I thought this was a gambling thread is it not? 

I've been making these threads on the football board for years cause I thought it brought up some good chatter. But if y'all want it over here, that's cool. 

Was also making sure I wasn't crazy and made this here instead of there.

Weather forecast is 90° and sunny. 

The first fall cold front is projected come through during the middle of the week; if that holds up, morning lows will be high 50's and the air will be much, much drier than it has bee. Dew point in the 40's dry. High of 90, but this is an 11AM kick so that won't be reached during the game, or perhaps until the very end if it runs long. The forecasted kickoff temp is 78. 

God willing the cold front arrives as predicted, it should be a beautiful day for a game, just wear some sunscreen.

This Texas team is still all kinds of flawed on both lines of scrimmage. We shouldn’t feel two touchdown confident against any Big 12 team not named Kansas. 

And yeah, this. Tech's been pretty solid running the ball, which Texas has had issues with even against ULL/Rice, let alone Arkansas. I am sure Texas will see a steady diet of Tahj Brooks until they prove they can stop the run.

Disagree. WVU has never beat OU and it's on the road at night.

Maybe lightning will strike but I assume that'll be an OU blowout.

wv beat switzer in norman in '82, and they also beat them in a bowl game in '08

We easily could lose this game if we come out like we did against piggy particularly if we employ the same lame play calling.

This team needs focus all the time to win, looking at you, coaches.

as i posted in the wulaw weekly thread, we have short memories

53 weeks ago today we felt great about the previous night's no-lube plunge on UTSA, then went to labuttocks and absolutely shit the bed and should have lost by at least 2 scores before Sam pulled the greatest late-4th-quarter comeback in Horn history to save turtle's job for a few weeks.  the pitchforks were sharp, and the torches were hot.

add in big12 fuckery, which they are not afraid to roll out at dkr (see 2015).  add in the mack curse.  we should win easily.

Texas can absolutely lose at home to Tech (see 2015, 2017), but won by 25 in 2019 which is more typical when the teams meet in Austin. Basically, we should kick the crap out of them because its a home game.
