Week 9 Prediction Thread...Get Your Wife Beaters On...Texas vs Baylor

Ok, time to get back to business. This week we travel to Waco to take on the Beaters...I mean Bears.

Let's hope the petro is flowing and the brake pedal doesn't work.

Toughest game of the year to call so far IMO.
Before I give my pick....just want to know what some of you guys who love to tear down the coach and team every year would have been saying as fans about Baylor at 2-7 last year if it were Texas. SMH
Tough one here but have no choice but to think we come out with a do or die mentality and rebound. Their run offense scares me to death because we have yet to show we know how to adjust to stop the run. Nevertheless...Overshown back, CT rebounds, we make their QB force it.

Bailor had the week off too and I believe Aranda is a better coach.

Time to flush the Bears down their toilet bowl to the muddy waters of the Brazos (where they'll float downriver by another institution deserving of losses and flushes).

Well that prediction certainly cuts against our recent performances.

We've show a tendency to blow out bad teams. Thus, I see no reason to put down the Kool-Air.

If this doesn't work out, I may have to break out the pumping-smoke gif next week.

Yes

I am going to have to wait for a couple of recruiting classes.

 

Thumpers?

Listening to Sark’s presser, it sounds like he brought in some special professionals to talk to the team.

I watched the BU-BYU game, the Bear's defense ought to do well against our Oline.

Maybe 1st quater against ou, but I just don't see it.
I want to see some fight to the end or a close out lead for a V.

I’m going to be optimistic and believe that Sark can right the ship, fix what is wrong, and tweak this team’s performance. Obviously they are close to being a good team judging by the dominance they demonstrated “for part of the last two games,” both offensively and defensively.

As I mentioned in another thread, to me this is a big test for Sark (who I really like) and his play calling. If he can be creative enough to keep the offense sharp and just moving the ball for four quarters, we will win this game…and the next four as well. (Hopefully the next 5, the 5th being in early December.)

If he can’t, that will be a huge disappointment, even given the inferior OL. My point is that creative play calling can— to some extent — overcome OL deficiencies.
