The post RG3 began Sunday night with the Bears
crushing former SWC rival SMU 59-24.
The honor to take over the starting quarterback
position goes to Nick Florence, who received and encouraging text for Griffin
before the game."He just told me to be myself," Florence said. "I learned a lot from (Griffin). He's done a lot for our program. Just because he leaves, doesn't mean anything different happens here."
What happened was the Baylor offense looked just as good as last year. Florence final numbers against the SMU was impressive completing 21 of 30 passes for 341 yards and four touchdowns.
"I thought it was a good performance, but I want to get better.” Florence said. “I wanted zero incompletions. I thought it was a great first start, but I want to keep getting better. I had a blast out there."
"Nick was Nick, and that's what you are going to love about him.” Baylor head coach Art Briles said. “He's an intelligent, passionate, driven player that places himself second.”
