Time to “run the table”. That is, Horns must WIN their next 6-games (after the OU game) to escape this squawk 7700 disaster in progress. Good news is that Texas has indeed “run the table” before & more than once. A little cypherin’ shows the percentage of times UT has attained this objective in the last 73 - years.
Last 10-yrs. = 0.0%
Last 20-yrs. = 15%
Last 30-yrs. = 23%
Last 40-yrs. = 20%
Last 50-yrs. = 20%
Last 60-yrs. = 25%
Last 70-yrs. = 23%
Last 73-yrs. = 24%
Looks like the Horn strategy of losing early and then running the table to win the conference and get into the playoffs has some merit. Just not very much.
