And we’ve largely whipped our opponents short yardage efforts too for the last handful of years so where are their dominating road graders? Goalline and short yardage is about numbers. There is no one to block a Ransom or Downs. The play caller has to account for those dudes. We have added some QB run to the mix. That’s already helped. This belief that defenses get moved off the line is a fallacy. In the 8 game regular season SEC slate last year, we led the conference in yards per carry with no help from the Qb and backs generally perceived to get what was blocked. No team, in the theoretical best conference, is moving teams off the line consistently. You gave no examples on these dominating offensive fronts. We clearly value pass protection. Our tight ends are generally better pass catchers than blockers. Until proven otherwise that’s where our priority lies. I understand that’s a problem for you.

I was up in fort worth for a game two weeks ago ended up at a place called The Truck Yard. They had a seating section upstairs with about ten TVs all different games on and I sat with a few other Longhorns fans that were up there for a rangers game. They have good beer and a bunch of food options downstairs. Probably not the answer you're looking for but it was a cool place to have a few cold ones and watch the games.

My 3 game balls go to Arch, McDonald and Wingo. Jelani has been ridiculous so far. Looking like an AA.

🤣 with Lagway "hurt"(watch The Program to understand the quotes) and playing like white dog poop, who is the next boogie man?

You’re right. We definitely are great in short yardage and redzone with our incredible offensive line! We move defenders off the line of scrimmage and things are amazing. Go team go!

That should happen sooner than later.

Things are looking good for the volleyball team, they are playing very well but with three freshman in the starting lineup and a scattering of new faces, still have some kinks to work out. This bodes well for them making a deep run as you stated. They've already shown Texas fight with two 5-set wins against top 5 opponents where they were down bad. Texas got an absolute stud getting Ramsey Gary from Indiana. With her, they basically have two liberos in the backcourt along with Emma Halter. Easily making last year's weakness a strong point. Emma Halter is the only senior of the main cast, which means however far they make it this year, they are poised for another run next year so long as everyone remains healthy and no one leaves after the season. Very exciting to watch them this year and they have that Texas Swagger.

@Gerry HamiltonSean Miller is a good Coach that develops players but couldn’t get over the hump to a FF until he does not in the elite category!

I need to start following this dude. Seems like a great quarterback and person.

To put some numbers to this, he was 128th in big time throw percentage last year. His rate was twice as high the year before at 5.7%. Think his average depth of target is just under 10 this year so not dinking and dunking but limited big time throws, which are heavily weighted towards deep throws and less at the intermediate range. Like many guys he’s improving as he matures, at least from s statistical standpoint.

I find it hard to believe that Stroh is our best option at LG. I'm also disappointed in DJ. This is supposed to be his contract year but he isn't playing like it.

Boz is actually pretty funny on those. He’s chilled out now that he’s a recovering addict.

He's going to be on some short lists if jobs open up.

Any statisticians out there segment the pre snap from the live penalties? That would be interesting.

Yet somehow that C, in spite of being injured, was picked up by the defending Super Bowl champs. The team whose starting crew is considered by some to be the best unit in the NFL. That problem at G was so terrible he was drafted. For two years running, Texas had a top 3-5 ish pass blocking unit. I’d challenge you to find me any OL, but provide some support for you claim, that could claim to be top 5 in both pass protection and run blocking. I’d bet you can’t find one. And you sure as hell won’t find one in which all 5 members are equally adept at pass protection and run blocking. And even in spite of this major “problem” two of the plays on our final important drive last year were off the edges. All teams have strengths and weaknesses. And that’s for certain in every teams Oline so it’s really more about playing into your strengths. But sure let’s harp on it as a problem that probably doesn’t have a solution to satisfy you. Its still early so we don’t fully know what we do best. Funny too that message board warriors had themselves convinced that our interior run game would be improved because the “problems” were now gone.

I have LaNorris Sellers, Kevin Jennings and Fernando Mendoza in my QB room for my college fantasy team.

After watching the SEC Netflix deal… my conclusion is the kid is not a dawg. Just sayin’. People who have played or coached know what I’m talking about.

I am pumped to see this years team!

An injured wheel against this Texas defense isn’t exactly a recipe for success

somehow shocking didn’t think it got much worse

He’s a lot better than you’re giving him credit for. Have to go look at the Cal tape for more big time throws. Handles pressure well.
