Based on. This team lost to Tech 🤣

Laugh all you want.  A&M lost to Auburn and by 24 to South Carolina.  Michigan lost to 6-6 UDub.  Florida lost to Miami by 24.  Vandy lost to Georgia State.  Arkansas lost to a team that went winless in the Big 12.  Kentucky lost by loads to Louisville.  OU lost to LSU by 20, was in a 2 point game with Houston for nearly the whole second half, and lost at home to South Carolina by 26. 

I defy you to find a credible ranking system (poll, computer, what have you, other than the suspect ESPN "Power Index") that has any of our opponents this season other than Georgia ranked above Arizona State.  They unanimously have ASU in the top 15, and most have ASU higher than that.  I'm talking Sagarin, Massey, Colley, Congrove, Anderson&Hester computer rankings as well as CFP, AP, and Coaches Polls.

Damn right! You can lose to anybody if you don't bring it. Ask Notre Dame. We haven't put anybody away recently with any breathing room

Texas is a bad match up for them in the trenches and overall talent. Yes Texas offense has been having issues, but don't underestimate Texas in this thing.

Breathing room or not, Texas will still beat these more often than not. Match ups matters.

I'm not.  From the beginning, I said I think Texas will win.  I just think a lot of people here are being way too dismissive of a good team.
