I am well aware of the fact that the No. 1 alabama crimson tide is making their way to austin this weekend with arguably the greatest coach in college football leading them into DKR. I am well aware of the fact that the reigning heisman trophy winner is on their team and has ample weapons to throw to. I am well aware of the fact that Texas is almost a three td underdog at home for a game that will be nationally televised.
If you're using that as evidence that Texas not only won't win but wont compete this saturday and are asking those around you to manage expectations.
well
Here's why Texas is going to win:
-The Bama defensive line is stout, there's no questioning that, but if anything we've learned through recent years of 1) UT fotoball and 2) Kyle Flood that Texas plays phonebooth games decently well. The last time they played a phonebooth game, they won over KSU where all the quarterbacks on the field had hard ceilings. Is KSU bama? no. Are players like Hayden Conner, Kelvin Banks, and Cole Hutson better served by going forward? Yes. Then you add in Bijan Robinson, who's going to spray mustard all over the crimson turds.
-Quinn Ewers is going to ball out. If you don't believe this, then I have little else to say. The last time Quinn was in a situation like the one he faces Saturday, he led Southlake Carroll over Duncanville. I know it doesn't translate cleanly, I dont give that much of a fuck, but this is a winner at quarterback. A winner who can pass the fucking football better than anyone we seem to have had in the past decade. Get on board.
-This isn't the best Alabama offense. Bryce Young may disagree, and sure, whatever, fine. Compared to previous Bama offenses, they are 1) not as explosive 2) not as dominannt in the trenches and 3) utilizing a good, not great RB room. If anything, this will be a bama offense that tries to move the ball down the field in a process rather than in one play. That means more margin for error for Bill O Buttfuck to buttfuck their offense. Give me DeMarvion on Fatu all day, he's a Fatu fuck.
-The Pole Assassin is on our side. If she is with us, who can be against us? Plus her husband is going to help us on special teams, an area that isn't a huge weakness for Bama like it was on Saban teams of years past, but one that is weaker for them because we made ours stronger with Gia Monkey's stepfather.
-I dunno about Dallas Turner and Will Anderson. I can only pump so much sunshine.
This is an irrational board that does irrational things on an irrationally regular basis. We are beating bama. Join or die. Hook 'Em.
