Were there two other people we would miss more? Young and Coleman? Pick out the two players we couldn't afford to lose and we lost them.
Let's assume for a second they are both out for an extended period. I realize that Briles is talking about Billings coming back soon, but he is never candid about injuries.
First, I am more worried about the loss of Billings. With Billings out there is a recipe now - run it down Baylor's throat. WVU in the 2nd half and ISU most of the game. It works. No one has been effective replacing him. Someone better step up or or get Billings well or OU will kill us.
I have a lot of faith in Stidham and Briles. I saw what Briles did with Florence. If he can do it with Florence he can do it with a talent like Jarrett or a project like CJ. I think our offense will be fine. In fact, I think Stidham is going to do great. My only concern is the crowds in Manhattan and Fort Worth.
