Texas struggling with utsa, bama and fsu, Kentucky and Texas an and m, Oklahoma and New Mexico.

We go on the road and win by 2 tds against a good wake team on a Friday night. I hear people say this unit or that unit isn’t playoff caliber. Yeah we have flaws we need to fix and clean up. We dominated wake in the 1st half and should have had our backups in by the 4th. There is a lot of parity in cfb but we’re a top 5 team right now capable of beating everyone.

Figure out the oline, get a couple players back mid season or by ND, don’t lose to an inferior team and peak at the end. Run this offense the whole game and we can score 40 plus on anyone.

I agree and that’s why I’m on board with McCoy moving to RG, Cantwell RT, Congdon/Buchanan/other at LG this week. Let SJ get some snaps at C to see what’s there.
Or go with McCoy at LG to solidify that side and let the young guys take the right side and grow each week so we can be ready for nd nov 7.
On D do the same with young LBs and Corners. The greatest growth and ceiling come November and beyond is a youth movement in those spots imo.

I’m confident Mario & Co will figure it out. They have to see what we see, especially on the OL.

GO CANES! Don’t take it easy on my alma mater this week!

All of this is true but our Inside OL is cheeks and wont be able to hold up against the top 5 teams.

Their defense is terrible. A lot of their big plays are off broken plays. You can’t go a whole season out scoring teams. Just a matter of time for them

It is a dumb double standard of CIS.
People love to complain about our defense not being consistent but then praise teams like Louisville that play no defense at all.

It is extremely mindless.

They've played two very good offenses. Hung all the way through with the team that just beat LSU more handily, and took care of an SMU team that beat us last year.
