Baylor by 60 at least...

Let's be honest.....Baylor will score as many points as it wants to. It will be 70. The only question that Briles has to weigh is kind of like the McCarney years.....If he scores 80, it might be too abrasive nationally for the voters and sports writers, and he really wants to let ISU Admin have a way of keeping Rhoads so he has this easy, effective bye week on his schedule. All the Big 12 coaches want CPR to stay.....if they humiliate him past a certain threshold they might actually go out and get a good staff.

I heard a couple years ago from somebody close to ISU program/athletics and he said already a couple years ago that teams loved getting ready for ISU. They had harder times in high school in Texas preparing for games. That is where ISU is at in the Big12.

Yeah, that attitude is why we come out and dominate up to, and sometimes including, an entire quarter of football. Teams don't think that way anymore.
