Predict Texas Longhorns vs Louisiana Tech Bulldogs

[Chop]

Oh, and while it won't go for a score, there WILL be at least two plays where someone in the secondary tries to make a pick and not only misses, but allows the receiver to go for 30+ yards.

I'm afraid you're correct. Kris Boyd set the example for the youngsters. Although it may even go for a score.

Upon further review I may have made an error in predicting the Horns would hold the Dawgs to 13.
After watching Herman's presser and hearing the coach's name is Holtz I finally did research. So Skip is Lou's son but he has been a pretty decent coach beating Miami, Clemson and His alma mater Notre Dame while at USF before getting fired. He was also a pretty good offensive coordinator. 13 points may be wishful thinking on my part.
Interestingly Holtz was fired from USF where Strong is now coach . The Coach at LaT before Holtz was Sonny Dykes, also a coach's son.

More bulletin board material to keep us from thinking about LSU. I dont know why they keep doing this.

From another thread

Louisiana Tech is 1-10 in their last 11 games against P5 opponents
But they are 7-4 ATS, with one outright win (back in 2014).
They have lost 16 in a row to ranked opponents by an average of 27 PPG.
And Skip Holtz is 1-12 vs. P5 teams, with the losses coming by an average of 21 PPG

Lol, a gentle fingertip push at the line of scrimmage is all it will take for ou WR's to get separation on those little guys.

Old guys remember when Fred Akers ran Lou Holtz out of the SWC.

Both are good men, though.

 

[Horn6721]

I remember Holtz speaking to the team , not sure what year. It was a pretty good speech.
Why did he leave Arkie?

Akers owned Arkansas when Holtz was there. The ND gig went well for Holtz, though.

 

[FWHORN]

Herman is 0-2 in Texas openers but thankfully we arent playing east coast powerhouse Maryland this year so lets say Texas 45 La Tech 27.

La Tech will be a great tune up game for the Horns. Getting it right for the LSU game.

Horns- 31
Terry's Boys- 14

It appears everyone is "probable" except for Daniel Young and Kirk Kohnson.

Chisholm too? I read Wilbon had to have his knee drained but can play.

I hope not. MD wins.

True.

Hopefully the team has learned it can't take its opening opponent lightly being that they will get their best shot from them.

 

[LonghornDave]

Hopefully the team will be awre of the lasttwo years and know the truth. UGH

Yes, I posted, perhaps even quoting you, that I am sure the team is not taking La Tech lightly after the last 2 season openers. Pretty sure the culture has changed.

 

[LonghornDave]

I was stunned last year.
