We'll keep updating this as we become aware of additional ex-Longhorn performances...

Posted by HenryJames on October 15th, 2008 under Football

Scipio has taken a look at what Texas needs to do to win on Saturday. So I'm going to take a look at what Missouri needs to do to win. 1. Protect Chase Daniel If Texas is able to get pressure on Daniel with just their front four, Missouri will lose. Force them to commit more players. Get your left tackle some help with Brian Orakpo. Chip him with a back, double him with a
