  1. It may not have been perfect, but Derek Anderson's crew is about the best we're going to get in the B12.They're far better than Mar or Alvarez. I'll take Anderson over anything else in a NY second.
  2. Except those other games weren't their Superbowl.
  3. We'll probably find out, but hopefully he's not stubborn enough to try to punch it in on 4th down from the 3 against KSU. They are a top 25 run defense.
  4. I don't know exactly how the analytics are calculated but it's probably an average of all games/teams. In a live game situation does the team with the best OL in football do the same thing as the team with the worst OL? And the same can be said about going against the best/worst DL. To not take into consideration the other variables of the situation would be shear stupidity.
  5. Kansas almost let ou pull a Texas. Leaving ou with 55 sec was an oh shit moment and that last ou play had too high of a success rate probability with Gabriel at QB. Did Leipold not see what Gabriel did to Texas? ou had 2 TO's with 55 sec left so Kansas coulda taken a knee on 2 plays and left about 5 sec after 3rd down and kicked a chip shot FG. I like making a chip shot FG and leaving 5 sec a lot better than a TD and leaving Gabriel 55 sec. Fortunately it worked out.
  6. "inferior opponent" I was yelling take the FG against ou because I knew Texas wasn't going to push the ou DL around.
  7. Cal was stupid to go for 2. Other than the turnovers they had been winning both sides of the ball. Why not give your players who had played their hearts out a chance to win it in OT?
  8. What's more important, scoring 44 pts or practicing goal line offense against an inferior opponent? I'm pretty damn sure Sark will take the 3 against KSU unless Texas has to have 7 to tie/win. Although I'm not sure if there's anything other than roids that will help the OL get more push.
  9. Quinn says Jesus Christ doesn't care who wins football games. https://twitter.com/Sports_Spectrum/status/1706662101954306213
  10. Would love to see B12 refs get what they they deserve.
  11. Texas started turning it around in the 2nd set. It woulda never been 5 if not for one of the most BS carry calls I've ever seen. I've seen hundreds of carries worse than that not called. Otherwise, Texas takes the 2nd set and wins in 4.
  12. I'm sorry, but that was not a catchable ball. It grazed the top of the fingers just like when MB's in volleyball have balls graze their fingers and the ball doesn't get blocked.
  13. We also kept hearing it was nothing but garbage time against a bunch of walk-ons from the naysayers.
  14. Depends on the gap between Quinn and Maalik, and right now all we can do is speculate and hope for the best.
  15. I forgot how to calculate the probability of something like this and I'm not going back through 2 books to figure it out. But based on things I remember I can most assuredly say it's less than 1%. I also wouldn't be a bit surprised if the same analysis shows the same thing for the last 15 years. What scum B12 admin and refs are. We can't get out of this shithole conference fast enough.
  16. At 238 lbs it may only take 15 mph. Momentum = M x V I never even had to step a foot inside Cockrell to remember that one.
  17. Texas still doesn't have an "impose our will" OL and you know BYU and KSU will be loading the box. Running isn't going to work unless Maalik can make them feel some pain passing.
  18. That's a whole lot easier said than done when the only safety on the team that can break 5 seconds in the 40 is a true freshman.
  19. I'm sure they'll be practicing a lot of quick dump off's this week. Hopefully Maalik can burn them on a couple. It's not like he's a true freshman.
  20. I think the lizards on the road is a more likely loss than the Mormons at home. And it's more of a bragging rights forever game and its a helluva long history. I know it was the same for Baylor, but Baylor flat out sucks.
  21. It was nearly full because: 1. It's a 40k seat stadium. 2. Nearly half the bodies were Texas fans. 3. Houston fans want to beat Texas more than they want to fuck a $20 whore. Good luck getting that stadium half full next year.
  22. You haven't been keeping up. This team is SCAREY good. They are terrible, we should win convincingly.
  23. What players would be better? Catalon is out and no one else has shown anything. Gilbeaux had to be taken out because he got burned multiple times. Muhammed and Williams have potential, but even Huff and Brown sucked as Freshmen. Allen has never shown anything. Brooks keeps getting burned. ??
  24. He's a good special teams player, but what has he done to prove he deserves more carries at RB? He's a scat back, not the best type of option for Sark's offense. I'd rather see Blue get carries over Robinson.
  25. Whittington is one of the best blocking WR's Texas has ever had.
