Video: Texas-sized slobberknocker between Longhorns, Baylor Bears
Baylor got their backsides handed to them by Texas in Saturday’s first quarter.
The Longhorns led 17-0 at the end of the first quarter. A hard hit by a Baylor defender may or may not have come after the whistle, a Texas player retaliated and then we got a benches-clearing brawl, baseball style.
Two things about this were pretty funny:
- Check out the Baylor coach with both arms extended, running back and forth in front of a wave of charging Bears players, as if he could get all of them to stop at once.
- The Texas player who threw off his helmet and threw up his fists looks pretty hilarious in the aftermath. But he’s lucky he didn’t get clocked. Why not leave your helmet on?

Baylor players have reason to be upset.That was really, really late. But not that hard of a hit. Clearing the bench? Come on.

After the brawl, the only penalty officials hand out is an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Kevin Vaccaro. Way late hit on Hawthorne.

Dude took his helmet off and threw up his fists actin all crazy and as soon as a hoard approached him he out his fists down and grabbed his helmet real fast. Hahahaha! What an idiot. You just made yourself look real chicken on national TV. Shouldn’t be fighting to begin with but if you’re going to try to get all big and bad like that you can’t just immediately change your mind and act like you were just messing around. If you’re going to act like that you might as well go down swinging.
I don’t understand Texas..They beat Oklahoma and now they beat Baylor…Why are they 5-7? Does Charlie Strong reward them with a Bowl Game? This is a tough one..I wanna say yes he should, but they still finished with a loosing record (even with a bowl win)..
The guy was making a tackle, ESPN shows it from in front,too. Defender didn’t know it was dead. Then they descend upon him like coyotes on an injured deer, Strong has no control of his players, ridiculous. BigXII, exceedingly overrated.
And Ubben is a moron, a guy comes off the sideline with no helmet to shove an active player then they gang up on him, of course the come to help.
Weak brawl, too. Memphis, BYU, now those guys were scrappin.
