Texas Christian 14 - 0 Mississippi (6:23 left in 1st Quarter)

Well, that was pretty easy.  Texas Christian takes 15 plays to go the length of the field and score its second touchdown of the day.  Aaron Green gets his second touchdown of the day on a 15-yard run where he was basically untouched.

Ole Miss looks completely overwhelmed and outclassed.  Look at the stats for the two quarterbacks:

Bo Wallace (Ole Miss):  0-4, 0 yards, 1 interception
Trevone Boykin (Texas Christian):  8-9, 54 yards

There's no doubt in my mind that if Baylor and Texas Christian never got the national respect that they deserved this year.  If the Texas Christian players, and their coach, were all at Austin playing for the University of Texas, they would have been taken much more seriously.  And the circus-like nature of Baylor's 61-58 win over Texas Christian -- a game that lasted almost 4 1/2 hours and featured pretty much no defense -- hurt the reputation of both the Bears and the Horned Frogs.  But it's already clear that Ole Miss -- not the best team in the SEC, but a solid team with a decent record -- doesn't even belong on the same field with Texas Christian.
