Another week and another difficult game to predict. Can we overcome the inconsistencies, run the ball when it counts, and play a full four quarters? I don't know. I really don't.

Texas 30
TCU 23

Juth mithed it.

I just cant pick against the horns even though this one could go that way.

I was poised to go with a longhorn loss but dang it I just don't feel like it.

Iowa State lineman talking trash about UT. What a dumb ***. Now they just woke the giant.

Wish that wasnt necessary but if it helps, by all means!!

If we needed him to wake us up, we're in trouble.

On Monday I was going to pick ISU to win this game. I still think they might but like Poms, I just think it goes against my upbringing to pick against the Horns. So:

Texas 27
ISU 23

 

[Pomspoms]

Well one thing that we know; they want us bad. They want to knock us out of the playoff picture and to send us to the SEC with another loss. We better match their intensity and be wearing our big boy pants. This is nothing new to us. Let's get it on.

31-10 Texas

It'd be really refreshing if we would just totally dominate another team from beginning to end.

i see the kool-aid has finally depleted and people have come back to reality.

Sark mentioned several times in his presser he wants to see tighter coverage on defense. We can't keep calling soft zone coverage on pass defense. No Brooks ... need to stop lining up in 12 personnel and spread it back out with 3 wide + JT. Have to use the run game but can't lean on it.

Yes, that was the last game that Texas didn’t have a chance to win.

can we get him to wait until halftime to talk trash? SOMETHING is needed for 2H motivation, because the coaches clearly arent doing it...

 

[mb227]

31-10 Texas

but what about the second half?

 

[EMJ426]

Hmmm, not much to say. We out match them in every category. Losing Brooks will show during the 1st quarter, but I think we get refocused and dominate.
TX ~ 32
ISU~ 17 (because I don’t know which defense shows up)

 

[Detective Shilala]

Just because I keep predicting for us to lose and they keep proving me wrong:

Texas: 24
ISU: 30

I hope my zero % success rate holds true.

This would feel great. Much better than running into a brick wall in the 3rd or 4th quarter.
I really thought we had shook that problem last week when we were at halftime. Surely they wouldn't allow a repeat of KState and Houston right? Wrong.

 

[HalRex]

but what about the second half?

We don't score in the second half. They don't score in the first half

Great chart...I tried to find this but couldn't. It would be interesting to see what it looked like last week. I'm guessing that it was similar. And look where we ended up. And as much as I think ISU has a good chance to win because it's night in cold Iowa, I won't pick against Texas, even if it means I'm way wrong.
