Why Baylor won't copy Army's triple-option formula against Oklahoma

Last week, Army's triple option gave No. 6 Oklahoma fits, pushing to Sooner to overtime before they eventually pulled away.

Despite Army's success with the triple option, Baylor head coach Matt Rhule said his team won't look to do anything similar to try and steal an upset win against Oklahoma.

"[Army] want to keep you off the field. I think they had 45 minutes time of possession and it's just this stifling feeling. Every possession is valuable," Rhule said during Baylor's media availability on Monday. "I don't think we're built like that. You'd love to go out there and slow the game down, keep their offense off the field, but that's not where we are right now.
