I wasn't able to watch much TV on Saturday, but I did manage to catch the first quarter of OU-Baylor. Lost in the shuffle of that massacre was a pretty solid game plan from Baylor: an Oregon State-esque mix of quick screens, quarterback draws and misdirection plays designed to turn Oklahoma's defensive speed against itself. Baylor's inferior players didn't execute the scheme very well, but UT's Colt McCoy, Quan Cosby, Jordan Shipley and company are more than up to the task if the Longhorns take a similar approach on Saturday at Fair Park. Mack Brown, you might want to pick the brain of your buddy Art Briles.It's getting harder by the week for me to get excited about the Pac-10 as ASU's collapse intensifies and nobody in the rest of the Pac can seem to buy a non-conference win. (Stellar effort, there, Stanford and OSU.) To make matters worse, those dreaded Arizona Wildcats are starting to look halfway competent. This Sun Devil is already pining for basketball season to start.
