Common Man Prediction Thread – UT vs Bill Snyder Family Wildcats

[Soldierhorn]

Texas 35

KSU 23

 

Wouldnt surprise me if Devon Campbell gets more snaps than Cole Hutson at RG and possibly becomes the starter the rest of the season.  Hutson has been the lowest graded OL this season so far and Campbell looked a LOT better during the oSu game

[longhorndon]

I have a slightly different take on this game. Yes, K-State is experienced, but how many times have we seen a team with a huge win, bounce in the polls and then come out flat as a pancake next game. I think UT being unranked helps, also. I definitely think we win the first half! Hopefully we can hold on during the 2nd.

Kstate just crushed oki lite. Our past history of collapsing on the road and a coach who can't or won't make 2nd half adjustments leads me to go ahead and pick the k staters. 38-31.  

Sad but very good possibility.

Think about it gents. No one hears more about the on-the-road deficiencies more than Sark and this staff and team. And you're hearing more about it this week than any other (because of the OSU result).

I think they will be looking to change that tune and will have a chip on their shoulder.

Factor in the running QB. We saw one with UTSA. He hurt us. This QB is a much better runner. We will have trouble with this.

The UTSA QB was a better passer, KSU is 10 in Big 12 in passing. Loving my pick, get on board.

Perfect scenario. We load the box to stop Deuce and Martinez. Get burned on several occasions by their wr's and TE's getting behind our elite secondary.

Guys we had a SECOND players meeting this time to focus on the details.  
bc of this meeting I am revising my prediction.

Campbell is ready to takeover.  Let’s make the change now.

A few thoughts heading into this game,

Some pundits (including the betting line) seem to favor Texas. I would like to believe this but just can't after the last several road games.

I saw Sark's press conference and don't agree with his thoughts on setting a goal down the road. Don't you have to make sure you pay attention to this week's opponent to get to the CCG? He also seemed to imply the players didn't execute as they should have in the second half. From what the stats tell me it is the coaching that lacks in the second half.

With the buzz that is surrounding improving freshmen, I would love to see Bledsoe, Campbell, Thompson and Brooks get more snaps.

Weak sauce. Weak, weak sauce. This is why women bear the children. Men couldn’t handle it. There would never be more than one!

For symmetry:  Texas 49 BSFFW 10

Hook ‘em, Damn It!

would have liked to been a fly on the wall and see who conducted the meeting(s) and who stepped forward to make it personal

Just as long as they did not have a pop quiz.

Sooner or later Texas is going to break this 2nd half collapse. Why not this week? My fear is the defense. Can we hold them? I think the first to 45 wins this game.

We have a stable of RBs. 

[TB14]

KSU - 30

Texas - 21

We don't win on the road. Especially against disciplined, well coached teams.

Oh, for Pete’s sake!

Hook ‘em!

You bet, Horn!  Write it down. They will all be saying they knew we were going to win after the game.

A-hem!  We know.

[java]

This is a great question:  why do reporters as such dumb questions?

Really.  Why?

Until I see things different I expect k-state to win convincing

My gut has confidence in Texas but I’m not listening to it until I see different
