Just gonna assume our roster is a little lighter than theirs due to portal transfers and opt outs plus the game probably means a little more to Baylor.

Were missing like 12 starters, 3 on oline, and 3 of 4 leading reception guys. That's it

It’s closer to 8 by my count

Kyren
Taylor
CJ
Campbell
Jones
Dellinger (Haven’t had him since October)
Sage

those are the only important players we’re missing, and as noted we’ve been without Dellinger for a while now. they will be missed tomorrow, but it’s good that the guys behind them get some good game action before the spring like how Nuss did against Wisconsin. the rest are additions by subtraction

Major
Gilbert

Because our offensive line is crap. The center is terrible. We can’t run the football. Our QB refuses to run, so trying to run RPO is an absolute waste. Everyone in the stadium knows he’s not gonna keep the ball.

Baylor is gonna pin their ears back and crash the corners all night. Contrary to the opinions of some here, Aranda is a pretty good defensive coach.
