Look out world, here comes Taysom Hill and much of the same personnel on both the BYU offense and the Texas defense as last year.  Doesn't bode well for the Horns.

Surely you saw the adjustments that were made following the BYU game last year. Apples and oranges.

Hill had a freak game last year.  This game will be much closer.

only gurus notice adjustments.

 

Other posters are just too busy typing/running their mouths

If I had to take a guess. I will take the Horns by 13. I don't think BYU will have another game like they did last year. Just don't see it.

[AggiesAreWe]

I think BYU will have to pass the ball some and be successful at it in order to come a way with a win. No way longhorns allow them to run the ball on them like last year. They will do everything they can to stop that rush attack.

Taysom Hill's numbers against UConn last week

28-36. 308 yards. 3tds
12 rushes 97 yards. 2tds

The kid can play

The Texas defense will not want a repeat of last year, so I expect their best effort here.  With Ash out, the Texas defense may have to win the game.  With the majority of the BYU offense back from last year, BYU is probably the better team right now.  The coaches may be different, but the players remain the same.  Certainly, Texas can win but my money is on BYU.  

[team first]

Go place your bets!

Already did

[whatnamecanipick]

I feel more confident with this coaching staff and Swoopes/Heard than I did with last years staff and Case McCoy. Notice the second coaching is missing.

 

"We have a football team, and we have to go play," Strong said. "You have players and that's why you have scholarships. It's not all about one person. Other players have got to step up, other players have got to play. It can happen to any team at any second."

 

Wrote Espinosa: "Tough times don't last, tough people do..even though I won't be on the field going to battle, you can count on me leading this team in the right direction from the sideline. I have faith in the direction this ship is headed, and we aren't turning back now. The mouthpiece has been traded in for the whistle. Now let's get to work."

How can we remain to be a top program with that many tickets left?

Not going to happen overnigt. As they say, the proof is in the puddin'.

If they win and Swoopes plays well, people will get excited again. Now, not so much.

[Eazy]

It will take a couple of years for Strong to change the culture and get the talent back to compete against the best teams.  At this point, people will get excited just to defeat an unranked team at home.

[adminbaberuth]

Two UT players suspended. 

[TxHoops]

Two UT players suspended.

Actually dismissed from the team. On an already razor thin OL. UT was still -1 when I looked earlier today. Good luck finding it on the board anywhere now.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

@schadjoe: Texas OT Desmond Harrison and OT Kennedy Estelle have been suspended for BYU game for violation of team rules.

Man, I hope it is only one game. I heard they were kicked off.

that performance is the reason I think this game will be extremely close.
