Yes, I'm Giddy


  • But being on the road all day keeps me from yapping about it.
  • How weird is this: Baylor is in the Top 25 and Texas and Florida are not.
  • I'd bet the house that would not happen within 25 years.
  • Now Baylor plays Texas next week and a sense of dread overcomes me. Mack Brown, in his post game press conference, was pissed. I feel a beat down coming on.
  • In case you missed it, Texas lost to Iowa State at home. That's an Iowa State team ranked 112th in total defense and 104th in total offense, and was beaten by Oklahoma by 52. Oh, my. 
  • Baylor could beat the Texas v. UCLA team or Texas v. Iowa State team, but will get killed by the Texas v. Nebraska team. 
  • And Baylor was also #25 in the BCS rankings. So they're telling me there's a chance for a National Championship? (That's a movie reference that you'll either get or not.) 
  • I can't tell you how great Baylor's quarterback is. The guy is a world class sprinter but decided to stay put and pass for over 400 yards on Saturday.  He takes a below average team to, admittedly, a slightly above average team. And for that, I'm thankful. 
  • I'm still amazed at how TCU's defense shut him down. No one else has. 
  • Baylor, and I can't believe I'm saying this, leads the nation in total offense.
I haz pre-season arrogance syndrome.
