It’s time to retire the RVO.

Baylor football offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes’ patented “Reliable Violent Offense” led the Bears to new heights in his first year in 2021, culminating in a Big 12 championship and a Sugar Bowl victory. But with a new-look offensive line and running back room — and six games of data — it’s clear the Bears need to make a change.

Texas Tech entered the game as the 83rd-ranked rushing defense in the country, allowing 148.0 rushing yards per game against a schedule that includes a Group of Five team (Wyoming), an FCS team (Tarleton State) and Houston, who might as well be one too.
