Texas opens as a 10.5 point underdog v Oklahoma

[Fud 9552]

With the caveat that everything should be thrown out of the window for this game:

I'm surprised by how much of this offense Hurts carries with his legs. They aren't especially dangerous running the ball (with backs, they are with Hurts); their counter trey play that has owned the Big XII for the past few years doesn't look particularly dangerous, because the pulling offensive linemen aren't that athletic, and they shield rather than drive, whenever they don't completely whiff. When at least one tackle isn't holding on a pass play, they're both holding; I frequently shake my head in amazement when watching them at some of the flagrant holds they get away with. Swenson is good, Ealy is average, and Proctor really sucks. If Swenson is out, that's especially big, I think. They're good at sucking you in and holding so Hurts can gash you with his legs (that's they're best play, DL run of the field and the OL holds them while Hurts runs past); he's fucking good running, basically Ehlinger with home run speed. Or black Tebow.

I was expecting more passing down the field, like we've seen in the past with OU, or even something similar to LSU this year, considering OU's strong receiver group. However, the passing mostly comes in three forms; short passes (a lot of times they'll throw a screen to a jet sweep guy after he's run past the QB) that Hurts is pretty good at hitting accurately, guys getting open in zone (most teams play zone so they have eyes on Hurts for when he runs) where Hurts usually finds the open guy if he has time, and guys running wide open deep when there's a coverage bust. I didn't see a lot of throwing 1 vs 1 down the field. I don't think Hurts is the type of dual threat that you just keep in the pocket and wait for him to make a mistake, he's good enough now to where he can beat you that way. I think you have to pressure him, but have to be careful to not overrun him. 

One of the keys to the game, imo, is tackling Hurts when you get a chance. He's strong, crafty, and slippery, and hardly ever goes down from the first defender. Teams spy him and he breaks the spy's tackle, teams try to control rush him and he outruns them, teams spring towards the sidelines to contain him and he plants and cuts upfield. If we tackle him, it takes away a big part of their offense. 

Defensively, they play really aggressive and downhill in their front six. The DL shoot gaps and slip into the backfield en mass, and their two off the ball LB come downhill hard, which leads to big plays both offensively and defensively. They aren't trying to take on blocks, they're trying to slip under them; Perkins is especially good at this. They haven't really played a passing attack worth a shit, so maybe they play more cautiously when a QB can easily RPO behind the backers. They rotate DL a lot, so I'd try and keep them from subbing and hopefully eventually make them tap out. To be honest, there's not a ton to take away from past games defensively, because the opposing QBs have been poor passers, and the offensive lines haven't been good. They've given up a ton of garbage time yardage.

They might play but this isn't Riley playing mind games. They're banged up. Both missed the Kansas game and their reporters were saying they would probably miss the Texas game last week. 

The semi-credible OU reporters I've heard think that Ealy should be back, but probably not Swenson. OU has started 5 different OL combos in their 5 games, definitely something to watch for.

[LTtxfan 49196]

At least one starting blOU OT will be out on Saturday so Horns D should take advantage by mixing in 4 man fronts much earlier in the game.  A 4 man front hopefully helps slow down blOU's RBs,  and puts more pressure on Hurts when he is passing.  Texas rushers have to be disciplined and stay in their lanes...

A poor Texas pass rush or allowing Hurts to escape by running on 3rd downs is blOU's best chance to win Saturday.  If Horns can't get pressure on Hurts when he's passing, the Texas secondary won't hold up against blOU WRs.

They run a lot of quick passing stuff. Like you said, this is a different looking OU offense.

I'm not sure I would bring a ton of pressure in this game because Hurts is likely going to get the ball out of his hands quickly if you bring pressure. He can also beat you with his legs if you over commit.  I think I would rather us force Hurts into a game manager type in this game instead of bringing numbers. Not saying Hurts can't be that but I'm not sure bringing a lot of pressure is the right play in this game.

Let BJ Foster spy his ass.  He will knock the fuck out of Hurts a couple times at least.  Foster can bring the wood.

I'm fine not bringing pressure most of the time; controlled four man pass rush (not a contain rush, we should still try to stack him, just don't overrun him), with someone spying behind it. Their OL isn't great this year, and we should get some pressure, even if they're holding.  I don't think we should just have guys trying to keep Hurts in the pocket, because I don't trust our DBs to cover these WRs in this scheme for long periods of time.

Ealy isn't anything special, so that's fine. Swenson is the decent one. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

The mismatch is Radley-Hiles trying to cover Duvernay in the slot. There is no shot in hell Radley can cover Duvernay. OU is gonna have to help with a safety most of this game on Duvernay. 

I hope CJ is good to go because I think OU's strategy will be to 1) stop run game with Ehlinger and 2) try to help on Duvernay. Guys like Eagles and CJ will get single coverage in this game.

100% incorrect. Most of OUs running plays utilizing running backs involve slow-developing plays with pulling linemen, counter motion, etc. You want more speed on the field to kill plays like that, not more bulk. And their running backs frankly suck anyway (partly because their line can't run block for shit).

Hurts is the biggest threat in their run game, and again, you're not going to contain him with a standard four man front. You need more speed.

OUs offense can be a juggernaut when they get going; the easiest way for them to get going is to face a predictable front. If Texas wins, it will be because they got good push with 3 DL plus one extra guy "from somewhere" on most plays. If Texas loses, it will be because they either didn't do that, or because they went away from their basic philosophy and tried something OU is designed to crush anyway.

Nice job adding the bold to the previous post... 😆

The way I'm expecting Texas to mix in 4 man fronts is by walking up Ossai... Not by adding more bulk.  So still lots of speed remaining on the field for the Horns utilizing a 4 man front.  🤘

Love the breakdown BTW (have some +rep). I know OU's schedule has been wet dogshit to this point so hard to believe all the numbers -- and I haven't watched too much of them play other than the opener against Houston until it got really ugly and a little of last week's game against Kansas. OU is averaging 7.9 yards per carry on the ground (Hurts 8.8, Sermon 7.3, Stevenson 10.7, Brooks 8.2 -- all on 25 or more carries). That seems like a lot.

Anyway, thanks for the breakdown. Hurts never impressed me throwing the ball at Alabama -- watched a lot of those games with my Clemson grad wife -- and I was admittedly completely hammered after last year's Big 12 Champ Game so I didn't witness Hurts' transformation in the win over Georgia in the SEC title game. Good to hear it's mostly short shit like at Bama is leading to lots of YAC. Because if he's able to throw downfield against our depleted secondary, it could make for a looooooooong day at the Cotton Bowl.

Here’s what we know for sure:

We are going to line up and beat the hell out of them physically. Oklahoma hasn’t been more physical than us since Mack. Every year, we punch them in the mouth. We are going to win the battle of physicality.

We need Rojo to run a lot. Pooka Williams ate them up last week. Ingram isn’t going to get it done. Run Ingram when we’ve gassed them and when we’re late in long drives. Will this happen? No, but it’s how we should approach the running game.

Yep, could def call out OU OL and safeties, but the RBs are pretty excellent. Clemson is averaging 1.8ypc less than OU, Bama is averaging 2.6ypc less than OU, neither of them have played any worldbeaters either. 

OU was #1 in the country in YPC last year also, so it isn't just some random fluke because of 5 weak opponents this year. OU could go 31 carries for 0 yards Saturday and still be tied with UGA for ypc.

Really good stuff. I haven’t seen any of OU since the UH game, but it was really obvious in that game how much worse their OL was compared to the last few years. It’s still a pretty good OL (that’s helped a lot by the scheme), but it’s a huge step down from last year. I think Coburn and Roach could have really big games and Ossai too, if Orlando let’s him play the edge enough.

I’m not sure if Hurts can beat us from the pocket. Against UH, it was look to the first read, then scramble. I definitely don’t think we should drop 8 every play, but we also shouldn’t bring 5 very often because we do a terrible job of keeping contain when we blitz. Orlando will have to walk a thin line of mixing up coverages and fronts while not going too far to either extreme.

Yep, big step down for the OL this year. 

Hurts has been much different in the pocket the last 2 weeks, much more willing and able to progress through the reads. Obviously, things may be different in the Cotton Bowl in that environment, etc., but he looked MUCH more comfortable vs. Tech and KU than vs. UCLA and UH.
