What I Think About Taking Baylor to 2 OTs

That’s a tough pill to swallow when a team does nothing for 50 of the 60 minutes of a game, minus two games, but hear me out. This defense is very good. It might be 2010 good. So what do you do when your best unit is a top 10 level defense? You play to your strength and that sometimes means not taking chances. Most of us don’t like that. We saw that with Don Nehlen in the ‘80s and ‘90s when the conservative offense seemed to be run, run, draw, punt, repeat. I personally loved the Rich Rod and Dana Holgorsen offenses with big splash plays and big runs but playing so fast can take a toll on the defense.
