Baylor looking for more explosive plays downfield
Have you ever lit a firework expecting to see a cacophony of pyrotechnics, only to watch in puzzlement as the fuse fizzles and nothing happens?

To phrase the question in another way: Have you watched the 2020 Baylor Bears on offense?

Explosive plays have been scarce for Baylor this season. The offense has unfolded like a mine field filled with duds. On the season, the Bears rank 72nd nationally in long plays from scrimmage. They’ve produced 41 plays on offense that have traveled at least 10 yards, eight that have gone 20 yards or more, two that have spanned 30 yards, and not a one that has covered 40 yards-plus.

What happens when a stoppable force meets a moveable object?
That is exactly what we have coming up, at least on paper.
.
Baylor's offense is tied for #77 on plays of 30+ yards (2) and tied for dead last with zero plays of 40+ yards. TCU's defense, OTOH, is tied for #92 on plays of 30+ yards (17) and tied for...wait for it...dead last with 14 plays of 40+ yards.

Either some will finally starting improving (.except for 2004 TCU has improved greatly on defense as the year went on), or it will be a really, really boring game. Three yards and a cloud of rubber and plastic. Ugh.

Good over/under for this game. How many gains of 40+ yards?
