Kafka – I like all your predictions. They are on the money. If most of those work, we win comfortably, will be interesting to see reaction of fans at large. Most know better on this site.

Mack said he wants Malcolm Williams to see more time.

He always says these things as if the matter was completely out of his hands.

There’s usually one of these issues annually, and it’s typically an offensive player.

The Longhorns should take out the Sooners this year. We better come to play. But, on the field, we have the best team.

I predict:

Colt will throw to Greg Smith in the red zone and Greg will catch it.

Chiles will throw a pass, probably to Colt.

Chiles will be thrown a deep pass.

Colt will throw into double coverage (to Ship)and get intercepted.

Colt throws a pass off the wild horn.

Colt completes a deep pass to a TB (probably Fozzy) who is lined up as the 5th WR.

Buckner catches at least 6 passes.

Bradford has to leave the game for injury for at least one play.

OU passes short (many screens) and runs almost exclusively.

UT wins.

Looks like the holding excuses are locked and loaded.

torre,

Demarco Murray played against us last year. He was shitty, but he played.

I think we’ll see Colt more on the move than in any previous game this year. Whether that’s on purpose or just him improvising doesn’t matter, but I have a feeling well see this happen on a few 3rd and 6 or 7’s, whick will keep an extra couple drives going. That ends up resulting in 7 or 10 points by the end of the game.

This game is definitely about our offense. I would say we have been in a slow but steady decline since Ok. St. last year. Even against tOSU, we sputtered for much of the game before Colt ripped their hearts out. Our crapfest schedule so far this year makes things even more difficult to gauge. Have we been holding back? The first possession will tell a lot – if we don’t come out sharp at the midpoint of the season against our biggest rival, it is safe to say we are not MNC caliber and time to seriously ratchet down the expectations. I think we can count on the D holding serve as long as the O or ST doesn’t spot them the ball inside our 20 as we have been wont to do this season.

11 am Saturday cannot get here soon enough.

“They’re going to throw it backwards.”

Duh, how else would you expect them to throw a screen to Chiles?
