Baylor QB Jarrett Stidham questionable to start against TCU

Oklahoma State is a four-point home underdog after picking up its first loss of the season last Saturday against Baylor. The first score came in the first quarter to put the Bears up 14-0.

Baylor quarterback Jarrett Stidham is questionable start during the No. 10 Bears’ matchup with TCU on Friday. Baylor rushed 73 times for 304 yards and stuffed Oklahoma State’s running attack, which totaled a pathetic eight net yards on 23 rushes. “Everything he did was not a surprise to us”, Briles said of Johnson.

“One of the most valuable things he brings to the table is just a positive attitude, just a tremendous teammates”, Briles said. “I hope it’s not his Baylor hat, I don’t want him throwing our merchandise around”.

“Honestly, he’s not very good”.

Johnson went to Waco a quarterback in 2013 but moved to receiver because “we felt like he was too good an athlete to stand on the sideline with his cap on backwards”, Briles explained, a reference to his belief that two scholarship quarterbacks is enough, and he’d rather use the leftover financial aid on a lineman. It’s his right ankle and his hand.

Mayfield took a helmet-to-helmet hit early in the second quarter of the 30-29 win over TCU. “It’s really puffy and he can’t grip the ball, but they don’t think there’s a break in there”, said Briles. “I think they understand that”. Johnson said. “I’d probably say Rice”.

Cannon had 210 yards receiving and two touchdowns on five catches in the win. “With Corey on the other side getting double and triple teamed, it opened up a lot of stuff for me and Jay Lee”, said Cannon. “We were hungry. Everybody was talking down on us once again”. It’s impossible to trust OK State after what it showed us last week. But the No. 9 Cowboys (10-1, 7-1 Big 12, No. 5 CFP) still have plenty at stake in Saturday night’s regular-season finale against No. 5 Oklahoma (10-1, 7-1, No. 7 CFP).

Ending a decades-long losing streak at Boone Pickens Stadium, the No. 10 Bears rolled past No. 6 Oklahoma State 45-35 to remain relevant in the College Football Playoff picture. The Cowboys would at worst share the Big 12 championship with a win next Saturday at home against Oklahoma. If anything, the Texas loss benefits the Sooners – there’s no tug-of-war going on between Oklahoma and another Playoff contender as a result of a head-to-head outcome, as was the case for TCU and Baylor a season ago.

Rudolph passed for 430 yards and three touchdowns – on 27-of-50 completions – to top the Cowboy passing assault. It was also the seventh 200-yard receiving game by a Baylor player.

You just fight through every play and then we’ll get to the end and have three or four weeks off in December where we can get ready for our bowl game. The call was reversed.

UCONN 20, No. 13 HOUSTON 17: In East Hartford, Connecticut, Noel Thomas caught two touchdown passes, including a 45-yarder on a trick play in the fourth quarter, and the Huskies (6-5, 4-3 American Athletic Conference) beat the Cougars.

A 39-yard touchdown pass from Rudolph to Washington tied it 14. Baylor gained 439 yards and ran 61 plays in the first half, but had two critical fumbles that kept Oklahoma State in the game. Johnson threw touchdown passes on his first two possessions of the second half to put the Bears in control. OSU pass rusher Emmanuel Ogbah, Baylor offensive lineman Spencer Drango, Baylor defensive tackle Andrew Billings and Bears defensive end Shawn Oakman were among the top National Football League draft prospects in the game. “When they’re hitting on that segment of their offense, they’re tough to deal with”.
