The Finest of Burnt Orange Kool-Aid: Juggernaut Loading

[thatdude2]

I think this Texas team has all the potential to become a true juggernaut.

I went into Saturday wanting to see the offense rush for 250+ yards against Texas State, while Arch Manning threw for 160+ yards and accounted for three total touchdowns. The one thing I miscalculated was Texas State playing single-high coverage and loading the box to stop the run.

And that is the conundrum every defensive coordinator and head coach is going to have to face against this Texas offense.

What makes it even more difficult is Will Muschamp’s defense. This defense is not going to allow an offense to dictate the terms of the game or simply control the clock. It is going to put pressure on opposing offenses to make plays.

The remaining question is: What can our offensive line and tight ends do when teams lighten the box?

Because once Texas starts going up by multiple scores early, it becomes a death sentence for opposing teams. And we already know what Steve Sarkisian can do with an opening script when he has future NFL-level players at his disposal.

This, my friends, is the beginning of something special.

The makings of a juggernaut are here. 🤘🏾
