Overall, as you can see from the predicted scores, offense is not our problem and our defense will make strides this season.

Alabama will remind us of where we are, even though we're a much improved team from 2021.

Our QB is better. The OL is much better and has depth. We have a Sanders sighting at TE. Speed rules in the passing game. We have three very good backs to run the rock. And a very good play caller.

Our secondary should be much improved with the new talent injection. DL has reinforcements, an infusion of talent and returners have experience.

The big question is always how big of a jump can there be from 5-7, realistically? I'm saying its a big jump. What happens when the pieces start to be there for this system? 2022 will show us.

I'll  wait till August in '22 to make any understanding of what might happen in '22.  Unless one of you as had an out of body experience and knows  more than the rest of us.

 
I predict the Horns will go 7-3 with an Alamo Bowl victory against Colorado.  However, Tom Herman will be fired and the Horns will hire some guy named Steve Sarkisian.  Now we wait to see how I did.
Congratulations, I think you nailed it. Well done.

 
Yes, its a way too early look at 2022.

But what else are you doing?

 
I like your prediction, but we are a year away from that record. Too many holes to make such a dramatic change, but what the hell do I know after seeing what Baylor did this year. 

 
I think we're 7-5 or 8-4.  Too many unknown owns.  Can the freshmen linemen step in?  New QB1.  Etc.  Just too many growing pains again.
