Big 12 Week 1 Scouting Reports, Part 1
Среда, августа 31, 2011Goodbye, offseason. Hello, football.
The 2011 season is finally within sight. While these past seven months have felt like a lifetime, the next four or five will likely be gone in the blink of an eye. With a nine-game conference schedule, non-conference games are cut from four to three, but they’re all still vitally important. Losses mean more in college football than any American sport, and teams especially want to avoid being eliminated from the national title hunt in the season’s first week. In the opening half of our weekly scouting reports, we take a look at the Big 12’s first five teams in alphabetical order. Included is the conference’s game of the week, a rivalry matchup between the Baylor Bears and the TCU Horned Frogs. While many other teams have cupcakes on the schedule during the season’s first week, Art Briles and Robert Griffin may face their stiffest defensive challenge of the season.
