Oklahoma maybe Let’s tap the brakes a bit. I know sark said AGNB, but there’s still a lot of work to be done with two unproven QBs. It does look somewhat promising though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETXfan16 Posted September 6, 2021 Author Share Posted September 6, 2021 I see this game being close at the start with the atmosphere being a factor, but I really wasn’t impressed watching Arkansas against Rice. Not saying I’m 100% confident, but I just don’t believe Arkie is quite there yet under Sam Pittman. Certainly on their way but Saturday looked like the same hogs we’ve seen the last 3-4 years… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETXfan16 Posted September 6, 2021 Author Share Posted September 6, 2021 Also, I listened to Pittmans presser, and he is under the impression that Bijan is also the punt returner and kick returner. if he thinks Bijan and Jameson are the same players, he’s going to be in for a rude awakening we he realizes those are two different people and both equally dangerous. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got to brag for a few years after the thumping they took in 2008 (52-10), but man that last game was rough. I knew it would be before we ever played it though.

Mr. P Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I think Texas jumps out to a quick lead. Arkie battles back to make a game of it, but UT stays ahead to win by 17. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkie battles back to make a game of it, but UT stays ahead to win by 17. If Texas does jump out to an early lead and Arkansas has to throw, it could turn into a lopsided win. I think Texas will have a very similar game plan as they did last week. Control the clock and lean on the Run game while taking a few shots downfield. if Arkansas stays in the 3 high safety look I believe Bijan will explode on them. im guessing a similar score as last week. Maybe 35-17 to 42-20 type game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETXfan16 Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 What makes me optimistic about this Texas squad, specifically offense, is that its not the one dimensional, one man team it has been in recent years. Watching Sark utilize Bijan, Whittington, Roschon, Brewer, etc. is what is going to make Texas hard to beat. O-line needs work yes, but putting the ball in your playmakers hands can mask some of those hiccups which Herman failed to do. Card isn't spectacular (yet), but he's pretty dang good for a Freshman qb and he will only get better the more comfortable he gets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAFan11 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Texas picked up a huge recruiting win today when 4* DL Justice Finkley, from Birmingham Alabama, chose the Horns over Alabama and Colorado.
