Skylar Thompson played well in the 1st half, with the exception of a terrible interception. You can’t throw the ball late down the middle of the field with a safety sitting their waiting. I have no idea what he was looking at, because Baylor wasn’t disguising their coverage. The safety was camped out in center field at the snap and only moved when Thompson threw the ball at him.
The passing game wasn’t particularly dynamic, but it was sufficient and kept the Baylor defense from loading up the box. Thompson was hitting the out routes and comebacks to the sideline with regularity.
