"The hotter the heat the harder the steel, no pressure no diamonds, we compete we win....WE ARE BAYLOR"
Robert Griffin III came in in 2008 to Baylor University. He started his first year as a true freshmen! In his first year he was surprising and earned the trophy of best freshmen in the Big Ten!! He came into 2009 with high hopes of bringing his team to the next level he sadly had to sit out the 2009 season due to a heartbreaking injury to his ACL. He was granted a redshirt for his 2010 season. . According to the bylaws, players who are injured after playing less than 30 percent of the season may be eligible (Griffin was injured during game three of 12 of the 2009 season, with 25 percent of the season completed). But unfortunately Baylor finished the season 7-6. Now the 2011 season is where we when he became a houshold name! If you watched football or even knew what it was, you knew who the amazing RG3 was!!! At the start of the 2011 season he started racking up stats!! The bears werent expected to do well this season, and started off the season with 15th ranked TCU!! To everyones surprise the Bears jumped out to a 47-23 lead!And were able to fight off a comeback after TCU gained the lead 48-47 briefly, only for Baylor to kick the game winning field goal and win 50-48!!They pulled off the upset in large part to Griffin's performance, who passed for 359 yards, 5 touchdowns and a 77.8% completion percentage. Griffin was considered by many to be a Heisman Trophy candida. After a bye week, Baylor shut out Stephen F. Austin State University 48-0 and Griffin went 20 of 22 (90.9%) for 247 yards and 3 touchdowns and ran for 78 yards. In week 4, Griffin ushered Baylor to their third win, beating Rice University 56-31. Griffin completed 29 of 33 passes (87.9%) for 338 yards with 51 yards rushing and a touchdown.In week five, against Kansas St. Griffin almost brought the bears to their fourth win, but lost 36-35 to Kansas St. completing 23 out of 31 (74.2%) for 346 yards, five touchdowns, and one interception.
