The weekend starts tonight! Baylor at K-State

Baylor is a fraud and this might be the worst Bill Synder KSU team I can recall. The new QB Keeper Bowl is going to love KSU v Maryland.
 
Well, if that play would have worked, we'd all be applauding Snyder for his guts... and I love the attitude of playing for the win. But why on the first play? Why not try some normal stuff to get to the Baylor 30 or so, and then depending on the time left, try something like that?
Lol guts? They called a play that needed the defense to over commit on a fake screen when they would obviously be in a prevent defense. That never would have worked in that situation.

Well, after watching that I think it is pretty clear that Alabama should have been #3 at worst. Committee will fix it next week.

What gets me here (and on all similar trick plays where someone other than the QB passes), is not the call the call itself, but that I'm not sure I can ever recall the ball being wisely thrown away when the receiver is not open. Sure, I understand that in this situation it is a rare shot at glory and it is a player that is not accustomed to reading pass defenses... but does it really have to be so compulsory that the ball be thrown in into traffic like that on similar trick plays?

Don't know, but the other online coaches here say it should have been "obvious that Baylor would be in a prevent defense" and that the play in question would never work against a prevent. Perhaps those jackwagons should call up Snyder and tell him all he needed to do was 7-yard outs in front of the DBs and have his WR immediately go out of bounds since it was so obvious a prevent was in place. I mean, he is a dumb coach, now isn't he?
 
Baylor is a joke. K-State could just as easily have won that game. Some "explosive offense." LOL

K-State has no passing game, and yet Baylor could not stop the run. If the K-State kid who jumped that sideline route catches that ball, it's a 14-point turnaround. That one play allowed a mediocre Baylor team to escape. K-State has now lost 5 games. But will the committee care? Hell no. They already know what they believe, and they'll be damned if they'll let reality change that. No integrity at all, and it's making a sham of college football.
