It pains me to say but i think both matchups favor the home teams. That being said do yall remember last year. Being a play or two away from the title game hurt bad and i dont think either team will make it that far

"The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody has decided not to see"

I say this as a guy who in general likes Notre Dame, don’t hold it against me guys. Note Dame does not deserve to get into the playoffs this year. Texas should be in over them. Miami also has a good case of getting in over ND as well. I talk sport with a lot of aggies, once again don’t hold it against me guys, and even the Aggies agree Texas should be in over ND. I’m still on the fence about canceling the future non-con games against OSU, Mich, and ND. I still want those games and I think if we are really a national championship level team we can win those games or at least win enough games to make the playoffs but I will absolutely lose my mind in 2028 /2029 if we beat ND and they get into a playoff over us because of their schedule.

Attributing Sark's success to changes in the College Football landscape is silly. If Herman and Sark are the same level coach / program manager, then why is Sark employed and Herman is sitting on a couch. Have all the other ADs in the country missed something? Was Florida Atlantic the only school to see his brilliance? Does Nick Saben have a history of hiring fools who cant coach?

Heck yes quinn!

Hey a win is a win. Ugly wins beat any type of loss

I don’t route for injuries, but I also don’t route for OU

Hey, if your going to stink, stink big and get the benefits. Tank for Arch or at the very least get out of some terrible contracts.

I know we are a few days out from the game but thank you for being polite and reasonable. Best of luck to your teams season and i hope you still check in even after the Longhorns are able to defeat your very talented buckeyes. Such historical programs

I whole heartedly agree.

Current Roster excluding walk ons Seniors: DJ Campbell (5 Star), Cole Hudson (4 Star) Juniors: Connor Roberson (3 Star), Neto Umeozulu (4 star) Sophomore: Brandon Baker (5 Star), Jaydon Chatman (4 Star), Andre Cojoe (3 Star), Trevor Goosby (4 Star), Connor Stroh (3 Star) Freshman: Nick Brooks (4 Star), Jackson Christian (3 Star), Devin & Jordan Coleman (3 Stars), Daniel Cruz (4 Star), Nate Kibble (4 Star) Incoming class: John Turntine (4 Star), Nicolas Robertson (3 Star), Max Wright (3 Star) Transferred out: Malik Agbo, Payton Kirkland, Sawyer Gorman-Welch Information was based on 24/7 I feel like Kyle Flood has a respectable OL pipeline and that there is enough talent on campus to protect Arch and have a quality run game. However, the argument could be made that we are thin at tackle and Flood has landed less elite prospects since the fantastic pancake factory class. Time will tell and imo will really depend upon OL evaluations as no brainer recruits are hard to find and expensive.

@LovingBuckeyeappreciate your insight and your respectful replies. It's really easy to be a jerk online. My prediction is a slow start for both offenses. I think both teams will struggle to move the ball outside of explosive plays. That could put texas up at the half or the buckeye WRs might make some splash plays. I think both offenses will pick up in the second half. OSU's lack of depth on the DL will enable texas to more consistently move the ball in the second half which should lead to points and the lead. This should force OSU into more passing situations where the texas pass rush should be the difference maker in the game. Ultimately i have Arch and the texas pass rush over coming a very balanced and talented squad at there house. I see texas running the ball and the clock to end the game rather than Arch needing to pull off a miracle in the 4th. Either way both teams are likely playoff teams.

One of my favorite players of that class. Glad to hear he is killing it

OL takes a step back in pass blocking but looks improved in run game. Receivers are unproven but i dont think it will be a huge issue. My two biggest concerns would be how the secondary looks, hard to loose the Thorpe winner and be the same. Have we solved the red zone scoring issue. Field goals will not be enough against OSU elite playmakers.

Yeah i understand why Texas didnt want to be in it but I still wish they would have. They are like a specter over the other teams
