Predict the Schedule – 2023

[BWilk55]

To be honest I’m tired of preseason talk and it’s getting boring. I want to get to ball 

1 week to fall camp! It's still preseason talk but at least there is some real football practice going on

The burnt orange kool-aid is going HARD this offseason ?

I'll remain at 8-4 until I see us win games we're supposed to win. 

I will keep this very simple, BS. 
 

Hook ‘em!

based on the off season hype we go 11-1

based on the fact that we haven't changed defensive schemes and have yet to prove we can shut down teams and dominate we go 9-3 (at which point I will be very disgruntled)

Based on our past few years of being one of the biggest underachievers in all of CFB we go 8-4 (which makes me throw up in my mouth just writing that)

based on me being a Horn homer we go 10-2 and we will be griping about being left out of the CFB playoffs, even though we all know if we run the table there in no way the selection committee keeps us out of any play off...my biggest fear is we go 10-2 and the two losses are NOT at Tuscaloosa or Dallas

no excuses no alibis, take no prisoners

IMO, 10-2 is your floor with this team. That means a likely loss to Bama and then one to some team we shouldn't lose to.

12-0 would be the ceiling but I would be surprised if we did that.

do you agree that we will likely be favored in every game except Bama, and that may end up a pick em or a 1-1.5 spread, but I cant see us being an underdog to anyone even on the road and IF we sneak out of Tuscaloosa with a win we WILL be favored in every game till we lose

11-1 regular season win the big 12 with a chance to make the playoffs.

TCU at their place will be our toughest game after Bama, IMO. But if we beat Bama before then, we will definitely be the favorite.

That and @ Iowa St. Texas needs to curb stomp Tech to end the "Big 12 goes through Lubbock" bs.

Smashing the Raiders and taking home the Big 12 crown on the way out would be the ideal way to finish this season, IMO. Damn, I hope the boys can make it happen.

Texas needs to defend DKR better , in the distant past they rarely lost at home and the last couple of years home field advantage has been a joke

Big 12 refs make that tough
