    Why? Sure Texas has some issues. And Alabama has a great team. But, what team have they played that could really put pressure on their defense? Texas does have receivers that can control space, they go zone, Texas wins that match up. We can also RPO far more efficiently then any team they have played this year. As good as LSU defense may be. Bama could load up knowing there was little to no threat of a vertical passing game. Which is pretty much what they did. There were plays were all 11 defenders were within 5 yards of the LOS.

    Flip it over and ask what does Alabama do that Texas hasn’t seen? Run power? I think that plays into Texas’ strength. And Tua biggest play is pretty much a simplified version of what most big 12 teams run. 

    In fact the intangible is Sam. Healthy he presents Alabama their biggest problem. Because they must respect the Texas passing game, and have to play man. They go zone and Texas would move up and down the field on them. In a man to man scheme shifts the point of attack numbers to Texas on called QB run plays.

    All that said. If they played next week and you asked me to bet on who do I take? I would take Texas. And I very well may lose. But I think it would be a good game. And I wouldn’t be shocked if Texas won.

    wuuuuuut...Hey man, I love your optimism, but wow. Alabama would ass rap us and they would make us pay for every mistake we make(and we make multiple mistakes every game)  We won 9 games . Fucking awesome but lets not start sucking each other's dicks . 

    Beat ALabama smh....for fucks sake. I like it and im going ot continue to drink until I agree with your thinking because im enjoying life right now.

    TCU has adjusted in defense and shut us down.  Now, a good coach would match that with changes of his own.  

    So we’re fucked.  

    they havent adjusted worth a shit. We are peeing in the wind and thinking we are geniuses. Fire the offensive coordinator NOW

  3. Watching the Ohio State /TCU game right now. Man I think we are fucked. Going into the 4th quarter and this game is a lot closer than the final score. TCU looks fast and the offense has its shit together. Dont understand why it seems Texas just cant hire a successful offensive coordinator. . Praying for home field to make up for a lot.

    Coaches we won't / can't hire because they have pasts with the NCAA and "We're Texas," ranging from sleaziest to least: Briles, Petrino, Carroll*

    Coaches who ain't comin': Petersen, Swinney, Saban*

    Coaches who've burned bridges here: Applewhite, Harsin, Muschamp**

    Coaches who are too fat to represent the University: Patterson ***, Mangino****

    Coaches who have only had success at mid-majors so far; Again, "We're Texas" and will not hire, especially post-Herman and Strong: Brohm, Fleck

    A coach who would piss off the BMDs while everyone else who would love it, on the field and off: The Pirate

    Co-ordinators or assistants, anywhere?: Lol. We're Texas, we don't do crap like OU did with Stoops. And Riley.

     

    *Denotes also too old

    ** Also kinda sucks as an HC

    *** Also in the "ain't comin'" category

    **** Is a garbage human. 

    We are as picky with coaches as we are with chicks around here. We don't settle for Kate Upton -- we need a 12. 

    How has Harsin burned bridges here?

  5. This situation reminds me of that story when the guy got his arm caught in rocks while mountain climbing. He could wait it out and maybe have a 5 percent chance of being saved or he could take out his pocket knife and painful cut his fucking arm off and have a 95 percent chance to survive.. That badass cut his arm clean off and lived... probably didnt even go back and look at his mensa arm. ever. . I bet he climbed mount Everest after that. maybe 2 or 3 times with a new arm.
