Absolute nonsense. Florida will be improved and may be pretty good but who would you put your money on?
Maybe it is, maybe it isn’t. But I never made that claim

I mean this just isn't true. Texas outgained UGA by over 100 yards in the SECCG but couldn't run the ball at all.
I think it has to be OSU/UGA in either order. I would think OSU is first game for a "new" QB in an extremely hostile atmosphere, while the UGA game will probably be primetime against a team who over the last 5 years has been great on defense overall.
OU is neutral site so it has to be behind top 10 level teams on the road and UF is a tough place to play no doubt but UGA/OSU have been 2 of the best 3 teams over the last 5 years (or the best 2?)

Yards means jack shite if you can't score. Perhaps Sark has spent the entire offseason working on his goal line offense because, up to now, it fricking sucks

Yea he panicked against OSU on 2nd and goal for sure. Teams had problems against OSU at the goal line all year but you can't just give up after one try with a toss back 7 yards

it was an issue all season not just against OSU. It's been a problem for two seasons in a row.
We have no prayer of sniffing a title until he figures that out.

Honestly it's the same knock people had on Day before last year; he couldn't grind out the tough yards in big games.
Last year it happened. Some of it was having J. Smith on the outside which has to lighten boxes up a bit. Some of it was Chip Kelly who is a great run game guru. Some of it was having Judkins/Henderson in the backfield who can make a small hole into a 10 yard game. Some of it was getting the right attitude on the OL.
Last year before the semifinals I had watched prob 5-6 Texas games. They had all the "accolades" on the OL and top players, but I didn't see them really running it down people's throats like you would expect with the talent. I thought they solved it a bit against Clemson, but that was more the aberration than the rest of their games against good teams.
Sometimes it is the 3* or low 4* guys who are the down and dirty guys you would want in the alleyway, even if they aren't 6'6'' 315 and look perfect. Its hard to balance it out when you have top talent available though too

False TX is only dogs to OSU and UGA by 2.5. every other team they are they favorite to win.

I don't think Texas wins at Ohio St, at Georgia, at Florida. Main reason I think that is: 1. Their 7 SEC wins opponents last year went 18-38 in SEC play. So they could beat the teams in SEC that had a sub .333 SEC win percentage, but I don't think they can beat an at Florida with Lagway.

Still not sure why we're supposed to fear some bum arse QB when we've got arch and the much better supporting cast.
Lagway's stats were horrible. Sub 60% passer with less total TDs than arch last season with 7 more INTs.

Our run it down people’s throats back went out in camp.. He’s back this year. Thank God…
It’s funny. At the end of camp the three things that people in the know said would bite us in the arse, lack of inside power running game and lack of decent punter and field goal kicker… Bit us in the arse…
Play with the big boys, the holes in your team WILL show up…

Arch has nothing to do with how Lagway plays. Unlike soccer, basketball, hockey....guys don't play both ways in football. But follow closely this year. I think you'll love this sport.

How do you come to such a conclusion when some schmuck ranks a teams current schedule in order? He never said anything about other teams SOS, or compared.
Koreandawg must be an old Sarge alter, yes? Reading comprehension and obsession with Texas is aligned.
