Pick the winner Baylor vs. ISU
- Thread starter Osoprimo
- Start date
Talk like that will make you very popular around here despite your Baylor Homerism... :laugh:
First let me say I had no idea Baylor was decent in the 80's. You never hear about that. And yes talk like that about EIU will make you VERY popular around here.
Much more than decent, actually very good. As Osoprimo said before many times BU finished the season ranked in the top 20. Starting in '74 with their 1st conference title in a long time thru '91 when BU started 5-0 and were ranked #8 in the nation to the last bowl season in '94 Baylor had some very good teams. Other good seasons not mentioned were '79-beat Clemson in the Peach Bowl, '80-SWC Champs (10-1)played Alabama in Cotton Bowl, '85-beat LSU in the Liberty Bowl, '86-beat Colorado in the Bluebonnet Bowl.
No problem, it's all about what have you done lately. In Baylor's case it's squat. Here's to a good game this weekend.
Agreed I think it will be a good game. Personally, since I'm a Cyclone, I would love to see ISU have a huge game (I'm sure that you would like to see Baylor have a huge game too) Any other game though I would root for Baylor because they are in a similar situation to us.
28-13 Baylor. Maybe this'll be the game where we can get something going on defense.
Sic 'em Bears.

all I can say is that I have definitely learned a lot about Baylor football. I have learned a lot on this thread, but I will still have to go with my clones. Track speed doesn't always translate into greatest football player ever so hopefully the the D can stay in front of him. Although I do remember someone named Tim Dwight who score a few Tds on us in the past...
Tim Dwight also had the advantage of playing against a junior high defense whenever he played us. We have a defense now. Big difference.
A lot of younger fans don't know our history, but that's to be expected. Especially when we were in the SWC and you in the Big 8 why would you even care about BU?
I can remember ISU beating Nebraska twice in the 1970's as I recall. Both were great games and Nebraska seemed so unbeatable back then.
I wish ISU great success in Football, just not against us.

I would agree, definitely upgraded since then, just remembering the last track star to have a good game against us.
The trouble with the Waco Triip/Baylor game is that ISU has NOT WON a road game in a coonsage!!
If I-State plays a first half like at UNLV...this game will be a blow out by halftime...the clones had better play lites out for 4 qtrs or they are gonna lose...Robert Griffin is the real deal!!:yes:

Must be a Hawk fan. I think that you all have enough to worry about without trying to be funny here.
That 8 win prediction is looking a lot tougher now, or were you one of those tools that thought you'd go 10-2, 11-1 and restore Iowa's place of dominance in the world of college football.
But, hey, you beat Iowa State, so good job.
Go Indiana!

ISU 38 BU 27. This is going to be somewhat of a shoot out. We realy need this fo breeak our losing streak on the road and to get our conf win streak started.
This is where you're forgetting that he only had a hand in 3 of their points. Brodell had a punt return for a TD and Christensen was the QB on their touchdown drive.
Back to the top at hand, I see track meet around 38-35 with either team coming out on top.
