Robert Griffin III to Return to BPS as Part of Broadcast Crew for Baylor Game
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State will be looking to stay undefeated this Saturday as the 4-0 Baylor Bears come to town for a Big 12 showdown. The Cowboys are ranked No. 19 in the AP, with the Bears checking in at No. 21. The Cowboys are currently 3.5-point favorites and will be looking to make it two-straight against the Bears.
It was announced on Monday that former Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III would be returning to Stillwater as part of the ESPN broadcast crew for the Baylor game this Saturday.
The last time RGIII was in Boone Pickens Stadium, things didn’t go too well for him. Sure, he put up 425 passing yards and two touchdowns, one on the ground, but he also threw two interceptions and fumbled the ball once. Oh, and the Cowboys rolled to a 59-24 win over the Bears. It marked the sixth-straight win over the Bears, and the second-straight over RGIII.
The year before, the Cowboys held RGIII to just 267 yards through the air, while putting up 725 yards of total offense. Brandon Weeden posted 435 yards passing yards and three touchdowns, while the Pokes combined for 290 yards on the ground.
In those two games against Baylor, 2010 and 2011, Oklahoma State posted 1,326 yards of total offense. Sheesh.
Kickoff for the 2021 edition of Oklahoma State-Baylor is scheduled for 6 p.m., with the game being aired on ESPN2.
