Read Coleman's breakdown on the O line.  While I concur that our RBs should be better at attacking the hole, the holes aren't really there. 

I agree but some how they are going to have to find a to run the ball. 

 

[joeywa]

Swoopes trying too hard there.  Just take the sack. 

 

[Chitownhorn]

That's just an F'ing joke.

 

[Juan]

Ugh

 

[alonghorn72]

Wow...

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Swoopes is terrible. Bottom line. Kid is a habitual mistake maker. Wow! I think he's responsible for more TDs to opposing teams than to his own. Wow. The kids actually getting worse, if that's possible. The decision making ability of a pop warner kid.

 

[Juan]

This team can be pretty hard to watch, especially the offense

 

[Shevis Irons]

Technically the play should have been blown dead just as the Tech player lost his helmit, which happened before Swoopes tried the pass.

That said, it rarely gets called correctly.

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

And somebody get Marcus johnson off the field! The kid couldn't catch a cold!

How in the hell are we in such bad shape on offense? Anyone that says swoops is improving is only deceiving themselves. He just makes too many bad decisions and I don't even find him that athleticly gifted anymore.

 

[HornEsch]

Really sums up Texas this year.

 

[Juan]

Texas has allowed 5 defensive or special teams TDs in past 5 games.

Was wondering why the officials didn't blow the play dead at the point the helmet came off of the defender.

 

[joeywa]

LBs have to stay home and stop the quick slant.  Otherwise KK will run that play all night long.

 

[Juan]

On offense, we have 13 plays for 34 total yards,

one lost fumble and

one defensive score allowed.

 2.6 yards per play against a Tech defense that allowed 9.1 yards a play last week to TCU.

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Losing to a 2-5 Tech would be a new low....

 

[Chitownhorn]

That's a horrid call

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Never ever liked Swoopes... F you Mack Brown for this qb mess. This kid is a dumpster fire turned wild fire.
