This game reminds me a bit of the first Georgia game. PSU hasn’t been particularly impressive offensively, but SMU has turned it over and given them consistently strong field position.

James Franklin makes his expected boneheaded playcall. Lucky for him, SMU looks almost as lost as IU did on offense.

What’s very obvious thus far is that these lower-tier playoff teams (IU, SMU) clearly are not physically ready to go up against elite defenses. I don’t even think ND and PSU are “elite” teams, but there are levels to this. I don’t think Bama and Ole Miss deserved to get in the playoff, but there’s no doubt they would not have gotten whipped like this.

You’re really good at avoiding the point, aren’t you? The POINT, whether you like PFF or not, is that he is a quality DT.

Okay, but you’re gonna tell me that any of these guys in the portal are better than Golden or that the coaches wouldn’t want him back for another year? And Bond IS a speed WR, hence my question.

@Gerry Hamilton do you think the Texas coaches are being cautious with WRs in the portal because they think there’s a chance they could get Bond and/or Golden for another year? I know Bond wanted to be one and done, but he’s not getting any 1st round draft grades anymore since that injury. Feels like he could benefit from another healthy season.

PFF has him rated as a top-10 DT in the country this year, so definitely a take.

I’m very curious why we are not on this list. The coaches know better than anyone what their needs and preferences are at DT, but this guy feels like a definite take and exactly what they’re looking for.

These little cockroaches are starting to become obnoxious.

That’s a good spot for him. I think he could tear it up against that level of competition.

PFF has Gusta as a top-10 interior DL this year. Feels like we should go hard after him.

I seem to remember him being pretty exciting. Wonder if we will be interested. Could be that big back that we’re currently missing on campus.
