*****GAME THREAD - TEXAS vs. WEST VIRGINIA*****

[RunRickyRun]

Our defense is soft.

That is fookin embarrassing. Start playing freshmen, maybe they will have some passion and give a damn.

Tables have freakin turned this year. UT defense is embarrassing. Offense playing well but has ZERO help. Teams can do whatever the hell they want

Our defense is soft.

That’s the understatement of the year

I think even we could score on the Defense

So I have watched 10 minutes this game since getting home.  HALF-ASS TACKLING.  Atrocious tackling.  Color analyst praising Locke for a hard hit, one where he didn’t use his arms at all and the guy gained 5+ YAC.  Tackling sucks.  Did I mention the tackling is poor?

 

[RDHookEm]

Run fits are horrendous

 

[MikeV73]

It’s what Herman talked about. The defense needs to stop going for the knockout shot and just wrap up and make the tackle 

Exactly, try wrapping up and stopping the play.

What happened over the bye week?? The D looks like a completely different group of guys.

 

[Hookemfan91]

PJ doesn’t wrap up

No one wraps up. 

 

[HORNfromETX]

WV has 305 yards so far. On pace to go over 600, Texas can't stop them at all.

What on earth happened to Sterns? He looked like an All-American the first several games this year. He's looked mediocre at best the past 2-3 games.

 

[texbound]

Holy crap this defense is soft and undisciplined right now.  Not to mention they're getting taken out one by one.  Literally adding injury to insult.

 

[HORNfromETX]

I hate the speed option!!!

 

[MikeV73]

Option, no.

That’s pretty typical of a frosh. They have ups and downs throughout their first season of college ball. 

 

[MikeV73]

WTH was that play?  Broken?  Designed?  Stick with what is working.

 

[okiehorn]

Sam playing like a veteran. He is a bad man

 

[drgilbert]

TD BABY!!

 

[MikeV73]

More plays like that please.
