    My ass is prepared to take the length. Either Kyle Trask wins the heisman tonight, or we get fucked in the face. I expect the latter. 

    He's doing great man, this offense is just awesome. Can't wait to see EJ leading it next year.

    Hope every Longhorn is rooting for the Gators right now, it's the only way aggy is left out. They will claim a national championship for making the CFP

    He never used the word “guarantee.”

    Saying “after we win” and titling the article with “guarantee” is completely different.

    Fucking stupid ass fansided writer.

    He’s gonna wind up in Houston. Draft him early, put him with Omenihue and Watt and trade Watt after a couple of years because he’s the most injury prone badass on the face of the planet.

    Pretty sure Boob traded away all the Toxins picks for the next couple years

    Not even slightly mad at this news. Dude balled, and pretty much earned every second of playing time, and earned whatever level he gets drafted at.  Hope he goes as high as possible in the 1st..... but wouldnt be sad if he fell to the 6-9th pick of the 2nd round when Dallas could pick him up

    Condemn him to the Cowboys? Evil

    MSU had DL drafted 2 years ago. One of whom beat the shit out of a girl while in HS. A shame he wasn't considering teams in our conference because it lacked prestige.

    Last year the Big 12 had more off ball LBs drafted in the 1st rd than any other conference. I guess that makes us the home of LB play. No?

    You are right

    Maybe so with the LBs, makes sense because the hurry up offenses in the big12 don't allow for big giant DEs to do as well as fast LBs that can cover

    Something that is becoming more valuable in the NFL, versatility at the LB spot.

    I have been working this morning so haven't read a bunch of this thread and this may have already been posted but the main reason offenses tend to be so good in the Big 12 is because there are no holding calls.  With no holding calls on the OL the QB's can pick apart the defenses.  You see the same thing in the NFL.  The Patriots-Eagles Super Bowl a few years ago had like zero holding calls even though both teams were holding.  This lead to both teams scoring at will.  Don't allow OU to hold every play and see how great their QB's look going forward.  

    yup

    Which is why other teams also play more pro style power football, because their QBs would get smashed passing every single play like all the big12 teams do.

    Are you talking about Bama, and sometimes Georgia/LSU or the entirety of the SEC? Cuz plenty of the programs have DLs that fucking suck

    Of course those 3 have pretty stacked DLs

    Florida

    Auburn

    Then even Mississippi State had 3 DL drafted last year, including two first rounders. 

    The big 12 had like 3 or 4 DL drafted last year total.

    Didn't ESPN or Big Noon show that this year the conference with the least yards allowed per game is the BIG12? Other conferences did not play offense and now that they are playing our style of offense their defenses are learning.

    Not sure

    Other conferences did play offense this whole time, maybe it didn't look as flashy as big 12 offenses, but that is partially because it was also about ball control and TOP. The big 12 was just about scoring, partially because every game is a shootout, and partially because the defenses are so bad you can just get down the field with ease and score.

    I don't think the consensus was ever that the offenses were horrible in the ACC, Big 10, and SEC. It was always that those leagues where somewhat balanced. There has never been balance in the big12, it's got it's own brand of football. High-scoring, hurry up spread offenses, and shitty defense. 

    I guess the question is are the big 12 offenses just that good or are the defenses really really bad? I think it's a bit of both, but having that lack of balance hurts the big two programs in the league.

    The ACC was dead garbage 8 years ago. Seems they have a program in their crap conference who shares their state with an SEC program who's doing okay for themselves.

    And you played yourself again with another post. 

    "The Big 12 can't play defense like the SEC. To prove that point here's a quote where someone points out Nick Saban said you can't really play defense anywhere anymore."

    You're not a very bright guy. 

    The ACC was dead garbage 8 years ago... except the ACC team that won the national championship in 2013, then sent a team to the CFP the next year.

    You forgetting crab legs?

    The ACC isn't notorious for a playing style that doesn't include defense. The big 12 is, and blowU usually goes and shows that off every year in the CFP. Then everyone reaffirms their point that the big 12 doesn't play any defense, and defensive recruits go find somewhere else to exhibit their talents.

    The Big 12 can't play defense like the SEC, the ACC, or the Big 10. Look at the players each league is sending to the NFL or the eye test on those DL, it's a different ball game.

    That wasn't your argument, that Big 12 teams don't play good defense... your argument was as to why that is, and I just don't fully agree with you.

    Your point completely ignores that we also don't happen to be getting the best offensive talent anymore, either. Is it because of weak targeting calls and poor defense that we're not getting the best linemen anymore, also?

    No on the OL thing

    But why do you think big 12 teams don't play defense?
