Baylor went into halftime up just a single score at 28-21. Thirty minutes of game time later, the Bears had a 56-21 win built on a dominant second half. A big part of that was Seth Russell, who finished the game with 376 yards passing, 59 yards rushing, and a combined 6 touchdowns. Another big part was a defense that responded to an abysmal first half by allowing just 114 yards thereafter.
At one point, in the context of comparing Baylor's game tonight with TCU's last night, Mack Brown on the telecast mentioned that the two games gave the respective coaches about everything they could have wanted.
