38-21 Horns. Several early turnovers keeps the game too close. Horns pull away in the 4th q wearing down the undermanned Rams. C+ performance with no major injuries.

Quinn leads the offense for almost 3 full quarters. Arch gets 20 minutes of playing time, and Sark isn't interested in having him only hand off.

The current consensus spread is ~ 33.5. We should annihilate them but in recent years, we have not come out with guns ablazing, and I am concerned that the team could be looking ahead to Michigan.

Regardless:

TX - 45
CS - 12

Austin's forecasted weather for Saturday is pretty much what Fort Collins has experienced the past couple of weeks so that probably won't be a factor for their guys. What may be a factor is that they have 9 starters and ST guys from Texas. But I'm ready for an old 1970s style beatdown because of the talent imbalance.
