Some Quick Thoughts
OK, I'm about to head out to see Snakes on a Plane, but I have to write something, since it's been more than 15 hours since I've arrived home from the game.
1. The defense is better than last years version. The new guys stepped in, and while their inexperience showed and they'll need some seasoning, the future is bright.
2. The offense is going to be good this year. Yes, we had trouble in the redzone with turnovers, but it's not like Shawn was throwing the ball to a cornerback, or Mosley just gave up that fumble. These weren't "mental error" turnovers, TCU got lucky that their DT got his hand on the ball in such a way that it bounced in a high arc directly to Ortiz. If it had traveled on down the field, it was likely to fall to the ground, if not be caught by a Baylor receiver.
3. Sepulveda is back. What a monster punt to announce that he is truly recovered.
4. CJ Wilson talks. And he backed up his game. But until the offense can punch the ball into the endzone, the chatter needs to come down a few notches. And then we can let our wins speak for themselves. How about it?
5. TCU is NOT a Top 25 team. Or Baylor is a lot closer to that than we believe.
6. Baylor still has a great shot at 7 wins. I think this team is way ahead of last years team at the same point.
7. Baylor has more Chicken Littles than any school I've ever encountered. Baylor fans make Aggies look calm, and objective about their team.
I'll have a more complete game recap later tonight.
