As for your attempts at denigration, y'all like to talk first and think later, don't you?
Wasn't trying to denigrate anyone. As for ball control, Baylor runs the ball more than it throws, and a larger percentage of the time than Stanford. The Bears have the number1 rusher in the Big 12 in Terrance Gannaway with 1,347 yards. Baylor was the second best rushing team in the Big 12 and 17th in the country going into the Texas game. I don't have the stats handy after this weekend's game, but it likely didn't get worse. Baylor is not a pass-happy offense. They just gain a lot of yards per play.
