FOX CFB Hype Machine Gearing Up for 8/30

Can’t come soon enough.

Horns should feel a little disrespected.  From the hype video, you would think the only great player we have on our team is Arch.

Ohio State fans are very confident that their defense will be elite once again. Ohio State fans believe they have the best secondary in CFB, and one of the top 3 linebacker units.

Fair enough. Good luck to your Horns on 8/30, and hopefully you are making the trip! For Horns fans who went to Ann Arbor last season and who will be also making the trip to Columbus, I would to hear your comparison between the two campus’, atmospheres, etc

Will be interesting to see without Jim Knowles.

I think a big reason we aren’t as worried as a lot of outsiders think we should be is because Knowles didn’t take any staff with him (except for maybe some analysts that we never heard of). All of the position coaches return. We also have alot of faith in Ryan Day’s ability to make great hires, so we have a lot of faith in Patricia.

Any concerns with your team through the first week or so of practice?

Our concerns going into fall camp were QB, RB, and DL.

From everything that’s been reported, the running backs (James Peoples from San Antonio will be RB1 with CJ Donaldson Jr, transfer from WVU, as RB2) have been impressive and the defensive end room is talented and deep.

There still isn’t any depth at DT. The starters (Eddrick Houston & Kayden McDonald) are very good, but if one of them get injured, or when they need to take plays off, Texas should have a pretty big advantage on the interior when they have the ball.

So I will say our biggest concerns are

1. Neither of the QBs are experienced, will they be ready for Texas’ defense week one? Or will they look completely out of their element.

2. DT depth

3. Matt Patricia being the DC.

I would say #1 and #2 and then there’s a pretty big gap between those two and our third biggest concern.

What about for Texas fans? Where are you guys the most and least confident at this point in fall camp?

We need to stay healthy. Determine QB2 .

How are you guys feeling about your OL? From a distance, I look at Texas replacing 4/5 starters from last year and the backup RT getting lost for the season, and I think there’s no way they get the better of Ohio State’s defense.

Are Ohio State fans wrong for feeling this way? It doesn’t seem like UT fans or the national media have the same concerns, so maybe I’m missing something.

Our OL will take a step back in my opinion.
