OTF Premium About That Texas Defense… (Saturday PM)

[CJ Vogel]

I will have more Sunday, but the first text I received back from a source regarding the Saturday practice. 

“The defense is going to be unbelievable.”

Texas will be in full pads all of next week.

[McCoy2Shipley]

Cheers to that. I can’t wait to watch this team

[LonghornDiggah]

Wut?

You never read any preseason practice reports? I believed those just like I believe this one. Hopefully I won’t be disappointed this time. But they were equally emphatic.

This is like someone reviewing Baywatch and saying Pamela Anderson will look good in a bikini.

We also heard good practice reports in 2005 and 2009.

Which of those years did we have a returning All American or Fr All American at all 3 levels of the defense?

I do think the front 7 is as talented of a front 7 as I’ve ever seen at Texas. Questions remain at DB for me but I’m definitely hopeful Taaffe and the coaches get those guys ready to play.

I'm not worried about the DB's. Tons of talent waiting in the wings for their chance to get a spot. McDonald, Guilbeau have experience. Muhammed is that guy. Taaffe is our boy. Now they just need to pair with someone at S. I'm certain Williams will earn his way back, but I think there's a few guys there that could push in (one being McDonald) and the other likely Filsaime. Can't forget a guy like Black at CB.

Most of these guys have some experience and I think we'll be fine. But that's just my burnt orange glasses on take, lol.

The defense is absolutely stacked.  We're finally out of rebuild mode and into reload mode, and we have some damn good ammo.

From what I've been reading, the DBs are happy because they are going to be helped by a better pass rush.  The D-Line is happy because they think they might get a few coverage sacks.  And everyone is saying that the linebackers are always in the right place.

Dat's a long day for opposing offenses.
