with our schedule, the QB turnover the teams we face will have, we need 9-3 minimum. not saying we won't have a good class at 8-4 but that would not be a very good season baring some injuries.
If we win the 3 OOC games ( which I think we will ) I see at worst only 3 loses in Big 12 play.
Still will believe it when I see it. I want to see him at least step foot in Austin before I believe any inkling of something brewing there.
That was bizarre, wasn't it?
I love recruiting, but I'm ready to see the winning product on the field. Do that and everybody will want to come to Texas.
Better than last year? That's why I said "trending". But what I am hearing behind the scenes is Texas will be the team to beat for the conference title. And this with OU being the media darling for that position. Of course, everything always hinges on the injury front, but this is true of all teams.
Who do you think will be the three losses and why? This is not a snark question - I am truly curious.
@ K-State always worrys me and it's been forever since we've won in Bill's backyard. Until we beat TCU I won't feel good about that, but this could be the year IMO. They are replacing a ton and play Ohio State the week before so they could be beat up. Always the possibility of one those WTF type of losses like Tech last year.
Intelligent response. Yeah, the WTF loss is always a possibility. Personally, I think WVU will be the scariest game in conference.
I understand you recruit until the end, but is Richardson worth the hassle with Cine and Watson looking like the top priorities? I honestly don' know much about DR.
Watson is being recruited as a CB but we also look good for Jalen Catalon.
Luckily we get WVU at home. That travel to/from the East Coast can take a toll. The Okie State game is one I'm interested in. Under previous coaches, this would probably be a loss, quite possibly a blowout loss. A bad loss to Okie State could start a tumble. This is where a good coach makes a difference.
Doc I am worried about all of them. That’s what six years of shit football have done to me.
Hate to be a pessimist but I have to agree. Until I see that we can win consistently I’m holding off on putting any wins in the bag for next year. I know we have said this all before but this year will really be key in recruiting. We have to back up all the talk with production on the field in order to be successful in recruiting this year.
This would be a TERRIBLE loss. Okie lite will be WAY down this year. Most likely starting true freshman Spencer Sanders. Even at Boone pickins this better be a double digit victory. Hell the whole conference is down. This is texas shot. To gain momentum. Record was crap last year but we were soooo close many times. Herm was teaching how to win. It’ll only get better
