*****GAME THREAD: No.7 Texas Longhorns vs. BYU Cougars*****

[jimmmyb]

Murph is a work in progress. Good game for him to get to get some work in. Hope QE is ready next week, though.

 

[Billybass]

Or the best Texas team in 14 years

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

I think Teaffe has the best ball skills of anyone in the DB room.

I said something similar to this last week and a couple of posters about lost their s"*÷ He lacks athleticism, but has a high football IQ.

 

[Austin Horn]

I’m a little disappointed with this game. 8 games in we are struggling in the red zone.

 

[Soldierhorn]

interesting. The Longhorn live stats has the QB ratings as...

#10 Kedon Slovis 93.7

#6 Maalik Murphy 139.5

Most of my frustration is selfish: I wanted to be right with my prediction smh

 

[Eastexhorn]

Sure glad Sark had a week to tailor the offence to Maalik. Ski
l set. This is the worst BYU team I have seen

 

[jimmmyb]

BYU needed Taysom Hill today if they wanted to make a game of it. He beat the crap out of us running the ball.

 

[Soldierhorn]

The pass receiving leaders were:
Sanders, worthy and Brooks with 4 each; Mitchell with 3

you'd think all the times they targeted worthy, he would have more receptions

After those 1st half TOs, MM was solid. He made a couple of questionable throws, but he got better as the game went on. He will definitely need to be better against KST.

To be fair, he did have a TD in his hands and dropped it. Good play by the DB, but it went through his arms.

Looked like he jumped a little early and may not have needed to jump at all. Still, MM was late on several throws. Good win with lots of teachable things to work on this week.

I cant remember when was the last time I was as dissatisfied with a 30 point win.

BYU has had a terrible offense ALL season. They ranked in the 120 out of 130 pre game. The last three games in conference play, they averaged 271 total offensive yds per game.

Today 292.

Most of the stats have similar discrepancies.

 

[Sunkist]

Just keep winning

This would have made Bob and Dan’s Lunch Pale segment on the Ticket in Dallas. If you know… you know.

 

[Eastexhorn]

After a rough start I thought Maalik done ok.First start on abig stage. Wasmore disapointed inplay calling espically first quarter. Any how Horns won.

Big 12 took a hit as for as getting a team into playoffs. Winner of a undefeated ou a one loss Texas would have a good chance. Will see how raters look at itwhen teams are listed.

That was more about our defense than Taysom Hill.

Their primary RB returned for this game. He's been out with injury.

 

[82Horn]

Good win, I am very excited to be 7~1. Never going to have a perfect game,always things to cotinue to work on. I am happy with the win.

 

[TXFF]

wasnt Taffe a Westlake walkon a couple of yrs ago?

Yes, he had scholarship offers elsewhere, but wanted to play for Texas so he walked on. He was a do-everything stud at Westlake.
