TEXPECTATIONS 2017

[ElTexan]

Lots of good recruiting classes under our belt.
But this last one is soft.
Good sophomore qb.
Lost award winning rb.
We're going to be changing coaches, coordinators, offensive and defensive schemes for the 6th time in 4 years.
Schedule looks very tough.
I'm not sold on Herman as a guy who's going to bring the players together rapidly.

This sounds like a great fucking thread for your team board.

Just dropped in to shake my head at the thread title.

Dunce.

Don't worry. Some admin will move it there soon.
Posters can make millions of New posts that are solely about one team, and no one says peep. But I make this one thread once per year and y'all fall over yourselves about moving it to the team board. Hypocritical pansies.

Thinking about moving it to the OU board.

I just stopped by to vote potato salad.

Where's the fucking potato salad?????

Fail

 

[TheReal_NU]

Well,
Since there's no potato salad, I'm voting
10-2












Kansas scores an early TD on a blocked field goal, misses the PAT, but gets a late first half safety on a blocked punt that goes out of the endzone.
They get another safety on the opening kickoff of the second half whet the returner takes the ball out of the endzone, then unexplainable runs back into the endzone and takes a knee hoping for a touchback.
Texas scores late on a fluke play as both of KU's fans rush the field to tear down the goalposts after defeating Texas for the second straight year. Apparently the Kansas QB was scared they were coming after him so he runs into the tunnel for a safety.




Final score 10-2.
QED

If only we had a thread for expectations or predictions.

If only we had a thread for expectations or predictions.

If they posted in that thread no one could give them attention and they would be just like the rest of us.

For the others that come after me in this thread so you can have an informed vote. No Texas player drafted in 2014 NFL Draft. Only one Texas player drafted in 2016 NFL draft. Beat Oregon State and California in bowl games, were blown out by the Oregon Ducks and Arkansas in bowl games. Played three of their four bowl games in their home state of Texas, went 1-2 in bowl games played in Texas.

Texas during this decade 46 wins 42 losses, four losing seasons.
2010 5-7
2011 8-5
2012 9-4
2013 8-5
2014 6-7
2015 5-7
2016 5-7

Uh, shouldn't this thread be titled "Jexpectations?"

Mods, please fix the title for El Jexan.

They ate it and it looks like it ain't setting to well with them. Lucky you got here late.

I think Texas makes a significant improvement this year under proper coaching, but I'm not quite sure they're over the hump yet. Their recruiting class this year isn't exactly going to pull them out of the whole, maybe maintain the status quo. I think 8 or 9 wins is reasonable but given the B12 is soft, it wouldn't necessarily be shocking to see them win more because Texas still probably has more talent than everyone in the B12 other than maybe OU.

Scores only dunce.

Or was that a score? If so, my bad.

 

[Lance Armstrong]

a lot of experience finally on this roster, if they move Malik out to his natural outside linebacker position and we can get two of the corners to play up to potential, defense should be really good. Offense will have an experienced sophomore QB coming back, one of the best left tackles in the country, ton of good WRs and Chris Warren at RB. If the rest of the oline is solid, should be a good squad. 9-3
