OTF has earned it, fantastic work! That is awesome Bobby! Happy for y'all! I was one of your first 1,000 YT subscribers. HOOK EM!

Good to read. Texas generally keeps recruiting the top talent if they are open to the possibility, especially at important positions if they project as being able to contribute early in their career. Our IDL depth chart is more attractive than OHST imo. We now have scoreboard on Ohio St and they are slipping this season.

No. False start, illegal formation, hold, fumbles, blocked kicks, missed FGs can happen. Teams have failed to score in those situations, that's a fact. It is absolutely the wrong decision. No doubt. Go ahead a get the 14 point lead.

A&M offense 457 yds, 26 first downs, Zero turnovers..... But only 9 pts and a 5th loss, Losers are now 1-5 in the SEC and 4-5 on the year.

LSU significantly outgained Alabama 457 yards to 285 yards in their November 7, 2026 matchup. LSU failed four times on fourth down (0-4!). LSU struggled in the RDZ, 4 trips but only 10 pts. Situational football cost LSU. LSU had the lead late in the 3rd Q. But Bama scored 21 unanswered to win 31 to 13.

I like the depth and physical attributes of Roberson and Mathews. But it feels better reading we probably have our experienced starters Littleton and Phillips ready to go. With Muschamp using Biles more effectively as a disruptor and to a lesser degree Cryer, we have continued to limit the run, affect the QB and play elite D, even without Colin. I believe in our D to give us a chance to win. But it won't be easy. I expect our D is going to bring out a more focused and intense Missouri. I wish Sikorski and Cojoe were teamed up so we might have a better chance to run the ball. A probable Wingo should boost our chances of scoring more. You know Wingo wants to play really well in front of his family and friends as he returns to his home state. This game likely comes down to some combo of turnovers, special teams, Sark calling a good game and our OL performance being improved. I believe this is a must win game for Texas and their CFP pursuit.

After the Monster bad deal was better understood plus the Sorsby stuff, I doubt Brett had enough support. Won't be missed. But I did enjoy TT getting slapped around when the other teams pushed Brett into action.

Good to read his positive prognosis after surgery. Hope Trevor makes a full recovery soon.

Good stuff Jeff. Thx. Will be interesting to see how it all unfolds. I hate that our checklist does not include a healthy Colin Simmons considering we are going up against a formidable offense with stars at QB and RB. We need a sudden, disruptive presence. Spence may need to transition to play the Colin Simmons pass rush role. If not Spence, then Vasek and Wesley rotating to stay fresh. Both need to play sound. No hero ball. Ole Miss QB and RB can make them pay. If Smothers and Cooper are injured it is time to give Simon some carries. Raleek will need help. We really need to run the ball and shorten the game. But we have not done that well. Can we do it vs Ole Miss? Doubtful so we very likely need to pass more to pre snap reads on first down or do real RPOs. Teams are trying to take away Coleman. TEs have not been consistent, difference makers in the passing game. Agree, we may need to spread Ole Miss out more often by inserting Bishop. Bishop has not gotten many targets but he has delivered at a high rate (10 catches for 120yds and 1 TD on just 14 targets). Raleek can't hold up well enough and consistently enough as a blocker vs the bigger, athletic defenders. Spread Ole Miss out and you can lighten the box. Then see if we can get RB Brown the ball in space. I'm all for good scheme to get the favorable matchups. But sometimes you can't scheme it up. You may need to lean on your personnel advantages even if they know it is coming. The OL is not dependable in short yardage. Baker or Robertson vs Echols is not a good matchup for Texas. By using Echols in the B gap Ole Miss often avoids a double team. TE Townsend could be used as an HB move blocker in the run game to open up a hole for our RB in short yardage. Could also use a jumbo set. Again, I would love to shorten the game and possess the ball for long scoring drives with some good rushing but that is not something we have done well other than the 4th Q vs Ohio St. And that was 4 downs to get 10yds. Maybe we can use the quick pass in spread to somewhat accomplish this goal. Hopefully we avoid 3 and outs and avoid losing the turnover battle again. Our defense will need all the help it can get without Colin vs this potent offense. Texas may need to score 30+ points to win.

Without a doubt Saban would say scrap what you are doing with OL development and OL coaching. Get a new OL S&C plan that is proven for explosive power. Get a new OL coach and hold him accountable. If you get this right, you will average over 5ypr. This will help you convert short yardage. With a good rushing attack you will find it is easier to play action pass and convert RedZone into TDs.

We aren't a team that can run short yardage up the middle well. And more importantly don't give a capable Florida offense a short field to get 3 or 7. Punt the damn ball and go into half up 17-3.

Appreciate the information and your thoughts Jeff. Not sure I got this right but I thought I heard OTF guest Ali Peek this am say Gators best CB that was injured is better and would play vs Texas.

Texas has played but two SEC games so the sample size is smallest for Texas. We played two of the better defenses on a ypp basis and two of the less challenging offenses.

Knew "it" was coming. Poooor Aggies. OUsux. Glorious. 😆
