Regarding the OL, we expect true freshman Connor Stroh to get the start at RG for the Orange team because of the injuries on the line.  He will go up against T’Vondre Sweat.

Wheeeeeh what a way to introduce a freshman to the college game. Sweat is a problem for anyone.

TEXAS!

I guess the team rosters won't be known until the game starts?

 

[UT1983]

Fight! 

 

[TexCoyote]

Is someone running ahead of Hayden Connor at Guard? I noticed on the roster he is on the different team from Banks, Jones, Majors. Who’s the starting 5 if we were playing a real game today?

Even though  Arch missed 2 out of 3,I like his awareness for 1st college game.

 

[Steelhammer]

Wow Murphy !?

 

[TexCoyote]

That Sydir Mitchell is one big dude. Hard to move him. 

 

[Steelhammer]

Blue says look at me!

 

[Steelhammer]

No more Blue on that pass.

Worthy, Whittington, Mitchell and Sanders is going to be a potent bunch this season.  A combination of Speed (Worthy), size and ball skills (Mitchell), toughness and Hands (Whittington) and a mismatch nightmare (Sanders).  This group will be special if they can stay healthy.

I haven't even included the upside of Cook and Moore and come back of Neyor.

Malik looking GOOD!

 

[RunRickyRun]

Quinn Ewers=Colt McCoy

Maalik Murphy=Vince Young

Arch Manning=Chris Simms

 

[Eastexhorn]

In that case go with Maalik. Biggest winner!

Malik looked real good

 

[NEOkHorn]

Quinn Ewers=Colt McCoy

Maalik Murphy=Vince Young

Arch Manning=Chris Simms

So, Quinn will lead us to the edge but come up short, Malik will attain Longhorn immortality and Arch will not live up to the hype and end up as an analyst in 5-10 years? Could be worse results. ?
