Reposted from 1st half thread

Look, with USC’s loss, BYU’s demolition, and Florida’s underachieving, you’re playing with house money. People are already branding this "one of those weeks where all the top teams struggle."

Just win and nothing else matters. No one remembers September style points anyway.

That's the bigger issue

It’s not the score. It’s the fact that Colt doesn’t look like he did last year and at some point it’s no longer an aberration.

We need a long, draining drive. Tech has been dominating time of possession

And we will need to be rested in the 4th quarter to keep Potts on his heels. Other than Colt’s struggles, I think the story for Texas is the missed opportunities on turnovers. Let’s recover a fumble or catch a deflected pass. Great pass rush, but can Houston, Acho, and Kindle keep that up with all these snaps in the 4th?

On the bright side, holding Tech to 3 points is a major achievement.

Muschamp has them ready. If there were no hands of stone, we’d have three INTs.

One more point...

Maybe this is why we shouldn’t play massive conference games so early in the season. That’s something of a cop-out, because VY beat OSU in 2005 on the road, but these teams know each other very well, but haven’t quite found their offensive footing this year.

Muschamp should call the offensive plays.

Hate to find myself agreeing with TV throats

But I think Newton may be the answer to the running game. He does two critical things: always falls forward, as Musberger pointed out, and he has the inate sense of when to cut — to cut before the block has been made but as he sees it setting up. That turns Vondrell’s 3-yard gains into 6 or 7.
