I think we held back a lot. We ran the ball and played good D. Sam ran well but the passing game was conservative and maybe a little rusty.
They said that Sam didn't practice much during these two weeks. They're trying to get his ribs healed.
With that last TD, Sam is now 3rd All-Time for Texas Career Total TDs Colt McCoy 132 Vince Young 81 Sam Ehlinger 74 Ricky Williams 73 Chris Simms 68 Cedric Benson 64
No CJ. Eagles didn’t step up when defense focused on Duvernay. Ingram didn’t run well. Sam was off on at least 2 balls that were sure 1st downs.
Watson was schooled on two throws thrown over him. Better it happens in this game instead of the next.
After one big outing against OKST, Ingram returns to meh. Why RoJo is not #1 on the RB depth chart I cannot figure out. Avg YPC: Ingram 1.6, Johnson 5.8. Change my mind.
Can’t say that I’m super optimistic about next week although Herman will have them ready and we play to the level of the competition. Our running game is a big disappointment. No defense will scheme for us, which puts more pressure on Sam. But I do like our OL. On D, we have to find a way to pressure Hurts. If we don’t it could be a long afternoon. Let’s hope that the team was looking ahead today...
Either we are playing possum or OU is going to beat us like a drum. Our defense is not ready for the RBs they will see vs OU and they really aren't ready for Hurts. Our injuries are not the biggest problem.......Our tackling is BAD. Why we duck our heads all the time is baffling... You are supposed to teach "SEE WHAT YOU ARE HITTING" !!!! All our players see is the ground. Our offense will need to score at least 45 to win, and they will have to do it without 4 freaking turnovers, because Hurts will not throw it away to us. My hope is that OU is not as good as their stats.
I believe RoJo should get the nod to start. The D coming up with 4 picks was excellent! The busted play the O turned into a TD was a relief. The lateral back to the center for a TD was a great surprise. It’s a good road win.
To clarify, Cosmi is a tackle. That play is referred to as "tackle eligible". You have to inform the refs before the play that your tackle is an eligible receiver. You cannot throw to the center.
Horns win even with Ehlinger having his worst outing of the year. Game the Horns could have lost but they did what it took to get out of Morgantown with a win.
