    I’m not trying to argue or prove anyone right or wrong here, but I’m also curious to hear more details. Of course real “evidence” is likely impossible, but how did it all work? How involved were the head coaches? Or were they intentionally kept away from the obviously illegal acts? I appreciate any insight.

    OU’s injury status got worse over the bye. That’s not supposed to happen.

    This board would be full of this…

    It’s odd that such a nit-picky, flag-happy ref crew was not on top of this.

    We earned #1. Results against good teams matter more than looking good against bad teams. I’m glad people vote on strength of record and not just the eye test. If it was the other way around, the college football season would eventually be full of even more cupcakes and boring games. As a fan with no real stakes in the game, I feel blessed that we have so many big games Sep-Dec. It’s so much more fun (as a non-doomer) to watch multiple huge matchups every month, instead of boring Notre Dame type games. It would be so lame for them if they lose in the first round or two of the cfp because they’re not battle tested at all. We are by far the most battle tested undefeated team right now. That’s why we’re #1 🤘

    38-10 🤘

    Love Bijan! Still, this reads like the Athletic started this effort with the goal of digging up dirt on him, and they were disappointed to find nothing. That entire group seems intent on tearing people down, especially those connected to Texas. Eff em!

    The only team that could have an assistant coach say this with any honesty is UTSA. On lunch with the coaches this week they were talking about how coaches will often run the team extra hard in practice on weeks with “cupcake” games, just to build conditioning for future tougher opponents. Hence the players are often more exhausted and have weak jelly legs against easier opponents. That could explain the team looking less physical and playing “soft” last Saturday. Might also explain the injuries.

    Conflicting information is confusing to say the least. BV is probably the least trustworthy source though. He’s got a lot more skin in the game
  11. HookEmLonghorns
    Do you happen to also write for the Athletic?
  12. HookEmLonghorns
    45-20 Texas

    Hero Kanu last year

    Our D line is going to wreck OU
  15. HookEmLonghorns
    Good call! Almost 6
  16. HookEmLonghorns
    We’re going to be ranked #1 the rest of the season.

    Channeled Nostradamus on this first play prediction:
  18. HookEmLonghorns
    Looks like Goosby is gonna play a few downs
  19. HookEmLonghorns
    Kobe Black surged late in camp
  20. HookEmLonghorns
    45-10 good guys win
  21. HookEmLonghorns
    12 personnel, Hollywood run to the left. Just to show everyone that we’re improved from last year, even without Goosby.

    Great analysis, thanks. I know a lot of people disagree with me but I’d much rather have our schedule than Notre Dame’s. I want to watch as many great games as possible this season. I don’t want to watch 9+ predetermined blowouts, followed by a relatively untested team going into the first game of the cfp with the potential to immediately go home. Of course I want the natty, but that’s not promised to anyone. And if I had to choose, I’d rather have 3-4 (hopefully 5) months of meaningful games week-after-week than a few scattered weeks of decent opponents and a slightly higher likelihood of winning it all. The up-and-down journey through the season is a huge part of what makes the game so damn captivating and fun to watch. I love how this season is setting up. Can’t wait for it to start!
  23. HookEmLonghorns
    What a boring schedule though. I feel bad for their fans in a way.
  24. HookEmLonghorns
    A lot of jersey numbers to learn

    Explosive plays will be at a level we haven’t seen in recent memory. Texas will never be “out” of a game because we’ll have the ability to rack up points extremely quickly. Why? Can Coleman and Ryan Wingo (and potentially Bishop) are elite, and Arch is a deep ball junkie. Opposing defenses have to put enough guys on the WRs to not get torched deep. So Hollywood and Raleek - both known to be explosive- are gonna eat. Arch has legs too. I’m expecting way more highlight plays this year.
