I truly hope our offense comes to play today. This will be the first defense worth a damn we are playing against all season. Yes, that includes the Iowa State game.

We put 45 on their D and OSU put 38 on them. IMO, you need to make sure you bring your D. Ehlinger is a true dual threat and those big WR's are a tough cover. Should be a good game if both teams show up. Both you wankers need to lose.

Thread is premature, dunce.

Side bar....just showed highlights from the ISU/KU game. Butler is a beast. Has scored twice already for ISU. He hurt us (174 yds/2 TD). WV knows his name (107 yds/1 TD). TT knows him (148 yds/1 TD). TX had better respect him or may be a long day for them.

Purdy throws a ton of jump balls to that guy. It’s pretty much their passing game now

The tall WR's in the B12 are a difficult cover. Ya'll burned us with yours. Butler hurt us and BU's Mims and Hurd are tough covers. DB's are going to need to grow. Hard for a 5'10" to cover 6'4".

Texas is actually built better vs big WRs. Both corners are large and physical. They have more issues vs small shifty guys. That said QB puts it high enough 6’5” beats 6’1”

Problem was Mike either wouldn’t call for safety help or kept trotting out a damn safety who guarded the hash marks.

West Virginia now favored. Just came out that starting Safety is also out

Ours or yours?

Texas, hence why the line has flipped

I knew about the DL loss and figured it had moved some already

Should be a good one regardless, always seems to be at least a decent game.

Not related to the safety but
Wheelers only missing 1 or 2 series right?
