For a team that relies heavily on the pass (ave. 221 in the air vs. 106 on the ground), losing your leading WR doesn't help against the #2 team in the nation.
Use it as you see fit. I'm on the OU 1st half -20, a large play for me.

The Baylor Bears aren?t doing themselves any favors to help them cover the 36-point spread today against Oklahoma. On Friday, head coach Guy Morriss suspended five players for an unspecified violation of team rules, leaving the Bears shorthanded against No. 2 Oklahoma.
Starting wide receiver Dominique Zeigler is the most notable of the five players who will sit out today?s game. Zeigler is Baylor?s leading receiver with 55 catches, 536 yards and five touchdowns this season. Also suspended are backup safety Kyle Seals, reserve safety Nick Fellows, redshirt freshman wide receiver Derrick Jones and reserve safety Brannan Moton.
"These suspensions are immediate and indefinite," Morriss told the Dallas Morning News. "At present, they are still members of our program."
The suspensions are the last thing the beleaguered Bears need heading into today?s contest. Baylor is already forced to start redshirt freshman quarterback Terrance Parks because original starter Dane King and backup Shawn Bell are both out with broken hands.
Parks came in last game against Oklahoma State after Bell was injured, and threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns against one interception.
Parks is the third QB to start for Baylor this season and the seventh in the last three years.
