Yea but OSU's OL is in front of a home crowd while the unit Texas has hasn't played together in a game environment and is going to a top 10 road atmosphere.

This is much different than last year's game when UT beat up on Michigan with returning players on the OL and at QB. So we will see but I think OSU's OL is going to be better than Texas' and that is the difference in my mind


That could very well be the difference, but Texas should also have a lot more available in this game as far as offense scheme. With Arch's arm and legs he can really stress a defense. With CJ Baxter returning the downhill run game will be seen unlike last year.

I think Smith will put up between 100-150 yards receiving, but i expect tOSU to have less than 100 yards on the ground. I have this game as more of a 21-17 Texas.

Is that a different Michigan donor than the BarStool Sports Michigan fan guy who is banned from your stadium??

I am going to enjoy watching the losing fanbase from this game…don’t care which one it is. They are both awful.

Maybe. I think the Ewers dislike is kind of overblown as he was pretty good in most games but Arch certainly offers more. Blue was a matchup nightmare against OSU which you may not have out of the backfield.

I worry more about sark’s play calling than the OL. We all saw his abysmal play calling against georgia and osu last year with a veteran OL. I will continue to assume more of the same until he proves me wrong.

OSU 24 - good guys 16

The Ewers hate was definitely over blown. It will be interesting to see how the 2 starts and 2 years of sitting on the bench helps Manning. You'd love to have real experience at QB going into a game like this, but both QBs lack that.

As far as Blue, Texas doesn't have a replacement to him. Wisner will fill that role to the best of his ability I believe.

tOSU better not sleep on that kid... he is pretty darn good.

The only thing I don't like about him is that his mother won't let anybody call him "Trey"... Instead we have to call him Travarius.... or Travatonius... or whatever it is exactly.
