Common Man Prediction Thread – UT vs Rock Chalk Jayhawk

[Sirhornsalot]

Looking like Card will be your starter. Thompson's thumb will not be well enough to play, IMO.

During the PC, TE Brewer noted that Thompson couldn't even throw up a Hook'em sign at the beginning of the game.

Personally, I'd like to see what Charles Wright can do. We've seen Card and what he can do.

Hard to be second best WR if he can not make it through season.

I am for Wright togetseveral plays and run full offense.

You are right in that it is hard to call J. Whitt. The 2nd best, but once he went down OU didn't seem as worried about the slot guy either. That whether the thumb is/was an issue team just don't respect other slot guys.  So, either  we see what Harrison, Dixon, Woodard, or see if K. Robinson fills in to make the speed, routes, and catching the passes help offset the stacking of the box. 

I've seen enough of Card to know it won't work. Maybe our best deep passer in Wright should get playing time. Or maybe just go full wishbone on Kansas.

Sucks no Bijan for the game. 

Texas still get a few things righted in this game 38

Lonely Kansas waiting on Basketball( oh wait it's here): 17

My wife and I will be going to the Kansas game since we're gluttons for punishment. We're legitimately worried about missing the beginning of the basketball game since we're going to the Kansas game.

I remember back in the day, some guy at Pantera's Pizza screaming "We MUST WIIIIIIN! Texas never loses to" ... Kansas

It's time for this team to man up.

Texas 31

Kansas 0

At the end of the game, one team will beDrSmithPain.jfif

that leads me to believe CT will need a medical procedure on the thumb at the end of the season if not sooner...he really hasnt done anything to lose the job so that make me lean towards a medical issue and they dont want to risk any further damage, which is the smart and prudent route to take..

I don't know if this is true but a poster on TFB who says he's close to some of the players said if anything, CT's thumb has gotten progressively worse, not better.

Thats alarming.

That would make sense. I appreciate the young man trying to gut it out for his teammates, but he hasn't looked the same since the OU game.

It is looking like both teams will be without their starting QB. I don't want to think of what that might look like. lol

Sark still saying both QBs will play. I still have my doubts about CT playing though.

This could be a good game for the defense to score some points, ditto for the special teams.

 

[longhorn_mig]

Also, apparently Keilan is in COVID protocol? Saw that on another board.

 

[Hiwood]

I will go with the oddsmakers this week

Texas and the Under so UT 45       Kansas 10

I hate to see that. But that kid from Newton will fill in just fine.

The UT def will make the KU QB look like a Heisman candidate. Seems to be a habit at UT.

If Texas doesn't play well this weekend, even without starters, there will be no bowl game for us.

Texas 45

Kansas 10

Sarkisian was supposed to name the starting QB today. Has anyone heard who or if Sark has named one?
