BTW, what happens if Manning and Sarkisian simultaneously pull their heads out their a-holes and each play and coach a complete game? Holy cow.

One thing that makes a big difference with our offense.. Arch running the ball.

We haven’t seen it much this year, but it all works better when the defense has to account for him.

TBD if Sark cranks it up this week or tries to keep it in his back pocket.

I would like to point out that we put up a whooping 14 spot against the vaunted defense of the Lobos of New Mexico. It might take us 7 quarters to score 23 points against your defense.

Venables will pull out anything and everything for this one, and as you know, weird stuff happens in this game.

We have the better team imo but the better team doesn’t always win.

I was listening to a Texas podcast yesterday, and one of the speakers was talking about a speech he heard DKR give before the game, many years ago..

Paraphrased
“The key to this game is momentum. The team that grabs it and hangs on to it will win the game.”

It sounds so simple, but it’s really true when you think about it. Only 50k fans each, but somehow it feels louder than 100k at times when one team grabs the mo.

It’s intimidating and the energy (good and bad) gets heavy quick. I can’t imagine being on the field. These kids are mostly 18-22 years old, and emotions play a big role.

One key factor that we don’t have this year.
Tre Wisner

That guy was a JAG for most games, but against OU and A&M, he was a monster. I loved the way he played in these games.

Hollywood & Raleek are both better imo, but they’ll have to show up and ball out to match his production. It’s also possible that Venables didn’t scheme against him much for the same reason, so maybe a different scheme makes a difference too..

TLDR: I love this game, but I have no clue who will win, and it’s pretty much the same every year.

Texas cant move the ball. Give me OU 23-21

If OU scores 23, they’ll have a chance..

Only 2 options imo.

1) Close game that could go either way

2) Texas by a lot

Sark vs Venables
Texas 49-0
OU 34-30
Texas 34-3
Texas 23-6

Texas 136 - 39
Average 34-10

Prediction: Texas 27-3

Auburn hasn’t appeared in a ap top 25 poll since 2021.

This is all you needed to say.

I watched some Washington State Mateer videos back when it was announced he was coming to OU. He looked very good. What the hell happened to him? I mean they brought his OC with him.

OU has no running game, which makes it much easier to stop the OU offense.

4 DL rush
1 spy (Biles)
6 guys in coverage

It all starts with the running game and they don’t have one.

re: Who could Arkansas have gotten?

Why does Arkansas hate Jeff Traylor? He would take that job imo and do well there.

Great eye for underrated talent.
Great developer.
East Texas roots.

:dunno:

This game is RIPE for an upset.

100% it happens when one team is written off and backed into a corner, and they come out swinging with nothing to lose..

I expect a close game.

Georgia vs Miami
Ole Miss vs Ohio State

Alabama vs Indiana
Texas vs Notre Dame
Young OCs

Brennan Marion
Buster Faulkner
Charlie Weis, Jr

Or

Jeff Traylor
They just ran into a juggernaut.
Arkansas should hire Jeff Traylor. He may not win a NC, but he’ll make you competitive.
show more of that girl please

That is a perfect description.
