If Bijan has me one on one in the open feild I'm walking to my sideline. I know I know but trust me as bad as that looks it'll still look better than what he's going to do to me and over 75% of professionals.

Stanford is too young and rattled now, get it over with Texas.

Big Volleyball Match vs Stanford
I have a neice that stands 6'2" as a sophomore. On the volleyball court she's uber athletic, on the basketball court she's clumsy. 🤫 don't tell her I said as much.

A 9-0 run can't be good in any sport lol I know enough to know that much

I won't lie to you, there isn't much I know about volleyball other than best out of 5 wins. But I do know what it looks and sounds like when the ladies are taking hard swings.

Two DT commits visiting Saturday
The defensive tackles play with far better leverage. So much so they are getting real push against the rush. Every now and again they get too far up field and create rushing and cutback lanes. All and all I enjoy Baker much more than Bo.

USA Today: Arch Manning is just ... average? That's how he looks for Texas
Nope 🤣 we are enamored with ourselves and don't listen to outside noise. We are the University of Texas, not the University of USA Today. Their opinion doesn't matter.

I like the way you watch football and not just look at it.

Thoughts on No. 7 Texas' surprisingly sloppy 38-7 win over San Jose State
Year 3 yes, but year one of this roster with far less experience and twice the expectations.

Ohio State has just as many flaws as anyone else. They had 200 yards against Texas. 200 and the run game or run defense didn't exist. They may end up winning it all, nothing they've shown says this is their identity offensively and to win it all you need something to lean on. What is that for Ohio State? Can't say the passing game, can't say the running game, they crossed the 50 twice in four quarters. They are not the clear front runner.

Do you remember 1st year Quinn and how everyone swore up and down he couldn't read defenses when the reality is he was unsure of what he was seeing? In year 2 he was throwing not only with anticipation but throwing guys open. The good thing is this isn't an offense lead team and we don't need it to be. Next year when the defense is young and we lose key contributors we will need top notch Arch. Right now we can still win while Arch gets on the job training.

Even in basketball you kind of know. Barring that pesky 16 seed knocking someone off usually you end up with top teams going in the season competing to cut down the nets. You're right it is early, but with two games you have enough data on what teams want to do and what they need to clean up to actually accomplish their goals. No one right now is as good as they seem nor or they as bad, but issues are starting to bubble. Later on we'll look back and know if those concerns were warranted or were we like fans do are just over analyzing.

Look around the college football landscape and you won't find any team to point at and say that's the team to beat. The darling right now is Oregon, because they beat a very bad OSU team. Their flaws haven't shown as much because in both of their wins they've been able to out athlete everyone. Wait until Dante Moore gets to face a defense that wants and has the ability to take away Oregon's strengths, and I don't care who or what era Oregon is playing in, after all the crazy uniforms, the first thing that comes to mind is SAWFT!

Florida? Really?
Anyone can lose to anyone anywhere on any given Saturday. There's no reason to be concerned. Too many people here assume that any team we play will be at their best while Texas will be at their worse. Texas can't be as immature and undisciplined as they were yesterday and beat Florida, but let's be honest here, it won't take a Herculean effort either. Florida has just as many issues if not more than Texas with Billy Napier being the most pressing.
