There's some promise on the depth chart this week. Williams and Goodwin have bubbled to the top.

The OU game is a catalyst for change in our program, and I hope we'll see some better things from here on out.

I'll add one more comment

Has Kirk been benched for his play, or his head-butt? Both?

Notice Tray Allen . . .

now a co-starter with Michael Huey at right guard. Meaning that David Snow has been demoted (he’s still No. 2 at center). Since Huey has been sharing time with Snow, I presume that means Tray gets some first-unit snaps.

No letdown this week!!!

no letdown is key

Texas has an incredible record in post-OU games under Mack Brown, as I recall. Obviously I hope that trend continues. I do hope the kids are disappointed enough in some aspects of their win last Saturday that they decide to make a statement this coming Saturday.

It's about time

Malcolm Williams, Buckner, Shipley, and Goodwin…WOW. Fozzie in the backfield.

Middle O-line as well. Watch this catch fire and roll…I am jazzed.

Stay with it long enough to gel and we are in.

Offensive Shakeup

Good to see the ones with the most big play ability floating to the top. I hope we tighten up the rotation also so these players can get into a rhythm. If we can get the oline to do their job, we can really shake up the play calling also and get away from this 3 yard passing game.

I honestly think that a better job by the OL would make the biggest difference that anything possibly could. We could have Vince taking the snaps right now, and the only reason there would be any more offensive success would be that he could break through the constantly-collapsing pocket a little better.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

This maybe exactly what we need. Think about a four wide set now. Shipley in the slot Malcolm out wide with Goodwin on the other side and Buckner at the flex. Maybe even Fozzy in the back field. This could be very explosive.

You can't spell COCKSUCKER without OU.

O-Line shake up, WR Promotion

Hang in there David Snow, we need ya long term big guy.

Marquis Goodwin played for his promotion, great job!
