As I’m sure everyone predicted, yesterday’s much-anticipated matchup between Baylor and Kansas spawned a number of memorable tweets. The purpose of this post, as always, is to catalogue those tweets. Buckle up, my friends.*
*I have to apologize once again for the fact that these will probably be out of chronological order. Twitter stopped organizing them that way earlier this year, and I have no idea why.
Look good. Feel good. Play good. Let's do this. #SicKU pic.twitter.com/5O4YSXYrBn

The Baylor-Kansas #ToiletBowl is living up to the hype as Baylor appears to have folding chairs rather than benches pic.twitter.com/qx2RWVJKtU

Being forced to watch our running game should be considered an Eighth Amendment violation.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
I had a lot to say about our running game early in yesterday’s contest.
I HAVE AN IDEA -- DON'T RUN IT STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE ON FIRST AND SECOND DOWN THIS TIME.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
Our rushing offense is a choose-your-own-adventure game where every choice leads to <YOU RUN DIRECTLY INTO UNBLOCKED DEFENDERS>
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
Silly Jayhawks. Everybody knows our offense only works when we're trailing. Got you right where we want y-- POWER RUN TIME.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
These two teams would have a "shoot yourself in the foot" contest and end up killing each other.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
Does it say something that quite a few of our best players are true freshmen?
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
I’m thinking probably.
KU rented those bad boys from Celebration Party Rental over on Locust St. Come to Celebration Party Rentals for all your gameday needs.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
This was the next thing that really caught my eye.
Alabama probably has a Sideline Seating Coordinator that used to work for the Patriots and Kansas gives opposing teams folding chairs.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
More like QBae, am I right?
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
Genius is rarely recognized in its own time.
That would be 10 straight completions for Charlie Brewer with his 25-yard strike to Jordan Feuerbacher. Baylor up 14-3, 7:03 left 1st half.
— Tim Griffin (@TimGriffinBig12) November 4, 2017
If this was NBA Jam, he would have been on fire.
I need a gif of KU unveiling a bright blue banner with white letters that says "BROWN."
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
I KNOW IT WAS THE DUDE’S NAME, BUT IT WAS A FUNNY IMAGE, OK?
We're living in an alternate universe where Baylor's coach wears short sleeves exclusively and the defense is kinda fun to watch.
— Amy Pagitt (@AmyGrahamPagitt) November 4, 2017
We took our Little Tikes basketball goal to Lawrence, but they don't have actual benches on the sideline smh

Methinks Baylor is taking eight weeks of aggression out on the poor Jayhawks.
— Tim Griffin (@TimGriffinBig12) November 4, 2017
I have so many ?'s about this Baylor kiddie hoop celebration:
— Raheel, ESPN 97.5 FM (@The_Raheel) November 4, 2017
1. Did Baylor travel with this and bring it out for the game?
2. If not, does Kansas just have extra goals laying around at the stadium?
3. If so, who agreed to let Baylor have fun??
4. Why am I watching this game? pic.twitter.com/F0VrhmCJjY
These are all excellent questions. As far as I can tell, the answers are:
- Yes.
- N/A.
- I did.
- Because you used the remote control on your television to select the channel on which this game was playing and then left the game on your television (or, alternatively, you chose the game on the FOXSportsGO app on your computer or other device).

I purposefully put this one in out of order so you would see the play first.
TOUCHDOWN, ISHMAIL WAINRIGHT!!!!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
BREAKING: #Baylor has two TE who've caught TD's.
— David Smoak (@DavidSmoak) November 4, 2017
Former men's basketball player Ishmail Wainright (@Wainright24) had more TDs today than Kansas's entire time.
— OurDailyBears (@OurDailyBears) November 4, 2017
I meant “team,” obviously.
The last time Kansas and Baylor matched up in basketball, Ish Wainwright had four points. Just scored six against the football Jayhawks.
— Kevin Flaherty (@KFlaherty247) November 4, 2017
That felt good Baylor Nation !
— Ishmail C. Wainright (@Wainright24) November 4, 2017
I Love You BAYLOR Nation

Baylor's storied run as the greatest 0-8 team in CFB history is officially over.
— David Ubben (@davidubben) November 4, 2017
The Streak is OVER. Baylor wins behind Charlie Brewer, solid D, freshman firsts.
— Craig Smoak (@CraigSmoak) November 4, 2017
Congrats to Matt Rhule on his first #Baylor win..patience required, but he WILL turn this around in Waco
— Rich Cirminiello (@RichCirminiello) November 4, 2017
Lots of freshman firsts today:
— Craig Smoak (@CraigSmoak) November 4, 2017
Brewer - 1st start, 300-yd game
Hand - 1st INT
Pitre - 1st sack
Holmes - 1st TD
Most important: 1st Win

Hard work pays off @BUFootball
Shut out the noise and Keep working #SicEm
It was the first time ever that Baylor, in a road game, has held a Big 12 opponent without a TD.
— Jesse Newell (@jessenewell) November 4, 2017
Art Briles’s teams never did that.
#Baylor fans: Don’t let this game distract you from the fact that Texas lost to Kansas in football last year in Lawrence.
— Austin Staton (@AStaton) November 4, 2017
All season #Baylor has been the nail, today they've been the hammer against Kansas and won all three phases of this game.
— David Smoak (@DavidSmoak) November 4, 2017
BAYLOR!!!! Great to see those guys, the coaching staff, the university get their first win! Congrats @CoachMattRhule
— Bryce Petty (@b_petty14) November 4, 2017
FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!! BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIN BEARS WIIIIIIIIIN!!!!!!!!!! pic.twitter.com/nk8rCNm91Q
— Peter Pope (@pbpope) November 4, 2017
It sure is comforting to know that in a rebuilding season, our worst in decades, we still didn’t lose to Kansas in Lawrence in football.

Finally, after the game I asked Baylor fans on Twitter to send me their favorite gifs for the occasion:
Give me your favorite BEARS WIN gifs for that post I'm definitely maybe writing later today. #SicEm
