Oklahoma Game Score Predictions
Texas 34 OU 13 But would not be surprised if we score in the 40s. If we can run the ball effectively, we should score in the 40s. OU might have a couple of explosives and get a late 4Q score but I would be surprised if they can keep up with us.

Cedric Benson statue in Midland
Prolific Midland Lee championship running back. Good on them to recognize and honor Cedric Benson and his family in this way. At Texas, El Ced got about all a runner could get on every carry given his abilities. He ran with such good pad level to take on defenders but stayed balanced so he could still move one way or the other if needed. Appreciated his effort, vision, technique and toughness. I can still remember replaying his TX runs in slow motion and watching his subtle moves to slip a defender or power between two defenders to fight for the extra inches. Cedric Benson was a joy to watch. RIP.

Trey moore
The hype was unfair to Moore. Moore had 11.5 sacks of his 14 sacks vs weaker teams (3 sacks vs 8-5 Texas St, 3.5 sacks vs 4-8 UAB, 3 sacks vs 2-10 East Carolina and 2 sacks vs 6-7 Rice). Moore got zero sacks vs the better teams like TN, USF and Tulane. Unrealistic to expect double digit sacks from Moore vs a tougher TX schedule. Our 5* true freshman Simmons is more explosive. Simmons is already our best pass rusher. Simmons already has 4 sacks in 5 games while playing fewer snaps than Moore!

Kelvin Banks Named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week
Hope Banks goes ahead of the LSU OT Campbell. Banks has outplayed him this year.

Just a little something I saw…
Agree. Vasek is healthy and looking good. Needs more snaps. Sark said the same earlier this season. We have played 4 games. Our best possible rotation vs the SEC looks like.. JACK: Sorrell or Vasek or Burke BUCK Burke or Simmons Moore Finkley I realize Burke is playing more Jack and Moore is playing fine at Buck but Burke played Buck all last year. In 2023, Burke (13 games) was better than Moore (4 games in 2024) based on snaps per production and disruptive plays. Burke has continued that trend in 2024 with his 4 games including better PFF grades. In limited snaps, Vasek has also been more productive based on snaps per production and PFF than Moore. Simmons is our best Buck situational pass rusher. Burke 41 tackles, 9 TFL, 5.5 sacks, 0 INT, 0 PD, 1 FF, 1 FR 0 TD (13 games) Burke 6 tackles, 2 TFL 0 sacks, 1 INT, 1 PD, 0 FF, 0 FR 1 TD (4 games) Vasek 4 tackles, 2 TFL, 1 sacks, 0 INT, 0 PD, 0 FF, 0 FR 0 TD (4 games) Sorrell 7 tackles, 2 TFL, 0 sacks, 0 INT, 0 PD, 0 FF, 0 FR 0 TD (4 games) Simmons 11 tackles, 3 TFL, 2 sacks, 0 INT, 0 PD, 0 FF, 0 FR 0 TD (4 games) Moore 7 tackles, 0 TFL, 0 sacks, 0 INT, 0 PD, 0 FF, 0 FR 0 TD (4 games) Finkley 4 tackles, 0 TFL, 0 sacks, 0 INT, 0 PD, 0 FF, 0 FR 0 TD (4 games)

OU has it ROUGH over the next two months
Sooners defense can't save them. OUsux lack of offense leads to 5-8 losses this season. Expect TN and Josh Heupel to humiliate ousux this week. Then the best of the SEC will do the same. SEC hates land thieves.

Texas New No. 1 In ESPN FPI Rankings
ESPN's mysterious and flawed FPI should be ignored by OTF. FPI isn't football science or an impartial computer formula; it is ESPN's secret proprietary hype ranking. UNI went on the road as a 28.5 pt dog and beat ND. 1-1 ND ain't #10.

Northern Illinois defeats ND
Was not expecting that loss. ND should drop significantly after a home loss to a 4 TD dog. ND hasn't looked top 12 good. ND is just not good enough on offense.
-
K Baker
Colins has been pretty good so far. Broughton has noticeably improved. PFF grades for Broughton and Collins are better this season. Their stat plays per snap is better under Baker. Broughton said Kenny Baker helped him on his technique. Recruiting hits, defense looking good and winning has Baker gaining momentum.

Myron Charles flips to Texas
Add manscaping OUsux alum Sherrone Moore! Our team did a number on his offense in the first 3 quarters. 🤘

Maybe. ND @ USC could be a loss. USC is improved.

Did two teams essentially punch their playoff ticket Saturday?
Pencil em in Gerry. Almost there. 11 to 12 more manageable games and it's done. Miami now seems like the favorite from the ACC. FSU is down and has a bad loss. Clemson got annihilated by UGA. Miami has a road SEC win. ACC is weak. Miami schedule is manageable. Skips Clemson in regular season. Gets FSU at home. Could road games at USF or at Louisville be their toughest remaining regular season games? They don't play a ranked team if FSU eventually drops out. Win the ACC and qualify. 12-1 could get in as well. ND got that SEC road win. ND has an even easier schedule than Miami for the next 10 games. At USC in their final game is their qualifier imo. But could lose it and still make it with a 11-1 record. Both need to avoid two losses to avoid the CFP debates but some 2 loss team(s) will make the CFP. Three losses and they are out of the CFP. But I doubt either has 3 losses since they may be favored in every game.

Texas A&M fan on Mike Elko
Who is this Mike Elko? Are you referring to Tickle Me Fat Elko?

Kevin Wynn
Wynn, Charles and Hilson on flip watch. FSU not living up to top 10 rankings as predicted by many here. If we take care of business, believe we get 1 or more to flip and come to Texas.

FSU goes down
Didn't watch but early reports say FSU didn't look good on offense. No surprise. On the Blake Munroe Call Your Shot....Like many, I posted earlier my #1 most overrated team this preseason is #10 FSU. Gerry had FSU. Blake thought FSU was also overrated. FSU has tougher opponents to play so more losses are likely. HOOK EM! Let's flip a FSU commit!

2024 Team Talent Composite Top 20 by 247Sports
2024 Team Talent Composite Top 20 by 247Sports 1. Bama plays six of the top 20 - #2, @8, @9, @17, 18 and 19. 2. UGA plays seven of the top 20 - @#1, @4, 5, 12, 17, 18 and @20. 3. OHST plays ONLY THREE of the top 20 - @6, @11 and 16. 4. TEXAS plays five of the top 20 - #2, @7, 8, 12 and @16. 5. Clemson plays ONLY TWO of the top 20 - @#2 and @13. 6. Oregon plays ONLY TWO of the top 20 - #3 and @16. 7. A&M plays six of the top 20 - #4, 9, 10, @12, @18 and 19. 8. OU plays seven of the top 20 - #1, 4, @9, 17, @18, @19 and @20. 9. LSU plays six of the top 20 - #1, @7, 8, @12, 15 and 20. 10. ND plays ONLY THREE of the top 20 - @#7, 13 and @15. 11. Penn St plays ONLY TWO of the top 20 - #3 and @15. 12. Florida plays EIGHT of the top 20 - #2, @4, 7, 9, @13, 14, @17 and 20. 13. FSU plays four of the top 20 - #5, @10, 12 and @14. 14. Miami plays ONLY TWO of the top 20 - @#12 and 13. 15. USC plays four of the top 20 - #9, 10, 11 and @16. 16. Michigan plays four of the top 20 - @3, 4, @6 and 15. 17. TN plays four of the top 20 - #1, @2, @8 and 12. 18. Auby plays five of the top 20 - @#1, @2, 7, 8 and @19. 19. MO plays four of the top 20 - @#1, @7, 8 and 18. 20. Ole Miss plays four of the top 20 - #2, 8, @9 and @12. The expanded SEC has 11 teams in the Top 20 Talent Composite and 6 in the top 9! SEC schedules are especially brutal this year; it will be interesting to see how much weight is given to SEC SOS when selecting for the 12 team CFP. MO and Ole Miss seem to have easier schedules than the other 9 SEC teams on the list. Yet they seem to have tougher schedules than most other teams not in the SEC. ACC has 3 teams on the list but only 1 in the top 12, Clemson. Miami has the easiest schedule of the 3, it avoids #5 Clemson and gets #13 FSU at home. The expanded B1G has 5 teams in the Top 20. Penn St, Oregon and OHST have more favorable schedules than most on the list. No surprise, Big 12 Lite is not represented in the Team Talent Top 20 Composite by 247Sports. Their conference champ may not deserve to be an automatic qualifier for the CFP. What are your projected teams in the 12 Team CFP?

Michael Fasusi Decision Time
Bobby on OTF just said Flood wanting to rotate more OL this season. We may have more trusted OL than in past years. Hoping our 2nd group can provide quality depth and quality snaps. Doubt it moves the needle with Fasusi this summer, but getting more young players game snaps is a positive for early development and future recruiting. Season may last a few games more than in the past so all the more reason to build more quality depth.

Defensive Recruiting
Fans are on alert. With this recruiting cycle, we're pot committed. TX must finish playing the hand. After the flop, we can better evaluate. Adapt or die.
