  1. Oh for sure, I definitely get it for next level purposes. I just think of guys like blue and CJ Baxter, Silas Bolden sounds like misdirection hell lol.
  2. I agree, I’m stuck with this vision of, standing ovation, “let me give you the shirt off my back” for the defense. And a “well, that was weird” (reaction from James Caan in Elf) for the offense. Then punching special teams in the dick.
  3. The line to gain is the 32 yard line. Let’s say they give him the 37-38 yd line. The percentages of converting that vs 4th and 2 is probably less than half as likely.
  4. Keep going, he retreats backwards after initial contact. He’s on the 39 right here.
  5. I thought that's what the Sugar Bowl last year would do for this year's team.
  6. This is exactly what we ran in HS. T-N-T with the outside backers on the LOS. The weakside backer being the most athletic that would have both pass rush and pass coverage duties. 2 inside backers. And a Sam that was pretty much 80% pass rush. Usually the biggest athletic guy. On our team it was Henry Melton.
  7. It's funny how everything seems to always come full circle. I grew up playing in the late 90s early 2000s. Right in the middle of i-form/single back shifting to spread run and gun stuff. If done well, I think a wing-t would still wreak havoc on a lot of defenses with today's athletes. Shocked nobody has done more with the option game like the great Nebraska teams.
  8. Would’ve been more like 4th & 7. Percentages favor Texas D in a big way.
  9. I think it was more so the 3rd down right before 4th & 2. If Barron makes that tackle properly, Ohio St is punting.
  10. I’m more so saying in personnel than alignment. Simmons and Moore are definitely not traditional defensive ends. Much more closely resemble a Khalil Mack, Micah Parsons type pass rushing Linebacker than a Jevon Kearse, Julius Peppers style Defensive End. Also seems to be more of a OLB-T-N-DE alignment.
  11. I think it's more of a 3-3-5 base. Edge rushers are more pass rushing OLBs than traditional DEs.
  12. Only way to fix that is more playing time. The way Sark threw him in the doghouse was the wrong way to go about it. More touches, not less. It's too much pressure "alright son, here's your only touch of the game. 1 yard for a potential national championship." After not really playing all postseason. That's not fair to him or the team.
  13. I'd be OK finding a better replacement for him.
  14. His underwear Olympics numbers will get him selected.
  15. This play is perfect for what I'm talking about. Just get your hat on a man and Gibson probably scores. The line seems to take on a person's of "I'm going to try to stop you from getting through me." Rather than "I'm going to drive your fuckin face into the dirt." Running is about toughness and attitude.
  16. Wish people would stop saying this shit. It's not always about size. Conner Williams was a small tackle and would maul people in the run game. Studdard and Blalock weren't giants.
  17. Agreed, we're basically "so close U" Texas rarely capitalizes on its big opportunities. It's very frustrating that this university seems refuse to flex it's muscles at times.
  18. 1970 to 1983 was pretty good. Played for two titles in that stretch. 1984-1997 was very shitty.
  19. Agreed, can we establish that 2010-2022 was in no way the expectation or standard at Texas. This isn't Texas Tech where we should feel thankful for making a bowl.
  20. On a good note, that toss play call probably quiets down the NFL interview noise.
  21. This is like saying Huff and Griffin got exposed against USC. Don’t be dumb.
  22. Exactly. Some toughness, some moxie, some poise. The “hop on my back motherfuckers, we’re going to win.” The blank stares and self sacks were infuriating. Would’ve liked to see more of the 3rd and 10 runs like he made tonight. Showed some toughness.
  23. Fully agree to that. For me it’s more about their approach to the game rather than stats. Sam just seemed to always come to play, where with Quinn you don’t know if you’re getting Tom Brady or Ryan Leaf.
  24. Agreed, everyone acting like we’ll easily be back quickly forgets 2010.
