Baylor Lost, and I'm still a Bear

Baylor Lost.

Figures.

I'm still wearing my Baylor Jersey though.


The newspaper said "Oklahoma crushed Baylor". That's B.S. pure and simply. Yes Oklahoma won 49-17, but for the #1 Sooners to only beat the #30 Bears 49 to 17, the word "crushed" is not put to good use there. Crushed means a shut-out. Crushed would mean the Sooners came on the field and didn't allow the Bears a point.

It's true that Baylor is not the Big 12 Dynasty it used to be. It's true that Guy Morris isn't the world's most winning coach, but Baylor is coming out of a slump. It takes time to build a team back up, and I think Baylor held their own on Saturday.

Of course I may just be harping on my hopes to someday not to be the only person with a Baylor shirt on in South Carolina. C'mon Bears, do it for us wayward Baylorites.

Currently Listening to: "Beverly Hills" by Weezer as my own personal tribute to the Baylor Bears football team who plays their home games at Floyd Casey Stadium (which is actually in Beverly Hills, Texas and not Waco even though the school is in Waco)
