      @Jayhawk_69 We tend to get excited after a big win and think we're invincible! Look at BYU for example. I'm glad they lost but suddenly what I assumed was a decent chance to beat UCF looks much more difficult!

        I think we are getting ahead of ourselves with bowl talk at this point, let’s just focus on going down to Fort Worth and competing for a win.

            Yahoo sports has just announced Dave Aranda is out at Baylor after embarrassing loss to Kansas. Guess we are back to the pre Liepold era on that front lol.

              I’ll add in it’s pretty wild to see a coach that is 4-3 overall and 2-2 in conference get canned. Not sure I’ve seen that beforehand. They probably figured they made a bowl and didn’t want to fire him after such but man.

                Losing to TCU last week and getting boo'd out of the stadium was the final nail for Aranda according to their fanbase. Yesterday was just the excuse to get a head start on the search.

                  @Texas-Hawk-10 I’ve never understood firing a guy early, you can start your list and do checks on coaches while he is still there. No coach is leaving to come in the middle of the season.

                    @rockchalkjayhawk Didn't this happen years ago when we beat Nebraska or someone?

                      Okay, Google AI says no. But close, at Texas:

                      "Charlie Strong (Texas, 2016): Strong's Longhorns suffered a shocking 24-21 overtime loss to Kansas on November 19, 2016. While reports immediately leaked that he would be let go, Texas officials chose to wait until after their final regular-season game against TCU a week later to officially announce his firing."

                        Wow, Baylor, you know, whom we beat last week goes to UCF, you know who beat undefeated 2nd ranked BYU last week, and well Baylor is beating the daylights out of them. 41-9 with 8 minutes left. So really, we're maybe better than BYU and well, we'll probably lose to UCF next week.
