The Common Man Prediction Thread – Cougar High

This game will be a good indicator of how much Texas has solved their approach to the QB run game. I think Dillon Gabriel took them a bit by surprise in Dallas but it'll be no surprise that UH QB will rely on the QB run game and scrambles.

With 2 weeks to prep I sure hope the Defense has a good plan to contain such a QB and that this is something we can carry forward in a possible rematch against OU.
 
Two things about tomorrows game. First, Texas comes out pissed. They've had two weeks to stew. Second, UH is still hungover from last week's thriller win.
Texas 57 - UH 17

If they were taken by suprise, where were the scouting reports? Dillon ran all of last yeat ( when healthy) and same this year Should be a game that's won by half time. But it has been a very long time since Texas dominatedgames like talent says they should. Back to the DKR and Akers days

It kind of felt like they dominated 0u last year, right? ;)
 
Wishing and hoping for a UT blowout 56-10 ? To allow Murphy and orher subs to get some meaningful playing time. But the more likely scenario is that Sark and coach K allow the coogies to hang around , finally pulling away late. Tx 35-17.

It was the most rushes by Gabriel ever, and a lot were designed runs, not scrambles. Everyone knows he can run but OU hadn't shown it to be that much of the gameplan so far this year.

Dillon was an average runner last year. There is nothing special about his running ability. He just goes where people ain't.

ou had not run Gabriel as they did against Texas. Your assumption that somehow Texas doesn't do scouting reports is a little bizarre. You know better.

Yes I do. But was responding to a post that said Dillon running suprised Texas a little. In the games I saw of ou last year Dillon rolled out and ran quite a bit. To me saying Dillon does not run much is like Caleb does not run.

Imagine coaches not showing all thier plays saving them for big game. Belive several said Sark was doing this for ou. ou won no matter how same as Texas did today.

Gabriel spent several games in street clothes last year, including the RRR. Dillon Gabriel was really nothing to fear going into the game. He played his best game ever that day. Good for him.
