“They’re just outstanding. This team, Baylor’s squad is one of the best offensive teams in the country and they’re so explosive. We were trying to keep them in check, and ... (had) somewhat the first half and then the dam broke.” - Mark Adams after his team’s loss against Baylor in their last game.

“A hell of a Big 12 game. It was a battle like we anticipated against a team who I think is certainly one of the top 20, if not higher, teams in the country, even without the preseason conference player of the year. They’re deep. They’re fast. They’re athletic. But our guys met the challenge today.” - Mike Boynton after his team’s win against TCU in their last game.
