Blake Shapen had a bad game on Saturday. At 18-28 passing for just 137 yards and a score, Baylor understood Shapen was having an off day and simply stopped throwing the ball. The Bears carried the pigskin 52 times. Shapen did not run the ball for a positive gain once. That is concerning.
However, every football player has those games. The outside noise crept into Shapen's head against BYU, and he blinked. But that's going to happen. A young, relatively inexperienced quarterback who had never seen that type of atmosphere is meant to struggle. Don't think for a moment that it surprised Dave Aranda or his staff. These goes know their personnel.
So where does Baylor go from here? Well they ride Blake Shapen into the sunset, still. He hasn't lost his stripes or made the staff question his skill as a quarterback. He had a bad day. You probably had like three bad days at your work last week. I know I did. And neither of us had 65,000 people screaming at us to do poorly.
