  1. I think Mack flips to FSU if they push, Filsaime is the one I'm really hoping for.
  2. Nah, it was pretty fucking bad. He is way too careless with the ball to be relied on.
  3. His feet break down when he has to go through his progressions. He makes horrible decisions when plays break down. He has moments of brilliance, but you can't rely on that level of inconsistency, His bad feet led to the same poor accuracy he showed in high school. Arch must be pretty bad to not get a look
  4. Texas wins, Florida and A&M lose. Good start to the day
  5. Looks like the nose of the ball hits the ground, but can’t overturn that. Refs are crooked as fuck.
  6. Hutson was in for I think Conner on that TD run.
  7. I get why they wouldn’t want Campbell, Williams, and possibly Agbo all on the same side of the line at the same time. I don’t like it, but I can understand it. I think Conner, despite his physical limitations, generally knows where he is supposed to be blocking and can help communicate responsibilities to the other guys There is a huge risk of whiffing blocks due to poor communication against 3 down looks.
  8. No fucking way. I swear he’s been in hiding, and I think I’ve even seen him as a crew member instead of a crew chief in a game.
  9. KSU wants to bait Texas into running the ball into run keying defenders. I think we see RPOs early and often to punish those linebackers for blitzing so often
  10. This game looks materially different without Worthy out there.
  11. If Sanders is too hurt to go, that takes away one of our big advantages in this game. Their linebackers are aggressive as hell and don’t cover very well anyway, so the middle of the field is wide open.
  12. He was traveling on a couple of those buckets to end the first half, but NBA gonna NBA. That game was insane.
  13. We're gonna RPO them to death. Hopefully MM doesn't take too many chances on 50/50 balls.
  14. I agree that our OL has to block their 3 down look, but we're gonna throw a lot of looks at them and we can't rely on efficiency there. KSU also blitzes often enough and they get home, so I have a hard time seeing us sustaining 8+play drives due to either penalties or sacks. We also haven't been an efficient running team this year. We just need to score enough, but we won't have the chance to if we can't get them off the field. More drives on offense is how we win. They will likely look to choke the clock with methodical drives. Their WRs and RBs block pretty well, and they pull all kinds of motion to make it easier for the eventual ball carrier to get the edge with blockers. This feels like a Watts game, Manny and Brooks can rotate on the other side. I could see us going heavy edges too.
  15. This game won't come down to QB play. Can we stop the option? They'll test it early and often. They run the majority of their stuff to the edges, so I think we'll see plenty of the 4-3 looks with wide linebacker alignments. If they don't get the edge consistently, will they be able to move our interior guys up the middle often enough to keep the chains moving? Neither guy seems to handle the blitz well either. Make them hit passes downfield with pressure in their face. I'm starting to think the entire game comes down to their OL vs our defensive front.
  16. IIRC Lamar was the Redskins until around 2015 or so. Then they became the lame ass Texans. It was also back when Snyder was giving everyone the finger about changing the name of the Washington redskins
  17. They also had Devon Achane last year. Who can they rely on to carry this team on offense against an average Ole Miss defense? If Ole Miss plays a clean game, this is a 10-14 pt win for them.
  18. I've been waiting to see more of the orbit motion with Worthy like he did with Smith and Waddle at Bama, he did it this past Saturday, but it feels like there is a ton of meat left on that bone. We aren't nearly as talented, skilled, or experienced as those Sark Bama teams though, I've been checking out some of the 2014 USC stuff with Cody Kessler, Buck Allen, JuJu and Agholor to get a better feel for how things could/should look with average-above average Texas talent/experience.
  19. @NoName Gotcha. I'm not interested in engaging with you on this topic any further, but thanks for playing.
  20. Only if the read is wide ass open. Last thing you want is a 5'9-5'10 guy without college QB experience throwing passes into smallish windows in the redzone. Recipe for huge momentum swings. I think adding some misdirection or spreading the formation out would help give him fewer people to run through for paydirt.
  21. I named people based on what I personally remember from the recruiting cycle. Not whatever random shit I can retroactively dig up from 247. Bringing up random 247 listed offers doesn't mean a whole lot. I mean, Texas was really after Klubnik and Weigman right? They offered after all. Additionally, a player's performance elsewhere is not indicative of what they would have done here.
  22. I think if we're going to clone one of our lineman it should be Sweat.
  23. 3 down 3 backers 5 DBs They'll probably mask where the 4th rusher comes from and drop 7. Communication on the back end is the most important part though. The more people going into routes, the more likely someone can take advantage of the mistake.
  24. They have done well developing the 2021 guys they inherited. Sanders wasn't a guarantee to develop. They whiffed on Skinner, stopped pushing for Boardingham (who looks good at Florida), and the Llewellyn guy. and punted on that cycle. In 2023, Randle will do his job if he keeps Arch happy, and Shannon will probably be good to go in 2025. Maybe if SC falls apart, we can get Duce to transfer here. They've shown they can develop TEs, which is more critical at this position than some others.
