BAYLOR USES TEAM PHOTO DAY TO TROLL THE HELL OUT OF TCU

HEY TCU PULL OUT THE MAGNIFYING GLASS

Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports

Team picture day is an important part of preseason preparation, where players and coaches come together to say "this is the group we hope will become a part of college football history this year." Baylor is one of those teams hoping to write a new chapter in the sport's legacy in 2015.

Hardworking young men, dedicated to improving upon a great 2014. Each of them enters the year full of hope, anticipation, and - wait, hold on.

Can we get that just a little closer?

OH ART BRILES THAT'S MORE SALT THAN MOST PEOPLE CONSUME IN A YEAR. YOU HAVE CURED IODINE DEFICIENCY THROUGHOUT THE WORLD WITH THIS ONE ACT OF PHOTOGRAPHIC KNIFE-TWISTING. It's only going to get worse when Baylor hires the refs from last year's game to sing the national anthem this season.

UPDATE: Baylor's associate AD says this was all just a coincidence.

Is he telling the truth? Baylor has two seniors on the roster that are 6'5 - Jarell Broxton (#61) and Desmine Hilliard (#67). They have four seniors listed at 6'6 - Pat Colbert (#69), Blake Muir (#73), Gus Penning (#15), and Spencer Drango (#58). That's a one in eight chance that this happened "on accident." And how many penalties did TCU have called against them in last year's game?

We're officially calling bullshit on the "circumstantial" claim, Baylor.

FURTHER UPDATE: Well, damn.
