Predicting Baylor-Tech after strange seasons, ‘new’ QBs so far; the final Big 12 Red River Shootout and the future without Texas, OU

Release Date:

We're joined by Lubbock Avalanche-Journal mainstay Don Williams (@AJ_DonWilliams), along with the Trib's Baylor beat writer Zach Smith (@byzachsmith) and sports editor Brice Cherry (@BriceCherry), ready to dig into some BU and Big 12 football talk:1. This probably isn't where either team expected to be, but Baylor and Texas Tech are both 2-3 (1-1) headed into Saturday's game at McLane Stadium. But both have actual momentum, the Raiders after drilling Houston 49-28 and Baylor posting the biggest comeback win in school history in last week's stunner at UCF. This is historically a really tight series — how do you see this one matching up?2. And both teams have "new" QBs — After missing 3 games with an MCL injury, Baylor quarterback Blake Shapen played well against UCF, rushing and throwing for a score during the rally. Meanwhile, Texas Tech turned to its backup last week in Behren Morton after Tyler Shough went down with a broken leg. How does this Tech offense operate differently under Morton?3. It's the final Red River Shootout in the Big 12 for OU and Texas this weekend. Is this a preview of the Big 12 title game? And who wins?4. These two teams have combined for 17 of the 27 Big 12 championships over lo these many years. With both now exiting for the SEC, that would seem to leave a void in the power position atop the conference. Will the new Big 12 be more wide open, or do you think there's a team that will install itself as the perennial top dog?5 Bonus question in honor of the State Fair of Texas: What's your deep-fried fair food of choice?----- Music: https://purple-planet.com/Support the show: https://wacotrib.com/subscribe/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
