re: Which running back would you rather have on your team: Derrick Henry or Saquon Barkley?

Posted by Riseupfromtherubble on 1/8/25 at 12:25 pm

Growing up in central Alabama in the 90's, we had dogs my whole life. We never had an inside dog until I was in my mid teens. We had a dog house outside and regularly changed the cedar shavings and none of those dogs ever had issues with the cold or the heat. Husky, Beagle, and Collie all lived a he...

I know Camden Yards isn't that old, but it was purposely built with a "retro" look in the 90's. To me, that's how an urban ballpark should look [img]https://img.mlbstatic.com/mlb-images/image/upload/t_4x1/t_w1536/mlb/vlsggpcveeiimemqaxtn.jpg[/img]...

re: Does Texas gain an advantage playing in Dallas vs Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl?

Posted by Riseupfromtherubble on 1/3/25 at 10:07 am

I think Ohio State is the best team in the country, but Texas has the guys on defense to turn this into a 20-17 game that comes down to special teams and turnovers. ...

re: What made the defense adjust?

Posted by Riseupfromtherubble on 1/3/25 at 10:03 am

It's Kane's defense not Deboers. We played a lot of freshmen on defense this year. I think we improved some because we tightened up the back end rotations and the guys that were playing got more and more comfortable. I thought the front 7 really left a lot to be desired though for most of the se...

re: QB situation next year

I think we're going to have a legitimate competition heading into the fall. I think Russell is probably the most natural, Ty the most athletic, and Mack is a prototype build with the longest time in the system. I really think they're all good, so I don't see anyone separating themselves in pract...

At the end of the day Proctor is better suited for guard. He's built like Landon Dickerson. I just don't think Pritchett is that good. You saw the archetype that Deboer wants at tackle in the recruiting class. Jackson Lloyd is a current 280 that will grow to 310, 3 sport star, etc. Haywood, prio...
