I can't dog Baylor. They have won eery game and by a lot. We will see how good they are for real when they play a better Okie St defensive team and a very balanced offense.

To be fair, they only beat Kansas State by 10

Maybe. Illinois' win over Cincinnati is lightyears better than anything Tech has done. Their best win is Texas State, for crying out loud.

Cincinnati is garbage. The fact they couldn't beat Illinois is a testament to that, and they got blown out for that matter. Neither team has a good win. I will give Illinois credit for at least having a playing a difficult schedule though.

I'd argue Cincy has been considerably more impressive this year than Tech and you'd be hard-pressed to argue that point. Both teams are fairly average and would likely finish no higher than 7th/8th in a decent conference.

Cincy hasn't beaten a top 75 team this year and has lost to two teams that are 90+. They have the 135th SOS. They've played ONE top 90 team and still have two losses. Come on that is pathetic. lol.

Neither Cincy nor Tech have any notable wins, but Cincy has 2 dreadful losses.

Oh I don't disagree, Cincy is by no means a world-beater. My point is that beating Texas Tech isn't an accomplishment.

Ok, so back to the original statement, beating Cincy means jack shit then right?

Baylor and Ohio St. have a common opponent and Baylor beat them a whole lot worse if you want to compare schedules.

North Carolina beat Boston College by nearly twice as much as Florida State. Does that mean anything?

No different than the Wisconsin fans pimping tOSU. Or is it?

I think it's the fact that it's Baylor, one of the most traditionally weak teams in the conference history.

Yeah, they've been a shitty program, but they are on the rise. Finished top 15 two years ago and top 30 last year and now are in the top 5. I'm not sure why you give a shit what a team did 5 years ago, as it pertains to this year? Programs can't get better, I guess?

This Baylor teams reminds of the K-State teams Snyder had at #1 a couple times. Who cares about their history, this team can play! I doubt tOsu could stay within 2 touchdowns of Baylor.
