I love the optimism of the above posts. My heart is with you. But to predict who I think will win, not who I want to win means: Horns 24 ou 27
This Texas squad has been in some dog fights and is getting tougher every week. Receivers are going to be open and I think Ehlinger's going to find them. Horns 38 blowU 34
I thought that after the moral victory at USC we would win this game. I still do. The offense and Sam might be on the verge of a breakout game...but the defense needs to return to pre-KSU form. TX - 41 OU Sucks - 24
With 86 of those coming on one of the eight carries he receives as a 'reward' from Herman...39 come on another carry. Herman then puts him back on the bench after the next six carries only net approximately four yards per touch.
44 - 24 Horns win. Ehlinger will lead in a Colt like performance, running and the short passing game. I am no longer convinced the running backs will be or have to be a major part of the game plan. On defense, hopefully they will zone blitz a lot and look for screens and hot routes on the back side.
Pompoms, No way. Riley has a legacy to live up to, and if it comes down to a last play from the 13 yd line in a tie game, he will go or the TD and the 2 pt PAT to cover.
Very few on here actually know the future. Only the most astute soothsaying, crystal ball gazing, and psychic hornfans on this board know the score before the game is played. So go ahead and do as Driver 8 suggested, make a guess, join in the fun, and don't worry if your guess happens to be a point or two off.
okay...fine... someone is going to score enough and the other team will score not enough What I DO know though...
Both defenses leave a lot to be desired (but at least Texas knows its issues and is improving). Very easy seeing ou scoring 35 on Texas. Since I have to convince myself that Texas can score 35 on ou I will say: ou 35-Texas 30 Close game until mid-4th quarter when ou pulls away.
36-32 Texas Regardless of the score, I'd like to see our D pound Mayfield on every play. I hope it doesn't come down to a long FG to win.
Can we put a badge patch on the jerseys of the D? After all, we know SnowFlake cannot outrun a badge...
A lot of factors to consider in making a prediction in this shootout. I assume Ehlinger will start and finish the game.... I'm ignoring the voices in my head and going with my heart: Horns 34 Snowflakes 31 Special teams and the kicking game will be huge in this game. I hope it doesn't come down to a Horns FG from any distance to win the game......
