ODB MAILBAG 10/13!

By BearNTex@BearNTex Oct 13, 2017, 9:35am CDT

It’s just another day to me, but there was no way I wasn’t gonna drop the mailbag on Friday the 13th.

On to the questions!

Bohanon is still the #1 target, but it is interesting that Louisville commit Jordan Travis was offered last week. Make out of it what you will.

How shall we celebrate the 1st win? Should we sit down and be humble? Or jump up and act like fools?

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I’ll be like

Who wins Big XII in CBB this year?
— BearUpBU (@BearUpBU) October 11, 2017

Baylor, WV, Texas, and TCU will be tough. I’d love to say our Bears, but I have to go with Kansas. That is, if they don’t get tripped up.

Aside from an actual win, what would you consider the most ideal outcome for this Saturday?
— Hunter Ry ️erg (@hunter_ryberg) October 11, 2017

TCU losing and OU beating UT (but Mayfield only having 104 yds/NoTD’s/3Picks). That’d be ok.

Who you got going to the CFB playoffs?
— Zach Kielty (@ZachKielty) October 12, 2017

Alabama, ~~Clemson~~, Penn State, and ~~Washington State~~. Welp...

Do we win by 17 or 20 on Saturday?

18.5

What is the most exciting @BaylorWBB of the upcoming season?
— Sara Davis (@SaraBear_g) October 11, 2017

Game? Other than playing for the natty against UCONN, it’s pretty awesome that we have Stanford at home on 12/3. Well, either that or Tarleton.

Player? You gotta love

Who wins in an Oklahoma drill? LaQuan McGowan or Bray Roy?
— Xavi (@boricuaXavi) October 11, 2017

No disrespect to Bray (who almost broke my arm giving me a high five one time), but LaQ’s got the size, strength, speed, and feet.

OHState friend says BU will never compete consistently at that (OSU/AL) level w/o some sort of gimmick (eg Briles offense). Thoughts?
— Alan Bennett (@EAlanB) October 11, 2017

Sounds like he’s assuming that we will always have lesser talent or players that can’t be coached up, or coaches that can’t coach. Could OSU/AL consistently compete without the 4/5 star athletes? Does coaching matter? Exhibit A: Are they back? Hint:

Dunno, but

So far we're the only Big 12 team Mason Rudolph has yet to beat. What do you see happening this weekend?
— Patrick Quinn (@ArtilleryBear91) October 11, 2017

We need to keep that streak alive.

Was the knee injury to Galitz on his kicking leg?
— Gary Hummel (@GH6236) October 11, 2017

I’d have to look at the video again, but I think it was the other leg. Don't @ me if I’m wrong!

Given history of program (90’s-2000’s), is it a good or bad thing fans are holding the FB program/Rhule to such a high standard out of gate?
— Kyle Starnes (@K_Star19) October 11, 2017

With what CMR walked into, while basically losing a recruiting class, and is expected to win right away...all I can say is

If u had to sacrifice 1/3 yard for every pound you added to your punter (starting at Drew Galitz's 205), which BU player would you have punt
— Simon Phillip Thomas (@WhoisSimon) October 11, 2017

My assumption is that lighter is better. That would be Tevor White at 165lbs. So, we’d have a +13 yards before he ever kicked the ball. I would hope he could at least make contact.

Are we going to manage to keep our consecutive bowl streak alive. Thought so after 0U; not so sure after K-State.
— Michael Grady (@papagrady) October 11, 2017

Yes?
