Take Two: Cocerns about Baylor's playoff hopes?

In this week's Take Two, we debate whether there should be concerns about Baylor's hopes following the season-ending neck injury to quarterback Seth Russell:

Take 1: Max Olson -- No

I’m going to take the optimist’s route on this, because I still think Baylor has an elite team surrounding its quarterback.

Shock Linwood is averaging 8 yards per carry and is the No. 6 rusher in college football. The junior will end up being the most productive back in Baylor history when he’s done. Baylor has the best receiver in the country and squad of wideouts that one Big 12 coach called the best he’s ever seen.
