Texas vs. Baylor tweets
- Final score is #UT 45, Baylor 21. Now to watch and hope for LSU and Oklahoma State. Geaux Cowboys! right after the game
- Bah. They call another one on Cody. Apparently the Big 12 didn’t get the point of complaints on non-calls. Two BS ones late dont count. during garbage time
- Damn. Big TD run by Chiles is called back because of holding on Cody Johnson well out of the play. during fourth quarter
- #UT offense doing much better job milking play clock today than we did last week with 90 seconds left.
during fourth quarter - Disappointing effort by #UT defensive backups. K Robinson and N Brewster need to do better job taking on blocks instead of avoiding. during fourth quarter
- Ryan Bailey kicks FG instead of Hunter Lawrence. Might be seeing Bailey on shorter FGs now? #UT 45, BU 14 during fourth quarter
- Chiles fumbles 3rd down snap and forces FG. Hope Chiles keeps his head up it’s been fun to watch him play with more energy (and fun) lately during fourth quarter
- @kbohls agree about Baylor improvement. Think A&M is wishing they had hired Briles right about now? during fourth quarter
- Retweeting @suzhalliburton: McCoy’s final stats — 26 of 37 for 300 yds, five TDs, two picks. #UT during fourth quarter
- Colt is done and John Chiles is in at QB for #UT. during fourth quarter
- Sure hope this is Colt McCoy’s last series after that (late) hit. Get a score and call it a day during fourth quarter
- If I’m Baylor on 4th and 41 I throw deep and see if I can get a pass interference penalty called. during third quarter
- How do you lose Shipley like that? Wide open for TD catch. Great long drive with 2 4th down conversions. #UT 42, BU 14 during third quarter
- Very annoyed that FSN never shows play clock. Really odd that I think it hasn’t been put on screen once today. Malfunction or bad coverage? during third quarter
- V McGee running with a little extra pep and strength today as well. Good to see during third quarter
- FSN announcers are right (for once). Running game creates wide open B Collins for 40yd TD catch. #UT 35, BU 14 during third quarter
- Ulatoski out with elbow injury (hyperextension?) and tray allen in during third quarter
- #UT WRs need to do better job concealing holding on run plays. Tougher to get away with out in the open. during third quarter
- 2nd half is underway with great KO tackle. #UT defense could use some fan support but no one is in the stands. during third quarter
- #UT special teams and D tried to give momentum back to BU but D stepped up. Then Colt tried again but wild last play of half incomplete. Ugh during second quarter
- big kickoff return and then stupid personal foul by A Williams gives BU great field positiion. stupid stupid. during second quarter
- Colt hits Cosby on post route for touchdown. Great running by Fozzy set it up. #UT 28, BU 14 during second quarter
- #UT has ran the ball well, let’s keep handing to RBs and keep Colt in one piece while picking up good yards (so far) during second quarter
- Weird decision on that 4th down by BU not to try harder to draw #UT offsides. What’s the harm? during second quarter
- and HUGE pick 6 for Palmer on first Baylor play. big momentum changer puts Texas back on top. #UT 21, BU 14 during second quarter
- #UT doing terrible job against the blitz. they’re getting Colt killed. Lawrence couldn’t get 44yd FG to hook and misses wide right during second quarter
- Colt’s passes are floating an awful lot and not a very tight spiral. Even when no pressure. hope he’s feeling ok during second quarter
- Maybe that’s why we haven’t seen Ben Wells more on the field this year? Just let BU receiver run right past him in man coverage. #UT 14, BU 14 during second quarter
- Injuries mounting. L Houston and E Thomas both out now too. during second quarter
- OMG an obvious hold is actually called. Shocking! during second quarter
- #UT offensive line started strong but is having blitz pickup issues and now let Fozzy get stuffed in backfield. during second quarter
- Why would BU offensive line be proud of themselved? They’re getting their butts kicked but R Griffin is a stud. during second quarter
- Baylor goes for it on 4th. Easy option TD for Griffin, love the option on the goalline. Turnover turns into points. #UT 14, BU 7 during second quarter
- Contact wasn’t created by Beasley. You’re allowed to hit WR under 5 yards before ball in the air. FSN didn’t show enough a replay to tell. during second quarter
- Ouch. McCoy just got nailed and then picked. Had Kirkendoll wide open if he’s not hit as he throws. Crap. during first quarter
- Contact before the ball got there by E Thomas but it’s not his fault the ball was underthrown Defender has a right to try to get the ball. during first quarter
- Wish B Gideon would’ve turned around and picked that pass off instead of only worrying that he wasn’t pass interfering. during first quarter
- Ref appears not smart enough to know the offense can’t fumble the ball forward for a 5-yard game. another ref came in and corrected him. during first quarter
- #UT should have used a timeout on that BU 4th down. All sorts of players moving around and trouble getting lined up. during first quarter
- Bad initial play by Muck on the BU option but he hustled and stopped what might’ve been an 80 yard TD. Come on defense. during first quarter
- 2nd and goal from the 1 and Colt hits TE Greg Smith wide open on the bootleg for the TD. #UT 14, BU 0 during first quarter
- Cosby with big 3rd down catch. BU defender dives on his back at end of play but QC gets up without issue. Good sign for #UT during first quarter
- Love being able to run for 6 on first down with Fozzy. Then they go to him on 3rd and 5. Sure wish he had gotten more snaps last week. during first quarter
- good pressure on eveyr pass on the 1st series. Henry Melton gets a big hit on Baylor QB and he gets up gingerly. during first quarter
- Very costly personal foul on L Houston. Turned 3rd and very long into 1st down on the 4o during first quarter
- #UT has had issues with mobile QBs in the past. Let’s hope Muschamp has something up his sleeve today. during first quarter
- Huge deep pass by McCoy to Cosby. Colt had ALL DAY to throw & found QC open in the end zone. Big play on important 3rd down. #UT 7, Bay 0 during first quarter
- Another penalty. Bad falst start turns 3rd and 2 into 3rd and long. #UT during first quarter
- Not too many teams run WR screens more poorly than we do. It’s just a cluster seemingly every time. during first quarter
- Two poor throws in a row for Colt. One almost picked off and then the next to M Williiams nose down and off target during first quarter
- Malcolm Williams is primary receiver on a 3rd and short. Big game last week must have given Colt and GD some confidence in him. during first quarter
- Fozzy in there on first offensive snap for #UT. during first quarter
- much better looking crowd for #UT now. both lower and upper decks on the west side looked pretty solid. around kickoff time
- not much college football on TV right now. 2:30 is when the good games star today. just before kickoff
- DKR looking pretty empty right now. Hope crowd can pull themselves away from very important things to show up for the game. just before kickoff
- Almost kickoff. Demarco Farr just said Tech loses 2 and #UT ends up in title game on the FSN pregame show. He’s still a dolt. just before kickoff
- Retweeting @bevobeat: Quan Cosby’s moving well in warmups. He looks good to go. just before kickoff
