Letters to the editor

Briles thanks students

On behalf of the Baylor foot- ball program, thank you for the incredible passion and en- ergy you have brought to Floyd Casey Stadium throughout the 2010 season. You have been a huge part of the success of this year’s team. It has been uplift- ing for me and the players to see your support and hear your cheers from the sidelines. We’ve got one more chance for you to cheer on your Baylor Bears at Floyd Casey Stadium this season, and that comes this Saturday night against the Oklahoma Sooners in a game that will be televised nation- ally on ESPN2 at 7 p.m. So dress in gold, fill the stands and be loud as we look to send off our seniors the right way with a win over the Sooners! This senior class has shown great passion, belief and com- mitment in bringing you a winning football season and bowl berth. I am proud of each of them and hopefully you are as well. I am grateful for the support you’ve given the team this fall, and look forward to seeing you in the stands this weekend! Thank you again for helping create a true home field advan- tage for your Bears at The Case in 2010!

Sic ’Em Bears!
