I don't see Texas a favorite in any way, shape, or form. We had all of those players listed in key roles last year, and lost to TCU, Baylor, ISU, and OU.
Coaching matters, and OU has a younger, smarter, looser, more talented coach and its not close.

That was a long time ago. Sure, Roy hung around for 2003. DJ and Ced hung around for '04. But once VY left after '05, it all pretty much ended. If Ossai has the season many think he can have, then for sure he's going to get legit first round buzz. And he'd be a damn fool for not jumping.
It's this way for obvious reasons, but honestly, I can't ever remember a modern-day draft that had so little buzz.
Have to hope the gap has been closed considerably in coaching.
Also, the point is that Texas might not be the favorite, but there's no reason why it should be an underdog, either.
Riley vs Herman gap is there. Hopefully Ash has a way to cover Riley's WR's but I will believe it when I see it.
Perhaps. But again, the upcoming buzz for it is as flat as a bottle of coke that's been open for a week.
Finally, a f'n HC who actually gets the importance of swinging big lumber the moment he arrives in Austin.
@Ketchum do you see a possibility this year, with the way things are setting up for Texas, and unfortunately as easy as a schedule aggy has in comparison to most years, that they play in either a New Years six or playoff game?
I ask because I have an aggy that fishes in a tournament trail I’m in that mentioned this possibility over the weekend and is already wanting to bet on the outcome.

I dunno that I would say that. It's the only thing people talk are talking about, other than the Jordan doc.
A bit of an odd list. For one, MJ's "shrug" is arguably his most iconic moment. I mean, for sure, it's higher than #9. Secondly, how do you not list his '98 title-winning shot?
I left the 98 shot off by accident. Should have been top 4.
It's MY list, so it can be however odd I want it to be.
I remember they had a really good line that year. There were twins Roessler (or something) that I thought went D1... maybe even Texas. I joined the military after I graduated in 92, so I didn’t follow recruiting for 10 years after that.
Roger Roesler played on that great OL that blocked for Ricky. He was Class of 1996, I believe.
Not sure if he had older brothers.
