thats the problem with a guy that has a gun like MM, he thinks he can fit the ball into a target the size of a small pizza

I have to say, I've been harping on Sanders all year, however, yesterday he aggressively initiated two contact blocks. Maybe someone got into his wheelhouse last week but I found this to be very encouraging.

and, yet, he threw a couple of the ugliest passes I've seen at Texas in a LONG time
I don't think we control our own destiny, but if we win the remaining B12 games and the championship we would be sitting at 12-1. That would likely get us into the CFP, but even if it doesn't I don't think anyone would be disappointed.
With what I saw yesterday, each of our remaining games are a toss-up with MM. Our opponents have film on him now and will know how to confuse him. Our only hope is that the running game and the D can carry us until QE gets back. That's doable, but TCU, ISU, and tech will bring their best games of the season against us.
It seems to me that except for the turn over that Maalik plaed well in the first part of the game, then at some point he seemed to lose his ability to accurately put the ball where it was needed. I'm not sure if he was rattled, or if he had some kind of injury, hopefully whatever it was gets resolved before his next appearance.

I’m liking what I see out of the downhill run game. The sideways ru game, not so much. Both Brooks and Baxter can roll when they get their shoulders squared up with the LOS. I think folks are suprised with the run game production but I felt like Brooks would be solid. He has proven he belongs and then some. I think him playing in honor of his dad gives him something personal to play for.

I'm smoking a deer shoulder. Should be ready by the time the Cowboys game starts.

I should've clarified, I meant control their own destiny as it relates to the B12 Championship. The CFP is set in my mind, unless something crazy happens. UGA or Bama are in (SEC Champs), Michigan or tOSU are in, Florida St. Is in, and one of Oregon or Washington are in. I know Texas beat Bama, but if Bama beats UGA in the SEC champ then that will trump a week 2 loss. Texas will remain 6 or 7 and play in the Sugar bowl
Could be, but this is college football and things rarely play out as expected.
Hopefully Texas will continue to find a way to win.

All we can do is keep winning, but we are definitely hoping for weird stuff to happen in order to secure our spot in the CFP. For a minute I thought usc was going to do us a solid and beat Washington
Ohio state will play Michigan.

If Oregon beats Washington, it could help, but I assume the winner of the osu/mich game will be undefeated.
Well I honestly don’t know it’s Oregon will play Washington again
It will be interesting if Michigan beats Ohio State and then Michigan gets a post season ban for cheating. Pray for chaos.

With the talent Texas has even with MM, there isno way Horns should not be a 3 TD favorite in remaining games!
