I didn’t see a prediction thread so here goes. You may not like what I am about to post, but I don’t like it either, so take it easy on me.
Overall team talent:
Texas >>> KSt
Plays as a team and knows its identity:
KSt >>> Texas
QB
KSt > Texas (we don’t know enough about Maalik, yet)
Coaching:
Klieman > Sark
K State 31
Texas 20
Two main issues I see:
1) Texas can stop the run, no question, but have trouble with running QBs optioning outside the tackles that can also pass. Will Texas spy them with Hill or somebody else?
2) Sark insists on making our QB win the game. Look how under utilized Bijan was. Now, he insists on giving Brooks’s carries to other less deserving backs. Can’t remember when but, he had even given our 170lb wr Worthy the ball on a short yardage play attempt that failed. This, more than anything explains our abysmal dreadzone failures.
