    But we did get that Ineligible Man Downfield call. That was weird. Maybe a make-up call from the Sanders hold on the previous drive.
  2. Texas 31 Baylor 24 Bijan - 176
  3. Agree on Sorrell. He's going to be the primary edge rusher moving forward. Ovie is being asked to read-pop, glance, spy, etc more often than he's directly rushing, which is fine for his skill set. I can see guys like Burke, Walton, and Gullette being used the same way depending on how they develop. I think we have edges on our roster, but that's not saying that we can't grab the right guy from the portal. You aren't wrong. But Murphy and Broughton are rotating in often without noticeable drop off and should be good next year. It's that the next crop of DT2s are redshirting, so only the coaches know how that's going. Collins is solid depth even if he's not the superstar we want him to be. I'd be prioritizing a portal LB. We are losing a lot, and there's not much depth there to begin with. I don't think a 5* freshmen LB fully solves the issue, either. DB is another spot where the backups drop off quite a bit from starters. We have young talent there, but they've been tested and failed quite a bit this year.
  4. We were decent at this last year, but it felt more like individual efforts. There are plays this year with 3-4 guys getting there immediately. Even when the corner blows it up right away there are other hats coming in hot.
  5. Theu call phantom holding on us and miss obvious holding on them. We about to get ref fucked.
  6. I don't think that rule is in place until Jan 1 (or Jan 18 is actually when the portal closes).
  7. Numberswise, we wanted 2 RBs and Wisner was taken as RB2. I don't think he's getting processed unless we have other options. OL, Edge are the postions where scholarships are tightening. I'm looking at OL personally.
  8. We are full circle back to calling them halfbacks, but, yes, that's the position Randle slots in. That's one of the reasons Randle's spot is safer if we take a 3rd TE.

    This is a known issue. The NCAA has asked the rules committee to review the defensive substitution rules this offseason. It was already changed last offseason. Last year the umpire would put the ball into play quicker at a low play clock, but the defense was allowed to have their players leave the field after the snap if they were within a stride of the sideline and did not impact the play. The issue with this was the judge calling "technically correct" 12-men penalties when the umpire thought it was okay to play. This year the umpire is holding the ball until substitution is complete as long as the defense is substituting with haste and not causing additional delay, which is an impossible determination for the umpire. There is no longer a grace window for the defense. They have to be completely off the field. The leading idea going forward is putting the ball into play a set amount of time after the offense completes its substitution. That way both teams know how much time they have, and there's less room to work the officials or try to game the system.
  10. ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ in Roswell. FIGHT!!!
  11. Texas 34 Kansas 27 Punts: 152 yards
  12. I liked Weigman as a recruit. I hope he finds success in a program less dogshit.
  13. That's probably a low estimate. If you start at a baseline of $100k per scholarship, you are already to $8.5MM. That means there only $4.5MM more to fend off portal competition for upwards of 20 players plus promises to 20+ recruits.
  14. The insta post means he likes Young Jeezy, works hard for the team, and is loyal.
  15. My vote was 7-5. The problem isn't the record or preseason predictions. The problem is that this team is actually improved more than what anyone should have expected, and we've even seen glimpses of great football at times. Is there a position group on this team that isn't clearly better than last year? OL is the closest thing, and I think most people here undertstand why and think it's still headed the right way. But we've been erratic as hell between games and even within games. We can't seem to keep it together at crucial times, and it's costing us games that we should not lose.
  16. That Vegas open represents ~38-31, so high scoring would not be unexpected.
  17. This is gonna come down to SEC title game officiating. Will LSU be allowed to win?
  18. I don't think the punter was even flopping. He has a weird motion that takes his plant leg out from under him. He fell once without being hurried and almost did a second time.

    When the umpire was explaining the call to Coburn, it looks like he took exception to the jerky way Coburn switched his hands. As if the offense might have thought Coburn was the snapping the ball.
  20. Brooks is supposed to stay on the post.
  21. Working itself out today.
  22. That's the FW Stockyards and a longhorn cow is the symbol for FW. I'm not sure they are trying to troll. Not good.
  23. Texas 34 TCU 31 519 yards passing
