Texas Vs. Louisiana Tech Game Thread

Jeez. Great time for a concussion.

 

[Horns11]

You can bet your *** that if he's mildly concussed, he's not going to let anyone know it.

 

[Driver 8]

Sam has got to minimize the contact
His team needs him healthy

 

[AustinHorn24]

I dont care if Ehlinger feels fine, if coach puts him back in I've got a serious problem with that.

Ehlinger doesn't need to play the rest of this game. We are going to beat La Tech by 40 regardless of who the QB is.

 

[Clean]

Sam is ok, i’ll Bet. Got something in his eye or something minor

 

[Joe Fan]

We have a bowling ball walk-on RB (I forget his name)
But he had over 1000 yards rushing his senior year
We might see him tonight

yeah I’m guessing those damn pellets from the turf

 

[Joe Fan]

Sam is back

Very disappointed in coach -- no need for Sam to play the rest of this game, even if he feels fine.

Watch him do 20 designed runs in the 2nd half when we are up by 40. Ridiculous.

 

[Joe Fan]

That's a catch

 

[Clean]

Yeah with no running game, Tech is teeing off on Sammy.

 

[Detective Shilala]

Every time Sam takes a hit to the head or has his head bounced off the turf I wince. Kid is tough as nails but does not need any more concussions.

I understand your point but you are overreacting. Having said that I do want to see Casey soon

 

[Dionysus]

I do want to see Casey soon

Same — I hope he gets some significant time in the 2nd half

 

[easy]

Why is he still on the field after this

 

[Badass]

So far so good. Let Roschon play more if need be. I’m good with that.

 

[KBBAKER]

We look good, but can we please hang half-a-hundred? I long for a true blow out game! Also, can we attempt a deep ball, or two? Just for fun!

 

[Pomspoms]

Are we happy so far?
Decent pace and play calling I say but I would like some more deep shots. How bout giving Burt a shot at a long throw or Jake!

 

[Dionysus]

 

[BevoJoe]

The replay looked like Sam's helmet cam lose, came forward and the edge hit him just above the bridge of his nose. That hurts and make your eyes water. Not ruling out a mild concussion though from the hit to he back of his head and neck.

 

[Badass]

Sam has greatly cut down his contact, he is on pace to cut back from 16 to 10 or so, that one play was a fluke

 

[Joe Fan]

Jordan Whittington limped off the field after the last possession.
He's been walking back and forth on the sidelines. No helmet, trying to jog it off.

Apparently holdover sportshernia injury from high school

 

[Badass]

Anybody doing a freshman tracker? Announcer is doing a good job letting us know when a new one enters the game. JWhit, Jake, TVondre, Roschon, who else has played?

 

[WorsterMan]

Think Sam is ok y'all.

 

[MajesticII]

We need to see Thompson early third qtr if nothing more to keep Sam healthy and give him some reps when we need him next week.
Boyce is looking bad.
We rush the QB out of control.
Our tackling technique is poor. need to break down properly and strike.
Where the hell are our WRs ? Sam has had enough time to throw most of the time. Why are we not getting open ? Why aren't we running crossing routes etc to get open ?
I guess that La Tech DB was right. Our WRs can't handle press coverage.???.... SMH
We should have gone hard after a portal RB.....
LOTS of good things I didn't mention........Just pointing out some stuff we better fix by next Saturday

Yes, except for the last series, the offense looks good
Much better start in Game 1 than we had the last two seasons

 

[Joe Fan]

We came out in dime, playing off their receivers
Boyce still out there, eventhough Cook is now eligible

 

[Statalyzer]

I like how I can hear the wolf howls on tv when Sterns makes a big play.

I agree we've had plenty of time to throw
Just because we had one or two missed tackles does it mean that we are doing a bad job of tackling overall.
