    Guess we shall see about those receivers. :)  The productivity is a byproduct of UT throwing nearly 50% more than UGA. UGA’s has 3 receivers and a TE that average more yards per reception than your top guy. Reliability wise, UGA has second lowest drop rate in the SEC, behind only Bama, on the most recent stats I could find. Not saying they’re better, but they are as good as what you’ve been facing. Should be fun matchup to see. 

    You're saying your passing attack is as good as Oklahoma, West Virginia, Oklahoma State, and Texas Tech because of drop rate? 

    You know that our top two receivers measure in at 6'4" and 6'6", right?  They're not super explosive, but they're still incredibly clutch and really hard to keep the ball away from.    

    We envy your size on the offensive line, and your front seven on defense, but sleep on our skill players at your own risk.  

  2. We've got the skill players to hang with these guys.  We've been running plays that match up with their weaknesses all year in the passing game.  It's all going to come down to the OLine in the end.  We're going to have to run the ball inside eventually if we're going to win, let's just hope we have enough of everything else to wear their front 7 down a bit before we do.

    Edit: for anyone here with kids, weed is one discussion. Xanax is a very different discussion. While it's relatively harmless if you know what you're doing, if you start abusing it to get high all of the time it can get ugly quick. Couple that with the fact that you don't know what is going into each pill and treat it as such. 

    Quoted for emphasis.  Benzos like xanax seem real fun to party with, but you sure as shit do not want to be addicted to them.  It's all fun and games until you're hooked.  Buddy of mine had it real bad with hydrocodone and xanax.  He was taking five bars at a time at one point (as well as 20 norcos, the cost of which is how he got started on xanax).  It was a really nasty detox, it can kill you if you don't do it right.

    With T.Carter and M.Williams gone...

    Assume:

    1)Texas takes 27 in this 2019 Class

    2) B.Jones/LJH/CJ  all return

    3) Porter/T.Houston/Shane GradTrfr

    What would Texas roster number currently be for 2019??

    According to Inside Texas, we have 79 scholarships.  Of the 17 seniors, 3 redshirted (Burt, Chisholm, Rowland), netting us 14 lost.  You listed 5 transfers, so that brings us down to 60.  You're going to need to lose 2 more to take 27 in 2019 (Demarco Boyd? etc.)

    the possession of MJ or xanax alone is the least of his worries in this case.

    The Buy is a huge factor, combined with the scale and baggies.

    The drug heads on this board cry a little too much on cases like this when it's obvious as fuck what is going on.  It's quite a bit more complicated than simple possession.

    and yes, i am pro-legalization and have posted as such for a long time now.

    Exactly.  This dude is a sophomore on a Division I scholarship, and he was dealing weed and pills out of his dorm room, where he was also dumb enough to keep his AR15.  Not only is he in deep shit, but you better believe that the entire team is getting looked at.  You can't do something this dumb and not have your teammates know about it.

    Remember when Herman was asked how many elite players he had on current roster..... And he was laughed at for saying "SOME"

    No Horns players made ESPN'S Best 50 players for 2018 Season.

    West Va had 2

    KState had 1

    Okie Lite had 1

    BlowU had 2

    http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/25504670/college-football-best-players-2018-season,

     

    Good news for both the 2018 and 2019 TEXAS Recruiting Classes is that the Horns are once again signing some Elite Players....

    Hook'em 🤘

    If Brandon Jones hadn't been so banged up, he probably would have made that list.  Him and Sterns are the most elite players we probably have.  CJ and LJH on the bubble of elite, followed by Omenihu.  Ehlinger is knocking on the door, all we need is a slightly more reliable run threat from our backs and he should have enough room to flourish.

    Yeah, almost a million micrograms of Xanax and pot. Sensationalism in journalism is the suck.

    Nah, I can guarantee you that they're just repeating what was written in an arrest report or whatever offense report they received as a public record.  Drug laws are often written in grams, and even laws that are written in ounces like marijuana are measured on scales by cops in grams. 

    It's a little over 3 ounces, and it looks like they busted him with a buy too, given the third charge of delivery.

    So for the 4 previous years, the SEC would have gotten between 1 and 3 total at-large bids, counting this year they would have 2 to 4 for a 5 year period. Hardly some crazy dominance.

    Yet the three preceding years (2013, 2012, 2011), the SEC had 3 teams ranked within the top 6  of the AP poll after Week 13.  The only time the Big 12 would have gotten a second team in under this format is 2014.  

  9. I'm not a fan of two at-large bids without rules.  I'd say that a rule that no conference be allowed more than two teams (one at-large) would be sufficient to fix it, but it'd guarantee the SEC an at-large bid and nearly guarantee the Big 10 the other every year.   

    How the heck would the Big 12 ever be able to get two teams into the playoffs if the SEC West champ only has to play half the teams in the East with no CG?

    It took me way too much time to figure what the hell you were accusing me of, but all I can say is that you really are not very bright.  Why would I create an account in March to troll you in December?  Oh, by the way, I happen to have an account of the same name on Shaggy, dating back another year to April 2017.  Yeah, 80 posts over two years on two different boards just to troll you... you got me! I'm a Sooner sleeper sent from the future to destroy you!  Get over yourself.

    Piece of shit sooner troll alert. 

    I'm not a troll.  That post was made before the CG, and everyone was making fun of the horns down "panic".  You're just butthurt because I called you out in a thread for being a dick, and you've been negging all my posts.  Grow up, man.  Neg my account into oblivion for all I care, I've got more in my life than my rep online.

    atm Galveston? Did you mean atm Corpus Christi?

    atm Galveston is probably the best school of any in the atm system and has a 55% acceptance rate compared to OU's 77%. 

    Not trying to stoke the fire, just correcting a dumbass comment. 

    Selectivity depends upon the qualifications of the applicant pool and the size of the class.  Galveston has long been regarded as a backdoor into College Station.  The average SAT score is about 100 points lower for admitted freshman, and this includes the fairly competitive maritime and engineering programs.

    Oh, look. Another unfunny Sooner douchebag.

    Oh look, another washed up SWTSU dropout compensating online. Don't worry, you can always finish out at A&M Galveston, they'll let you wear the aggy ring and everything.

    Would any of you take winning the Sugar, and in the process confirming Texas is Back, SEC is overrated, ESPN is biased, aggy is no better than their big 12 days, and all that is good from winning that game...

    If it meant OU winning the title and Murray winning the Heisman? Just want to get a feel for win-win versus lose-lose mentality on the boards right now.

    Obviously one is not dependent on the other, just a hypothetical deal with the devil.

    Of course.  We had our shot at spoiling the Sooners chances, one more Sooner championship and Heisman trophy doesn't hurt our recruiting nearly as much as the national bias against us and the Big 12.

  15. I think our RB rotation is methodical and reasonable if you care about player development more than winning this year at the cost of winning in 2019 and 2020. 

    If Ingram is good enough to be a high draft pick, then he'll be gone after three years.  First and second round RB picks historically ramp up their production over time.  Most are third backs their freshman year and get well less than 100 carries.  We're actually playing Ingram more than we should because he's so much better than the guys that were on the roster when he got here.

    Sam also has developed exponentially better pocket presence, which helps, as does the fact that he is better about throwing the ball away outside the pocket, but it's very rare that he's running for his life as soon as he gets the ball, which was normal last year.

    Sam actually trusts his line enough to step up into the pocket instead of taking off at the first sign of pressure.  Anderson and Cosmi have been studs at OT.
