Is Southeastern Prep also playing OTE this year too?

@Blake Munroeand @CJ Vogel crickets? Come on South Oklahoma how you feel today?

It was a 50-50 ball that Tennessee easily could’ve come down with if McDonald doesn’t bat it away.

I have not seen a replay. If J. McDonald does come across the field to make a play on the ball, is that a touchdown? Does anyone have a clip of the last play to post to watch J. McDonald’s effort on this play. Thanks and Hook”em

We have not. I don’t like splitting Longhorn fans. Though I’m guessing it’s probably 50-50 on this topic.

To keep my bias out of it....here ya go. In the Texas Longhorns' 24-23 comeback win over the Ohio State Buckeyes on September 12, 2026, defensive coordinator Will Muschamp's secondary extensively utilized dynamic "cushion" and "off-coverage" alignments—frequently backing up 10 to 12+ yards off the line of scrimmage—specifically during the second and third quarters. [1] 1. The Strategy: Neutralizing Jeremiah Smith The defensive game plan shifted to this deep alignment to counter Ohio State’s explosive star wide receiver, Jeremiah Smith, who was completely dictating the deep passing game early on. [1, 2] Smith exploded for 8 catches and 164 receiving yards, including a devastating 43-yard touchdown catch against Julian Sayin's passes. To prevent getting burned deep over the top, the Texas cornerbacks and safeties routinely conceded massive underneath cushions, choosing to back peddle deep and tackle after the catch rather than press at the line of scrimmage. [1, 2, 3] 2. The Play Differential and The Adjustment While this deep, 12-yard-off alignment successfully limited Ohio State's vertical chunk plays later in the game, it allowed the Buckeyes to consistently sustain drives via short passes, building a massive 23-3 lead deep into the third quarter. [1] However, the strategy ultimately paid off as the game wore on: The Fourth-Quarter Blanket: By keeping everything in front of them, the Texas defense forced Ohio State into longer, more tedious drives. The Turnaround: In the fourth quarter, the front seven finally collapsed the pocket, allowing the secondary to tighten its constraints. Texas held the Buckeyes entirely scoreless in the final 15 minutes. [1] The Final Play: The ultimate vindication of the deep alignment came on the game's final play, when defensive back Graceson Littleton dropped back into deep coverage and intercepted Julian Sayin to seal the 24-23 victory....yahoo sports Tennessee The Late Breakdown The defensive statistics look incredibly dominant, but the tight coverage finally slipped on Tennessee's penultimate drive. With 1:22 remaining in the 4th quarter, Faizon Brandon finally escaped the pressure and threw a 30-yard touchdown pass to Mike Matthews, which brought the score to 20-17. That single 30-yard play was what prompted the coaching staff to pull the secondary back into that ultra-deep, 12+ yard "prevent" alignment on the final drive, ensuring they didn't get beat over the top a second time. I can add the prevent d mentioned later on. Generated by google AI. Guess thats making it up too?? Ref Hill...23 and 24 he had a high blitz rate. 25 when he had Simmons really starting to develop he dropped into coverage a lot.

I hope it happens again because it was funny. But only if we win.

I was confused when people in the game thread kept saying “he does this often.” I believe that was his first unsportsmanlike conduct call of his career at Texas.

8 sacks against OU, and I’ll do it for him

Happy we aren't either....both are total crap shows. We had our time in the desert...time for a natty...I'm ready.

Maybe he should dig a grave and piss in it lol

Sean Miller and staff say him recently. Doubtful, but I’ll check

Is the staff seeing Black tomorrow? Think he is going to be at the OTE pro day.

And Colin Simmons tied Dronette’s sack record.

Hoping to get tickets for the Texas Vs Baylor game here in San Antonio🤘

Collin Simmons and his "Urinating on the field" simulation is the first taunting / celebration penalty I can think of since 1990 (or maybe 1989) During the OU game, Shane Dronette sacked the sooner QB and simulated digging a grave with an imaginary shovel. Flag comes out and first down sooners.. My favorite one from recent memory was the guy from Mississippi that crawled like a dog and raised his leg to mark his territory. I hope this doesn't ever happen again, but it will probably around the year 2043

RIP. Tragic ending for a great player from Texas.

*Hire an OC

How are the tee times coming along?

The SEC Shorts group used it today as a "celebration" for Florida to try when being released from Mediocrity Prison.

Awesome. I know we need more to be mad about. 🙄

I have two ARDs myself.
