Two Inches and a Gut Punch: Putting a Big 12 Heartbreaker in Perspective

Y’all seem to think that racking up wins against teams like Missouri State Oregon State and Kansas brings prestige while letting Baylor TCU and K State win conference titles.

How many more conference titles does Baylor get to win before Gundy has to win or be fired? How about Iowa State? What about Cincinnati or the other teams coming in. I can tell you! All of them can win as much as they possible cause Gundy will never be fired. He could finish in the bottom half of the conference for the next 20 years and y’all would be talking about how close we are. This is worse than little brother syndrome.

National recognition contributes to prestige. The AP Poll voters and CFB Committee get to determine how strength of schedule plays into each team’s comparison to one-another. Beating high powered football programs such as OU is meaningful, or at least maybe to most of us. Perhaps not you. To each their own.

So 3-14 is the prestige that you hang your hat on.

Unfortunately I think you’ll find yourself disappointed if you decide to judge a team based on its record against another that invests significantly more capital in its program and regularly attracts far better recruits.

You brought up OU, I’ve been asking about the other teams in the conference and ones coming in. I didn’t even mention Texas. We’ve went 10 years without winning a second conference title does he get 10 more years? 20? Ever?

Soon y’all won’t be able to blame OU. In fact OU can’t be blamed this year. I’m sure you’re one who claims we are second best team in the conference but it took 5 years to get to the conference championship game and there’s not one year that OU was the only team keeping us out.

Then ur more of a moron then u thought u were.
When briles protects criminals they dnt go to jail. If criminals dnt go to jail they can play on dirt bag teams.
I think what u meant to say was briles did good why can’t we get rapist.

No cause I don’t think being a rapist makes you a better football player but obviously you do. So all I’ve got to say to you is "you’re sick "

No u r. Rapist should be in jail not play for Baylor.
U want to know what briles did for an equal advantage.
But u still can’t see. Dnt try to deflect it to me ur tge briles fan.

I already said if someone does something wrong they should be punished but the excuses that Gundy couldn’t beat them because they are bad people.

There u go again. It’s not excuses. If like u say is true, the 30 plus players should have been playing. Because, they should in ur word be punished.
These r ur words r u saying now u were wrong.

Whether they are punished or not, you still have to play the team on the other side of the field.

whoops, my bad

You’re right about Oline coach deserving some scrutiny. I don’t understand how it is still a weak point considering we hired Dickey from KState and they had good lines. I don’t know what the deal is here.

Who said you had to? Baylor has done nothing but prove with two different coaches after Briles that you can still make it to the championship game a couple of times within 4 years and actually win one. Our coach has proven if you stick with him another 10 years the best he can do for you is runner-up.

  • Baylor has three conference titles since 2013 (Gundy has zero)

  • Baylor has been under three different coaches since 2016 (Gundy has been here)

  • Baylor has beaten OU four times since 2011 (Gundy has done it three times)

  • Gundy is 4-7 against Baylor in his last 11 meetings

  • Baylor has played in three NY6 bowls since 2013. (Gundy is on his second)

Baylor used to be battling it out with Kansas to avoid last place in this conference. Now they are competing and solidifying themselves as the ring leader for the new Big 12 conference.

Meanwhile, we have a coach that’s 1-4 in conference title games, and finds ways to lose to first and second year coaches. Are you still sure want to stick with mediocrity?

You’re right. One “Catching Lightning in a Bottle” conference title in 17 seasons. Such a true champion.

So u still haven’t went to the portal

Gundy is also 4-7 in his last 11 meetings against a school that’s had four different coaches in the last 14 years (Baylor).

Well….eventually when the head coach keeps mimicking excuses to the media your average fan starts to believe it. It’s a lot like propaganda. A lot like what socialists and communists do. Learn to listen and be obedient. Don’t ever use any critical thinking skills for yourself.

That’s a threat to the corporate elite. I hope one day our athletic budget can get upwards to $150 million. If that day ever comes, will be nice to see what the excuses will be when we are in year 24 or 25 and still nothing to show for it. Unlike many around here, I can spot the BS on target. Gundy is a guy that has more excuses written down before his media days than he does new plays in his playbook.

So who was doing your course work for you? Because with how incompetent your grammar skills are I’m going to call BS.
