Forgive my ignorance, but, did Catalon play against Rice?

Is it just me or is the “nation” tag getting a bit old? Seems to be the tag everyone is using now. Maybe when we beat Bama, we can be the Longhorn Kingdom.

He did.

Zero stats. That doesn't mean he didn't influence a play.

Did he mention that Texas also beats Alabama in the 2010 National Championship if Colt McCoy was healthy for the entire game?

Not much. I'm sure he was saved for this game.

Hard to remember a single event or game that has so dramatically altered the direction of two programs than that one.

Had to save his shoulders.  He's bringing the heat this weekend.

and to be honest Texas has been a mediocre program since then

Bama took out Colt and Ewers so its obvious to me that they will try the same thing on Saturday.

See tcu last year. They benefited greatly from playing backup qbs due to injury or from knocking them out of the game.

Exhibit A - Late hit on Gabriel

Just got reading the feature that Alex Dunlap over on Orangebloods does every week after a game where he grades the offensive line. 

Banks and Jones played their usual good games. But the interior OL was really, really bad. 

Hayden Connor played his worst game of his career. And Jake Majors graded out worse than him. And D J Campbell was barely ahead of both of them. This is Rice we're talking about here.

I’m wondering if the Rice coaches found a weakness to exploit. 
And if so, you can bet Bama coaches will use it

No they won't. Rice knew they were outmatched and played an amoeba defense. A little shifting before the snap and several players standing up. We should be able to pick that up, but we didn't. 

Alabama knows they have superior talent and can beat you straight up. I would imagine they will stunt and try some things here and there, but for the most part they will line up and do what they do.

My 2 cents anyway..
