Despite all the frustrations this season, they deserve some props for not letting a loss beat them the following week.

True, but on the other hand, we have also failed in stringing together wins. We have 1, 3 game winning streak. Other than that we have alternated wins and losses all year. That is a bit of a troubling pattern. Play hard when your back is against the wall, followed by getting too complacent after a win.

This would be up there with Ricky coming back, so not even going to entertain the possibility and get my hopes up.

Are juniors allow to participate in Senior Day activities?

Kansas could beat K-State.  And Detroit could win the Super Bowl.

Good question.  I think not.

And Ricky didn't have the benefit of the NIL, but he could offer good counsel for Bijan. 

good council from Ricky??? Ricky could flat out run with a football, but there were more loose screws in his head than there are in a 58 Dodge.

They could. I think their QB will be better with a week under his belt after injury.

KU has some quality wins. They beat Okie State, Iowa State, and could pull this off. I would certainly give KSU the advantage (home game) but KU could do it.

Everyone would do well to remember that we all thought the Longhorns were back when we beat Georgia.  Neither side whether it’s fire PK or keep PK needs to gloat too much because we have seen this movie before only to find out it was fools gold.  Be optimistic but proceed with caution. 

Did someone say fools gold

Sometimes players participate if they know they're going pro early.

I don't have the slightest clue as to what Bijan is currently pulling in per year, but my guess is his first round signing bonus alone would be quite a bit more.

Not saying NIL would be more than signing bonus. Ricky stayed (presumably for the love of the school and a chance for the Heisman, which he got) without the benefit of NIL, but with only an insurance policy provided by the school. Bijan's insurance policy should dwarf Ricky's, and his chance of a career ending injury would be much higher playing against a pro team with bigger, faster, and meaner players. 

Don't think his choice is cut and dried. Just sayin'...

Peyton Manning came back when he seemingly had no benefit to do so. He may be a good source if Bijan is considering a return. I'm sure Peyton would like Bijan in the backfield with his nephew.

Ricky improved his draft stock coming back. Bijan is likely the #1 back in the draft,  so I'm not sure that Bijan can improve his draft stock.

Bijan can get insurance and be set up well for life. Money won't be the only factor.  If his heart tells him to stay, then there's a good chance he stays. 

If Bijan does stay will we be able to keep Krob Blue and Brooks out of the portal?

Not sure it matters. It seems that we use primarily 2 backs during the season. Occasionally a 3rd back. If we get a 5-star RB in recruiting this year, someone is still going to be left out. If playing time is factor for the odd RB(s) out, then barring injuries, we will lose at least one of them.

Unfortunately there is a much better chance of us losing to Baylor than Kansas beating Kansas St. Better come ready to handle our own business.

Texas linebacker commit Liona Lefau and the Kahuku (HI) Red Raiders will play for a ninth state title at Mililani (HI) High School on Friday at 7:00 p.m.

I live so close to the Mililani HS stadium that I can hear every game from my porch.  I guess I know what I will be doing friday night.  Gonna go all decked out in my Longhorn gear.
