mouth' on the first play? They don't throw an 80 yd TD bomb/half our OLine or DLine doesn't end up on their backs/they gain less than 5 yds/we gain more than 5/Prescott or Davis doesn't leave game with concussion?
That is how you hit them in the mouth on your first play. Much like they hit us with 4 straight jabs on their first possession.
