Coach
Art Briles' system works. Plug
and play almost anyone into
this No. 1 ranked offense and
it seemingly rolls on as evident
in Baylor's big bowl victory
over North Carolina with most
of their offensive stars injured.
The top two quarterbacks missed
parts of this past season. Both
Russell and Stidham should be
ready to go for next fall and
compete with Heisman passing
numbers. There may be no better
1-2 running back punch in the
nation with Linwood and Jefferson.
The problem is an offensive
line that will be almost completely
gutted while the defensive front
goes through a similar overhaul.
If Baylor can square up the
line of scrimmage, the scoreboard
sparks will continue to keep
the Bears in playoff discussions.
