Alot has been said about Baylor that they aren't as tough with a loss to Okie St., who threw for 440 yds and TCU who had 2 weeks to prepare and ran for 122 yds. What I do know is this. Case McCoy is a horrible QB. Under pressure he throws tons of picks. Baylor can stop the run which Texas relies on first. Without it, they have to depend on McCoy to make the right throws. Yes, they looked horrible vs. Okie St. and TCU, but look at how they demolished OU at Baylor and Texas Tech at Lubbock. These 2 programs are just beneath Texas. I personally see this game about 17-21pts here with the line moving accordingly. I maybe the only one on Baylor, but those are my reasons. Great running offense, better QB, better run defense. Less Turnovers.
