Did the players enthusiastically run over to grab that Bluebonnet shield and hoist it high?

Great job throwing the ball. That was great... But our running game is atrocious. I get the anti-Briles gang argument... But if you can't run the ball at all, then what do you call? He's definitely got one hand tied behind his back... We've got to hit the recruiting hard for OL.

We can run the ball though,
With our current personnel, we need to keep running outside the tackles. Our problem is the type of runs we call.
You don't just have a 1,000 rusher averaging over 5 yards/carry if you can't run the ball.

Excellent game today.
For some reason Baylor was selling out to stop the run. Sometimes you just keep trying occasionally and then take the wide open passes the rest of the time.

Fun day! Happy for our seniors to go out in style…….nice to see our guys smiling after a strong win over the hated bears.
Hoover impressed again today. One thing is for sure: if he has time to throw, he’ll make things happen. I am sure it will be tougher next week in Norman as the Boomers bring the blitz at him all night. Hopefully the OL won’t get him killed & he can hit some big throws.
And, no matter what happens, even as we suffer through a frustrating season, we are still better than the [ "illegitimate Baylor boys" ] in Waco & the cokeheads in Highland Park.

TCU bullies Baylor in Bluebonnet Battle, what now?
TCU Horned Frogs head coach Sonny Dykes, quarterback Josh Hoover and tight end Jared Wiley discuss their 42-17 win over the Baylor Bears in the Bluebonnet Battle.
www.texasfootball.com
"It was just what this was supposed to look like," TCU head coach Sonny Dykes said.
The only thing that could stop TCU's offense was TCU, which they did twice in the red zone in the first quarter on a fumble and failed fourth-down conversion. Aside from that, they didn't punt all game. Josh Hoover had a career game, completing 24-of-29 attempts for 412 yards and two touchdowns. Most importantly, he didn't turn the ball over.
On the defensive side, the Horned Frogs forced four turnovers on downs in the second half to allow the offense to run away with the game. It was the complimentary football TCU's been seeking all season. Now, they can extend a year many thought was lost next week with a win against Oklahoma.
"I wish we had seven games left," Dykes said. "But we need to go win next week so we have at least one more."

At least one more?TCU's 42-17 win conveys the season that could've been in Fort Worth, and condemns the calamitous two-year fall from grace in Waco.TCU bullies Baylor in Bluebonnet Battle, what now?

Was there a flag thrown in the second half? Seemed like very few penalties all game.

this aged very well!
Our interior OL really struggles to create any openings. Our red zone struggles at least are partly related to that.

No, they stopped doing that during COVID, along with announcing the plays in the press box.
