Texas not running the ball by design to protect the RB room?

We are running the ball every 2nd down like clockwork. Msu has our playcalling down pat. 

[Mdhorn 6,153]

Texas making this hard.  There's no over the top help and the deep ball is there for the catch.  Arch has played well, this could be a blowout already.

[Lou Loomis 929]

After that half, I’m ready to reenact Leaving Las Vegas.

[D3zii 3,911]

Who gets ball after half?

[Hefeweizen 5,416]

I hope they fucking commit to the run game in the second half.  That was pathetic.

😂😂😂😂 we’re getting bitched by a

1-3 Miss State team who has blowout losses to Toledo (MAC) and Florida 

lord help us make the necessary corrections 

This is their Super Bowl and they are playing a QB that we don't have any tape on.  

I have faith that we'll come out strong in the 2nd half

Texas.

Well I hoped we were no longer the kind of team that had games like this but I guess we are.

It's alright. Just get out there and win it guys.

Surprised they do the 10-second runoff on a defensive injury. Seems like a team could fake an injury to stop an opposing team with no time-outs from scoring at the last second.

I think they screwed that up

More Moore... less Cook

With the logjam we already have at wideout, plus the incoming HS class, Cook really needs to make the most of his opportunities. His hands have always been a minor question mark, but with his overall athleticism he still should be a positive for us. I'd like to see it happen soon. 

[Mdhorn 6,153]

Texas should be wearing their asses out in the second half. 

[Hornsome 268]

I didn’t mind calling a TO. I hated the 10 yard run after the sack.  

Bend but don’t break defense isn’t working when the offense has 7 runs for  10 yards and one fumble.  Ironically Miss St is selling out to stop the run and not us.

Every team has games like this. I expect more of them in the expanded playoff era.

It was dumb as fuck to call the TO...just let MSST run the clock out.  There would be like 3 seconds left if we got a stop.  And now Taafe gets banged up because of it.

Well he obviously was aiming to get the ball back. But then we gave up 10 yards on 200 missed tackles and he decided he need to get to half. He wanted to get another chance to score.

honestly... if we end up winning... please god... that we win...  I think its fair that whoever wins the bama GA game gets the 1 spot.  because we sure as fuck havent looked like 1.    and it would be a good motivator for the team. 

[Navin R. Johnson 871]

It could be worse; we could give up 70 to James Madison

Yeah, that first half was called like a team extremely thin at RB. 

[immamac 44,197]

Not stoke for that first half. 

[Rip76 5,009]

I should've hit the Weller much earlier.

It’s a teaching opportunity for Sark. But we need to take care of business. 

[Funk Doctor Spock 13,120]

More Wisner. He moves rgw pile forward and he's a tough SOB. Blue is meh in this game so far. 

That pass to Moore was absolute bad ass. Right on the money.

So was the one to cook...

[Texas St. Armadillos 1,388]

My crazy theory on the running game struggles for Texas offense:

Blue doesn't know the plays very well.  

His first steps are tentative.  He then gets yards by his athleticism.   I have seen few "downhill" runs from him.  Always a shift cut or hesitation.

I think we will come out with intensity in the second half. At least, I hope we will.

As much as it feels like the defense is getting whipped, they gave up 6pts. It’s the offense that has shit the bed.  That drop was brutal. 

[Funk Doctor Spock 13,120]

I can't wait for Baxter to be back, as well as Gibson getting better, Wisner getting stronger, and the emergence of Stewart and Simon. 

[HiggyBaby 2,615]

Sorry guys, forgot my lucky shirt in the wash. All set now.

Dude, I cannot get over that drop. It was so on the money that it would have been a dagger to Lebby. At least we got it back with Moore.

Wait. . . you mean again, right. Because I've been living Leaving Las Vegas and Groundhog Day for over a decade with Texas football until last year. 

I can easily fall back

[tbone_ 14,405]

I think it’s pretty simple. Team has been sniffing their own farts, D hasn’t faced anyone with a physical run game and wasn’t ready for it, and a freshman quarterback (though he’s pretty good for a freshman).

Recipe for struggles.

[alincoln 2,390]

Would probably be 24-3 without the fumble and the drop.  Can’t make those mistakes

Strange considering how long he’s been at Texas but he does seem to get force directed into pre-snap position a lot.

Oh for fucks sake, punt, fumble, dropped td pass is why this isn't a blowout.
