I agree. I am really afraid of the Texas game. I don't care what UCLA did, they will be very stout on run defense. If our players expect an easy win and underestimate we're in deep sh#t.
I am nervous as all get-out for the TXass game, but the players will be foaming at the mouth. I think they'll take care of business. I think they'll have to.
I just don't know what to think. They will be ready, they will be playing for pride, and they have a very good defense, easily the best we have seen and probably will see (OU included). If we can run all over them then we truly deserve our top 10 status. I'm just really afraid it'll be like last year's game - little to no rushing game, little to no passing game. The one thing that encourages me is our defense vs. their offense. I do not see how they will score unless we turn it over and play sloppy. We need someone with a level head to explain reasonably why we'll win. That'll make me feel better.
This is why I think we win. Defense is a given. How will we score points? I think they will key in on Taylor so much, it will open up running lanes for Rex/Roy. I also think play action will be used a bunch in this game. That play at KSU was perfect. Taylor under threw Kyler a little, but if a guy is that wide open it does not matter. When Roy/Rex start to do their thing, UT defense has to make adjustments to stop those two. This will open up Taylor. People seem to forget all the weapons we have on offense. Its not just Snuffy. We have McNeill, Kinnie, Niles, Roy, Rex, and Taylor. And that mixed with a physical O-line with a lot of depth, it means we will create running lanes. I also think we will see at least two trick plays. I think they have been saving these plays for the tough teams. We did not use any last year bc our offense was not good and the coaches did not want to take any chances. This year I think is a diff. story with the offense and coaches not holding anything back. I hope Im right...
