...and there it is.

Wowsers...I guess that's what kind of game we have. Need some trickeration to get things going.

Cant fault the defense


They had those guys off the field and forced a punt


Yet the special teams decided they needed to play another series of downs


UCLA 2.0


deja vu

What did I tell you fucks when they got rid of Akina?
And you bastards were all high on the new coaches, and talking smack to me.
We go from the most consistently hood special teams in can to this.

I'm not going to argue that ST is great or anything, but come on. Baylor did a good job selling the punt and getting that fake off.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

It doesn't matter if Baylor sells it or not....


The margin of error for Texas is microscopic. The defense essentially shut them completely down except for special teams giving them free possessions.


4 missed FGs, a kick out of bounds, 3 big punt returns allowed, 2 running into the punter first down penalties, faircatching at the 1 yard line, blocked FG touchdown allowed, fake punts allowed, fucking up a coin flip....


Just off the top of my head so far this season.


No defense is good enough to overcome a special teams that actively undermines everything.

 

[longhorn718]

Defense is tired and still a great stop there! Keep it going!

 

[longhorn718]

SACK!!! YES!!!

 

[longhorn718]

Argue about the ST all day. The more concerning problem is that the offense is completely hapless.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

That's gotta be ball game, unless Texas can reel off three defensive touchdowns in 11 minutes.

Stranger things HAVE happened, but...

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

I think Texas needs to simply punt on 1st down


Just keep playing defense


If they play anything besides DEFENSE they look utterly inept.


Defense A++
Offense F
Special Teams F---


It is the same thing every week.


And eventually the defense gets so tired they give up some points in 2nd halves.

Yeah, no shame at all from the defense. Outstanding game plan.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Just let Jerrod Heard play some....
I don't care about redshirts.
Swopes is the slowest running quarterback ever. He has offensive lineman speed.


At least Heard can run around and avoid the pass rush sometimes.


There is zero future with Swopes. Get the freshman some reps.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

The FINAL SCORE will be completely and utterly misleading


Texas shut them completely down for almost 3 quarters until the defense finally waived the white flag.


They could not play against both the Texas offense and Baylor offense

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Ahhh dammit...there goes the shutout.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Fucking stupid ass penalties by the Bears all day

 

[longhorn718]

Pity points. Yay. No shutout.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Texas is getting tired of moral victories.


They defensively dominate another high octane offense for most of the game, but cannot muster any offense to help out.


And then a bunch of points happens late versus a totally gassed beyond belief defense.


Kansas freaking shut down this team.


Everybody who plays Texas will have a monster defensive day.


Just play the freaking freshman already. There is no reason whatsoever to keep trotting out Swopes.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Derp McCoy would at least be able to muster a first down.


If they get 5 yards on a drive it is a good drive.


The defenses don't even bother to cover the receivers. They just put 11 men in the box.


They know Texas cannot complete a single pass downfield.


This is the biggest waste of an elite defense.


I know how TCU or Florida feels now.

Fitting end: Texas makes a 4-and-1 stop, then throws a pick.
