FIRST HALF SYNOPSIS 

Think of every worst-case scenario for the Longhorns, and it happened. From the opening play that saw Raleek Brown fumble the screen pass Steve Sarkisian typically loves to throw to Ryan Wingo open games, to Cam Coleman tipping a diving catch into Ohio State defensive back Jaylen McClain's hands for an interception, to Ryan Wingo dropping a wide open touchdown pass, to Arch Manning taking two sacks, to UT failing to convert on a 4th and 2 that saw Wingo get tackled behind the line of scrimmage on a reverse. It was nothing but nightmare material for the Longhorns heading into the locker room. 

On the opposite side of the field, Ohio State more often than not took advantage of Texas' miscues, scoring 10 points off turnovers. Star Buckeyes wide receiver Jeremiah Smith crossed the century mark in the first half, catching six passes for 110 yards and a touchdown, surpassing his combined total over the last two seasons against Texas in two quarters. Sayin completed 12 of 16 passes (75%) for 192 yards and a score. The Longhorns were unable to get much pressure on Sayin until late in the second quarter with Lance Jackson and Colin Simmons getting home on pass rushes. 

Texas' playmakers have failed to show up and the Longhorns have a 17-point deficit with the ball going to the Buckeyes first in the third quarter.

Let #1 pick Arch ... Pass to his future #1 draft Cam - Wingo - Bishop… w 4th rnd picks Mosely and Smothers.  
 

get into a old school Texas scoring shootout btwn Arch Sayin and their wr

if Colin Simmons a true #1 pick  we get more sacks

if Will Muschamp still got it we get another extra turnover 

simmer them in late night heat…. And we win!

Texas wins by 18!

Must be his 1st day ever pretending to cover college football. 

[Gerry Hamilton]

Going to be a tremendous day around campus leading up to the game. This was already an elite atmosphere yesterday

[Joe Z]

I bet it is crazy out there at game day right now. Gerry on his 5th mayo corn dog, CJ on his 3rd street taco, Blake and Jeff are muted somewhere, Bobby off in the corner somewhere looking like this knowing he has to be up this early to cover the game.
