-Nate: Unlike the common thought on Baylor, they really do like to run the ball. Since K-State is good against the run, does this favor K-State? Not necessarily. K-State will be fine against the run, but they can't defend the long pass. Haven't done so yet this year. Baylor will put their receivers so wide, they'll nearly be out of bounds. They throw short, so DB's better make the tackle or they're gone. Then, when suck you up, they'll go right over you....which is where K-State has struggled.
-The young QB can't run, but has a strong arm.
-Bennett will be nervous to just allow K-State to just march down field on offense...so, he will take chances with his defense.
-This is case where Baylor knows K-State better than K-State knows Baylor...which is opposite the norm for K-State in league games due to experience of staff.
-Prediction: 36-35 K-State (used same exact score as 2011, last time K-State beat Baylor)
-BBall, anything stand out after a couple games? Yes, Sneed. He's ready to play. Athletic wing who can already shoot a little. He comes in ready to go, adds spark with his effort and defense. A lot like Wesley, but with a better shot.
-The team can score much better than prior years. 21-0 run would have been very difficult last couple years.
-Wade has struggled, so will need to have him come around. So there's obviously much upside if and when he gets going.
(Personal Note: Wade will settle in and have a good year. He started slow last year and received a lot of criticism. All he ended up doing was being named first team (top 5) All Newcomer Team (which includes transfers) in what most thought was the best league in the country).
