Seems the game has slowed down for James Simon. I would like to see a year better Simon get the carries between the tackles.

I'm for 16 teams in a CFP with home games for 2 playoff weeks for the higher seeds, then two Semifinals at the bowl games and a CFP NC at a bowl game. Could keep CCGs, not a big deal but I would prefer to hold on to this tradition. I want to win the SECCG once before it goes away. That Clemson at Texas CFP game in DKR was awesome! Would love to get 1 or 2 DKR playoff games for the CFP. Best chance of getting 2 home CFP games is a 16 team CFP. Would rather not have a portion of teams getting a bye week, would not need to happen in a 16 team CFP. The mismatches in round one would be more deserved by having the better resume before the CFP. The first round of a 24 teams CFP (9-24 playing) would have more questionable and likely undeserving teams in the mix. You have 8 teams with a bye in week 1. 2nd week will likely have some mismatches, often by chance due to large field and inconsistent seeding. You very likely lose all CCGs.

Fantastic detail, insightful and well reasoned Jeff!! 👏 🤘

Our secondary looked better than last season. The emerging Kobe Black and Jonah Williams along with the experience and talent of Jelani McDonald solidified the safety position. Good to have Gideon back coaching the safety position. Phillips got the most snaps at CB and held up well, only a ticky tack call went against him when the ref was at a bad angle to see the interactions imo. CB Roberson quietly had a pretty good day. CB Mascoe had tackling issues. His coverage was OK but TXSt was just a bit better at times. NB Littleton is proven at NB and had a big play. CB Mathews played sparingly but he looks the part. Biles has the athleticism and ball skills to be an asset in pass coverage or effecting the QB blitzing. Areas of concern in pass defense. Cryer doesn't have the quickness or speed or change of direction to be a good cover LB. I'm not a fan of moving Colin from rushing the passer at Edge to playing off ball LB.

Not true. Sikorski has experience at C at Texas this spring and it has been widely covered including here at OTF. He is experienced player and bigger and stronger than Connor. Cojoe played plenty of guard in HS. Did not play LT until his senior year. Did Flood make sense this past season? He moved a zero experience, true freshman Brooks from tackle to guard on game week or game day. 😂 Furthermore I said "Wish we could go back to spring ball and adjust OL." This is a coulda woulda shoulda hindsight OL starting 5 remark. I'm pointing out how Flood could have played it and made things arguably better. Watch Cojoe. He can play. He may be one of our best 5.

Yes, transfer OL Sikorski played C in spring ball at Texas. I don't have Connor at guard. I have 6-6 339 Andre Cojoe at G. Cojoe heavily featured at right guard alongside right tackle early in his high school career. He was widely recruited by major recruiting services as an interior offensive guard prospect. He eventually transitioned to left tackle for his senior season.

During the Longhorns' spring practice session, Sikorski picked up a larger workload at center to showcase that flexibility, particularly after a knee injury sidelined teammate Jackson Christian. Heading into the season, reporters and depth chart projections from platforms like OnTexasFootball tracked him as a key depth piece capable of backing up both guard spots and Connor Robertson at center.

Sikorski and Seymore continue their battle to start at LG. Who wins the LG job? Or is there a rotation at LG? Could we have an OL shakeup this week or after Ohio St? Wish we could go back to spring ball and adjust OL. I would like to see the below OL. Believe we could pass block just as well and certainly run block better, especially on the right side.... LT 6-7 325 Goosby LG 6-4 315 Baker C 6-4 335 Sikorski RG 6-6 339 Cojoe RT 6-7 317 Siani Is 6-6 339 Cojoe one of our best 5? Think he might be. Connor is a fine leader and had a good day pass blocking. Believe the bigger Sikorski has more upside as a run blocker at C than Robertson. Big Cojoe could be a good G. We saw a similar move when big Leonard Davis moved from tackle to guard for Dallas Cowboys and earned 3 consecutive Pro Bowls while being a stout run blocker. Playing Cojoe more this season could help him for next season.

I saw it live. Crazy finish. Thought WMU should have won with 0 on the clock. I read the rule this am. Makes sense. But I'm not sure I buy the clock on the replay tweet. People can manipulate a tweet to read 1 second left next to the highlight.

USC has a cupcake but they are doing what you are supposed to do to a cupcake. 28-0 Halftime | 312yds USC vs 102 yds SJSU. | 6.9ypp USC vs 3.9ypp SJSU Playing many freshmen per TV. USC plays 5 ranked teams #2 O, #17 WA, at #18 Penn St #1 OHST L at #6 IU - --No ND Maybe 8-4, likely 9-3 with a chance at 10-2 for #14 USC in 2026? USC looks improved to me. But need to see em play somebody decent. [PS USC crowd is pathetic, some areas mostly empty in the stadium.]

Read Cole Hutson did declare for the 2026 NFL Draft per local news New SEC rules seem to prevent Cole's return to Texas football. Did Cole get an exception? **EDIT** **Looks like Bobby B, etc say seniors don't have to declare. Per Bobby, Hutson did not declare so he is not in violation of the new SEC rules.** Hook Em Cole Hutson!

Classic country. Amazing lady with a generous spirit. RIP Dolly. Bit of trivia.....Dolly wrote "I Will Always Love You" and "Jolene" in 1973 in a single day.

QB Brandon is a terrific dual-threat talent but zero experience at this level. Glad we are playing the true freshman QB in game 1 of SEC play. Muschamp will have a plan to confuse him, keep him bottled up and attack him when the situations arise. Muschamp at Florida did a masterful job in the 2nd half vs A&M Manziel. FL 20 and A&M 17 (5 punts, 1 Fumble 0 pts by A&M in 2nd half)

Great to read Cojoe is healthy and playing well again. Former Penn State OL Landon Tengwall breaks down the play of Cojoe before his injury, many impressive moments as a run blocker. We were just running out the clock then so not much on film as a pass blocker. No doubt today Cojoe can pass block well considering he is up against our best pass rushers. Like Sark, Colin gave Cojoe high praise. Cojoe looks to be as fit as ever. If Seymore or Sikorski struggle, we have Hutson or Chatman or Coleman but our best option is likely Cojoe. Cojoe is now likely one of our 5 best OL. I'm for starting our 5 best. I'm for big 6-6 339 lbs Cojoe starting at LG. Nothing negative on Seymore or Sikorski, I just think Cojoe is better than both in run blocking and pass blocking. This season if necessary, Cojoe could backup LT or RT (played RT before his injury). If necessary, Siani could also play LT (played LT at WF last season). Baker could also move back to RT if necessary. We have great starters at tackle with Goosby and Siani along with multiple ways to deal with 1 tackle injury.
