Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...

Simmons is actually surprisingly good against the run because he gets off blocks very well. Spence is not as good at DE stopping the run because he has shorter arms and doesn’t get off blocks as well. Now Vasek, Lance and Zina, that’s in their wheelhouse.

Hank’s part of the Daily Texan mafia. ;-) We’re building something similar at OTF. I can feel it.

I think he’s not 100pct so it wouldn’t change much for me.

Yesterday morning, I went with the over-under of three of the Texas injured players being able to play today. Well, three players were moved up from questionable to probable. Ryan Wingo Graceson Littleton Kade Phillips That means Colin Simmons and Cam Coleman remain questionable and are possible game-time decisions. ** I think it’s interesting how we got to yesterday’s injury report. As of yesterday morning, I was told Coleman and Simmons were actually unlikely to play and that one of the DBs was 50-50 at best. It was somewhat disappointing news overall because early in the week, Texas was hopeful Simmons could play. ** Now let’s talk about the game itself. Missouri has an offensive identity. Texas doesn’t, at least not a consistent one. Missouri has a solid defense. Texas has an elite one. Special teams feels like a draw, though Texas has had the steadier placekicker thus far. Both coaches are solid in game and time management IMO. Texas may have an advantage when it comes to depth of talent. But Missouri is plenty talented to win this game. Both teams are 6-2. And the game is in Missouri. On paper, this is a toss-up. In Vegas, it’s the same (Texas favored by just 2.5 points). The team that wins today will likely get on top early in the contest and then lean into their strengths. For Missouri, that’s its run game. For Texas, it’s the defense. First one to 17 points wins this game. I think the ball just might bounce the way of the Longhorns because the Horns’ defense are starting to create turnovers. Hook’Em! View full news story

I don’t think we’ve applied to be in the App Store. But Rick could answer that question better.

All feedback is welcome and it sounds like you have some real-world experience.

It’s new. We announced that we were going to move to the new redesign earlier this week, and then we made the move yesterday. Hope you like it! And let us know if you need directions to find anything you need (except touchdowns, Texas has to score those on their own).

Make sure you link your articles to the board over here!

This photo is from Dave Aranda’s house and was sent to us by an OTF OG. Notice the mini yard flag in the flower bed. He has not announced an agreement with LSU yet. But a picture is worth a thousand words.

Want to give a huge shout out to three interns for working on the design: Payton Sherman, Kumar Kharod and Justin Teall. And, of course, thanks to Rick Vasquez for implementing the final product. Please keep any questions/concerns coming our way. Thanks, Bobby

Sad. Young kids, too. Wishing his family all the strength in the world at this moment.

We are not. But we are for LSU.

It's fair to critique players. It's not to make fun of or mock them IMO. Unfortunately that's what that turns in to too often.

Nice meeting you. Thanks for stopping by. BTW - he met his wife at UT many moons ago and they're still causing trouble together. 😉 She's the one taking the picture.

Yep. Good stopping place.

Guilty. I'm the opposite of CJ.

My parents stop there for the kolaches. But for pecans and gifts for holidays, there's only one place IMO. Berdoll's does a really nice job with that. 🙂

Just want to let everyone know that we have a new local sponsor. It's Berdoll Pecans. OTF members can get 10pct off all orders for pecans, candies fudge, beef jerky, etc., when they use the promo code OTF at checkout. I've been going to Berdoll for 30+ years and can speak to the quality. It's a gift I get my parents and in-laws every year (and I get some for myself, too). Website is http://www.berdoll.com So if you want a little taste of Austin, use promo code OTF10 and get 10% off at Berdoll.

No need to follow for Texas. Not at this time.

I think Sark believes it's the explosive downfield plays. I'm not sure this team can execute those with the regularity of something that would also be described as bread and butter. What can they rely on every series or in crunch time?

Good message in the OP but it can devolve too easily. So I’m locking this, not deleting it.

Hire an OC you would want to be play caller if you couldn’t do it. Separate the job of Jeff Banks into two different divisions of labor. ST and TE. Figure out what’s wrong with the OL. If it’s coaching or just the fact that you need new blood, then make the call.
