*** Baylor vs Sparty Cotton Game Thread ***

[norcalcy]

Other than hiring Mangino, I haven't seen a deliberate move for a long time. Impressive how MSU and Baylor have gotten themselves to this point. So frustrating to be six years in and starting over.​

Derp...

 

[CyArob]

Michigan State running the option? What was that?

 

[MNclone]

Very obvious that these announcers dont watch much Big12 football.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

Anybody know if there was special meaning to Corey Coleman's touchdown celebration? He touched each ankle in sequence and then formed an X with his forearms?

I dunno, but sounds like its worthy of a 15 yard penalty if EJ Bibbs' salute resulted in one.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

I think the entire stadium knew that would be a fake FG try.

 

[CyFan61]

LOL @ calling a timeout to set up a fake FG when it would be your kicker's career long and the defense is set up in Safe all along

 

[jdoggivjc]

Impressive catch, but they'll never be able to overturn that for a TD.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

That's the second penalty on MSU's #4 on that drive.

 

[MNclone]

That McDowell dude should be thrown out of this game.

How is that a first down without even measuring?

 

[Goothrey]

I like how the player stretches the ball out at the end of the play and all the ref did was put the laces up.

 

[jdoggivjc]

After the first two drives Baylor's defense has really stepped up.

Yes that was a pretty comical looking 'spot'.

 

[cyclonespiker33]

and then we recruited high school TE's to play offensive line and 5'8" 175 lb running backs. 5'6" corners, undersized D-linemen, etc. Obviously there's some give and take, but we tried to out-finesse the big 12 with a lower quality of athlete and it totally backfired. Thankfully we have guys on roster now that are starting to fit the mold. I like the size and skill sets of our new WR/TE's, O-line, D-Line has good size now, and our safeties bring the heat.

I'd take 5 Ben Lamaak's every year.

Because if they'd have measured it, they wouldn't have gotten it.

 

[MIClone]

This is one of those games where the time of possession stat is useless. I will blow my top if these announcers talk about it as if it is meaningful.

 

[CyArob]

Baylor looking impressive right now

 

[HFCS]

Superior Big 12 speed and athleticism starting to show.

 

[jdoggivjc]

This is starting to turn into an offensive clinic hosted by Baylor.
