  1. That was a strange response. That was a team that lost their offensive identity to the draft (Rojo and Bijan) and were a dropped TD pass from taking the lead in the 4Q. Texas defense has improved since then. The offense is completely different with AD Mitchell in it. Then there is the improvement at QB. How much improvement did a 30 year old Penix make from year 5 to year 6 playing, compared to Ewers going from year 1 to year 2?
  2. WR talent in the this game is crazy. IF you included Sanders (TE), there are 6 NFL pass catchers out there. I think this game comes down to wo can disrupt the passer. Texas is vastly improved on offense from last year. Adding AD Mitchell has been a game changer and Quinn is in his second year as a starter. Should be a good game.
  3. You are one narcissistic SOB. I think Jack Daniels ended his USC career. This "we ended" shit is just stupid.. The guy is in the playoffs, so I think he is doing fine.
  4. Blue is Keilan Robinson, without the special teams benefit at this point..
  5. Oddly, I think we have seen more 2 Back sets since Brooks went down. I think all of the explosive runs the last 2 weeks came out of that. Sark adding a little more misdirection. When Keilan or Blue get open lanes, they aren’t getting caught
  6. This is one of the few teams in the country that can match WR talent with Texas.. This will be the biggest test for the secondary this season.
  7. Texas is a base nickel team. They are in nickel the vast majority of the time. Texas has what I will call the spread nickel, where they bring in Mo Blackwell to replace Hill for coverage reasons. I was just suggesting putting Derek Williams there. He is at least as physical and is a better coverage guy
  8. I am not sure about that. Brooks had his best game as Longhorn vs Washington in the bowl game. You could argue Maalik Muhammad is more suited to play vs Washington than Watts. He arguably plays the ball better than any other CB and Washington will throw deep jump balls often. This game will be more about coverage, than physicality. This would be an interesting game for PK to install some dime. Maybe simply swap out Blackwell for Derek Williams
  9. Is AD Mitchell the first player to play for 2 different teams in the college playoffs?
  10. https://sportsbook.draftkings.com/leagues/football/ncaaf?category=futures&subcategory=to-make-the-playoffs Draftkings has it between FSU and Bama for the last spot. Texas as the 2nd highest odds to win the title
  11. I think the committee has 2 choices 1. The go by resume. That would be Wash, Mich, Texas, and FSU 2 They go by eye test…. Wash, Mich, Texas, and Bama
  12. This makes no sense. Committee had Oregon over Texas, so Bama will jump Texas. The committee had Texas over Bama also.. So it only matters in the Oregon case, but not the Bama case?
  13. They have mentioned the 25 starts thing, but if he gets to the Championship game he is at 23. I am not sure 2 starts will hold him back. I think this situation is fluid.
  14. Actually thought the same. Quinn was almost too good.
  15. He extended plays. Got through his progressions. Best Quinn as looked..
  16. that is his job, so understandable. Yormark should be on ESPN pumping Texas
  17. That is better than ending up next to 13-0 Washington and 13-0 Georgia
  18. It’s simple. Undefeated teams get a spot. 2 loss Oregon is out, but undefeated Washington is in. That is a spot taken up. Washington is 100% in over Texas, there is no argument. Oregon was probably 90% in, but there was an argument. Washington won, that wasn’t good for Texas. Not a big hit either. Georgia winning is worse. There is 0 argument for Texas to get in over Georgia. There is actually a really good argument for Texas to get in over Bama. FSU losing is the best result and most likely. Michigan would be a great result, but highly unlikely. This is really simple.

    Texas RB Talk

    Wrong or right, I am discounting the Tech game. The OL absolutely dominated from about the 2Q on. Speed is going to look very good in a game like that.

    Texas RB Talk

    Next year will be interesting. Baxter needs to work on contact balance and picking his feet up in the hole. I dont think Blue is every down RB in an offense that relies on inside zone.. Sounds like Brooks is unlikely to be back. Bobby has been extremely high on Christian Clark, since the beginning..
  21. I have seen him tip-toe at times between the tackles, when the holes are not huge.. Baxter and Blue are still a work in progress. Texas run game will remain productive, as long as, Worthy and Mitchell are out here and teams have to respect them..
  22. That was supposedly his best asset as a recruit. Speed and pass catching were his calling cards
  23. I would agree with this. The biggest obstacle for young TEs to find playing time is blocking. Most these guys are not asked to do much blocking in HS and are rarely ready to take on a grown man at DE in year 1.
