The reason they lost to meatchicken was they didnt go vertical outside of a 2 minute drive (that they got a TD on) before halftime. The rest of the game they were getting 3 n outs trying to attack the teeth of the UM defense, which is fricking stupid

Egbuka and Smith are arguably the 2 best receivers in CFB, and their WR3 is a 5*. Texas has not played a single team all year thats even remotely as good through the air

The only way you guys win this is if Chip Kelly and Ryan Day go full retard and try to run the ball

Texas is a 4th and 13 and targeting call away from losing to the team that was picked last in the Big 12.

If they start Manning over Ewers I think it would be a tighter game. OSU had like 10 sacks yesterday against Oregon. I dont see how Ewers gets the job done

And people said Michigan only had a good defense, and what happened?



Texas' DTs are nowhere near as good as Michigan's. They are very good players, but they just aren't first rounders like Graham/Grant are.

I really like Texas' LBers/DE guys they have a lot, but if they don't get pressure on Howard in 2 seconds the they won't make an impact.

Texas has probably ten of the best 15 defensive players in this game and the better offensive line


Oh I would love to hear this. OSU has a DT ranked ahead of Texas' best DT, and OSU's DEs are destroying guys right now (both players are seniors who were top 5 players in their class so they are as talented as the top TX guys but 4th year college players). OSU has the best safety combination in CFB and very good corners. All that being said, and their LBer just won Rose Bowl MVP. OSU has the best defense in the country, and has played better offenses than TX has

OL I will give you based on reputation, but if the OL that played against ASU rolls into Dallas, Texas is losing by 30. OSU has given up 12 sacks, Texas has given up 33. OSU averages more ypg running the ball. So in reality, OSU has shown to be a better OL (missing 2 starters)

Hold up. Howard is prone to go brain dead at times. With some pressure he is gettable. It’s hard to play at the level that they are for three games in a row. UT is due a good game. I think it will be very close and a coin flip.

If Texas can generate a pass rush and shorten Will Howard's time in the pocket, their secondary is good enough to hold up against OSU's WRs. If Howard gets good pass protection, it won't matter how good the Texas secondary is.

I am not a Longhorn fan but I will be betting the Horns. Seems to work out that way.

I’d save your money. I have no idea what Texas team will show up. Yesterday’s game a microcosm of season. Ewers looks mediocre to terrible all game and then puts team on his shoulders in OT. Shrug
