ANTI Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Anything from a 14-17 loss to, of course, a win....I'll take it. Just want to see a competitive game and good news is, so do the recruits that'll be in attendance. I do think that Ja'Tavion Sanders and Bijan Robinson will see heavy success in this one.

I never put money on my favorite teams in any sport. I can see a scenario where this game is in doubt in the 4th quarter. I don’t believe Texas can play this like the LSU game a few years ago. Texas can’t match scoring with Bama, this game is all about how much the defense has improved since last year. Bama has their least experience group along the oline, Gibbs is a good back but he’s not Najee Harris, their best WR is the freshman slot, and obviously Bryce Young is incredible. If Texas is in this game late it’s because of the defense and after last season that’s scary. Haha One thing I noticed last week was that the defense seemed to pursue well. They also seemed to be fundamentally sound penetrating the gaps and with their tackling as well. A change from the last few years. The O-Line did well in respect to picking up stunts. That is a major upgrade after the last few years. Unfortunately I do expect Alabama's defense to stress the Texas offense in every facet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent state ran the ball all over A&M to start the season last year, A&M finished with the 3rd ranked defense in the country. Season openers are usually very vanilla play calling with backups playing the entire second half after a lead. I agree Texas gets more than 1.5, but I don’t think Utah st is any indication of what Texas will see vs Bama. Agreed, I'm sure Sark didn't put the full weight of the offensive scheme on a RS frosh. Everything is vanilla the first week with P5 teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustAFan11 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Great quarter for the Texas offense. Of course Bama hurts our quarterback. If Ewers can’t come back Texas is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was the awkward angle because of the way he threw the ball away and jumped. It wasn’t dirty imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree that it was a good hit, in todays game, they call that every time. I don’t really understand the call there though. Literally both players were airborne. How is he supposed to not fall on top of him? He would have to defy physics in that situation to have not landed on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Card and Ewers were highly rated coming out of high school, but Ewers can make all the throws and everyone has always known that, huge arm.
