Baylor 2009

Well, we're going to hit them coming off the bus. Let's see how they like that.
As I recall Baylor and Nebraska were the two games after Bates left, during which the staff had said they were trying to "protect" Arnaud or something. We scored 10 against Baylor and 7 against Nebraska. We averaged 26.5 against the rest of the Big XII. I think its fair to say that last years Baylor game was not indicative of our offense.
That said, I'd also give Baylor the edge right now in a close game.

That isn't a bad thing. Best to get the sour taste out of the staff's mouth. The players sure as heck won't forget what happened and it should be all the motivation they need.
funny one year of semi-success and they think they'll come in here and blow us out by 25. We may be bad but i dont believe we'll lose by that much if we lose. I say its 50-50 right now for the game, depends on how the previous games go. If we come in with our heads down we'll lose by 2 touchdowns, but i can see like someone said a 24-20 game or something similar. No team will win by more than 2 touchdowns this game.

Baylor is awesome.... they even legalized dancing a few years back! What an awesome place.
One can't help but be impressed by a "religious university" that cheats in sports.
It would be very difficult to predict this game given ISU will be using new offensive and defensive schemes.
Plus, as previously mentioned Bates left mid week before the Baylor game and this may have had a dramatic effect on both the way ISU coached and the attitude of the team.
ISU also used so many underclassmen last year that I would expect some improvement for ISU based on experience alone.

I agree. There is really no logical reason to expect we will be better than Baylor this year.
Compare our track records in Basketball and FB since the Big 12 was formed.
We have 5 bowl games, Baylor has 0.
We have several NCAA Tourneys in MBB, Baylor has 1. We have 2 conference championships in MBB and 1 conference Tournament Championship.
We are down but we have been much more successful than Baylor til the last couple of years.
