Baylor alums, not speaking for the university, took out several full page ads in state newspapers thanking Art Briles.
Some may be furious, but there is divided opinion amongst them, which is shocking.
For some, watching football is a leisure activity because football is entertaining.
For others, watching football is a religious act, because football is an idol to be worshipped and protected at any cost.
Baylor has a lot of alums. Some will do anything to see their team play in the big game.
