From the comment section
“It was very impressive. Let the games begin! Wreck ‘em! Ŧ”
“Welcome to the 806 and Red Raider Nation!!”
“Just a little worried about WVU… but Big 12 championship game against BYU in Dallas will be scary.”
“Ok this makes sense .... He is definitely more deserving of this award but Bailey will probably win it over him ....”
