This has been 1 long a** season. 9 games, 6 off weeks, and the 10th game is tomorrow night.

I think CO took some positive steps with their season. They weren't just hampered. by covid19. They were also hampered by a mid season coaching change and limited opportunities to recruit their 2021 recruiting class.

Their rb Jarek Broussard is a 3rd year sophomore out of the Dallas area. He's had 2 ACL's but he's finally healthy and he had an outstanding season. I believe he was the Pac XII XII player of the year on offense. The latest Shenault brother is a freshman with promise. Their qb Sam Noyer is a 5th year senior who had a good season. And fwiw they have a promising young 4* receiver out of AZ named Brendan Rice who happens to be the son of the great Jerry Rice. From what I read he's a good special teams player. But they don't have a good defense and their leading tackler is out for the AB.

The guys on fanatic perspective called the game 38/17 TX and the other one called it 35/21 TX. I saw where one person called it 37/31 TX. I think it will be high scoring game.

TX 45
CO 34 and

As for the other 3 games.

Against OK ISU like a team who was on the big stage for the first time. By the time they calmed down OK was up 17/0. Although they made a comeback it was to late. But imho if they relax I see them winning a close one

ISU 28
OR 27

I honestly don't know about this one I saw FL twice in 1 game they destroyed GA. In the other one they had an inexplicable loss to LSU. Their qb Kyle Trask is a Heisman finalist and is probably the best qb and the best offense and defense OK will see this year. FL has the better qb but that doesn't mean Rattler can't outplay him. I just don't know about this one I'll just say

OK 38
FL 37

OB
Just for fun I'm going to say
MB 38

In order our game is tomorrow night, OK is on Wednesday, and the other two are on Saturday.

We suck and they suck. Our offense is going to look like a massive jumble of patch work. There will be penalties, missed blocks and missed assignments. Colorado averages 54 yards of penalties a game. They are rushing for about 200 a game and throwing for a shade over 200 a game as well.
Their offense is about as average as it gets and their defense is about as average at it gets, as well. They fvcking blow. Problem is, we are going to have a crap ton of crap plays happen because of all the back ups playing.

This game will be ugly as hell. I'm thinking high 30s to mid 30s will be the final. Something like 38-34.

Florida’s defense is not good at al and neither is OU’s defense. This will be a shootout and probably be whoever has the ball last type of game. Florida has several key people opting out which is a subject that I could get on a rant about all college athletes but let’s not. This one is a toss up to me. If all players played for Florida I might give a slight edge to Florida. Now I think whoever runs out of gas loses.

I put money on Texas to win by more than 9. I think it’s a 14-17 point win.

I don’t think Oregon is very good this year so I’m going Iowa St by 10.

I think A&M controls the clock and line of scrimmage and runs UNC down late. Second half I see A&M taking over and pulling away a bit and winning by 10-14. I think UNC starts fast and then the game will settle in and A&M will control it.

I saw an ESPN ticker yesterday that noted Florida will not have their top 4 receivers. A combination of opting out for NFL prep and covid.

I disagree. If there is one thing about Herman it is that when given time to prepare for a bowl game his teams always come out and perform well. We have seen that the last 3 years. I think Bijan has a big game and we roll in this one.

Thanks for the update I wasn't aware of this. If that's the case than OK should win.

Yes. Herman can plan for games way out. But he's lost 3 starters on his offensive line.

But we may have finally found the right combination on the ol. DK got moved to rt after Cosmi quit on us. But when DK had that terrible injury Christian Jones moved to rt which is his natural position. And then Andrej Karic stepped in at lt and played great. But best of all was Jake Majors stepped in at center and played great this kid is a winner. And you know what happened in the KSU game when Majors and Karic stepped in Jones went back back to his best position? There were no more missed assignment's and no more false starts. With Majors, and Karic we have 2 true freshman and in Jones we have a redshirt freshman and were set for the next 2 years. And with Majors in there Junior Angilou might raise his game. Maybe were on the way to finally having good ol again. Finally. This could be big for Bijan amd Roschon.

And now Tariq Black has opted out. Big deal he was nothing special.

Well that means is that Jake, Jordan, Joshua will get most of the touches tonight and maybe 1 more J and that would be Jared Wiley. Unfortunately that also means Brendan Schooler will have the ball thrown to him. But hopefully the 2 W's will get some playing time I'm speaking of Washington and Woodward. Who knows maybe even Malcom Epps.

And CO's #1 receiver, La'Vonte Shenault has been suspended for the AB. We might get to see Jerry Rice's boy Brendan Rice play tonight.

You get a game like this when pride is what matters most makes games like this one enjoyable to watch.

I read where an AB official said that the CO fans he met were excited to be in my old stomping grounds. I hope the TX fans feel the same way.

Oklahoma lite is putting it on Manny Diaz and the U right now in the cheez it bowl: 21-7, with a missed fg.
 
And down goes Miami qb King, who just this week said he was coming back next year. I believe he was originally recruited and signed by applewhite for Houston.

I saw the knee injury. King made the right decision to play another year. Regardless, I just don't see him as a QB in the NFL.
 
I did say 45/34 TX and that's 79 points. The final score was 55/23 and that's 78 points. I guess that means I got the o/u right 😃

Why couldn't we have scored 10 fewer points lol? Why couldn't CO have scored 10 more points? Hey do you get any money for getting the o/u right?
 
Oklahoma is just dick punching Florida like a dwarf at a nudist fight camp.

You know you have to wonder. I mean you go to FL to play in games like this. And your top 4 receivers decide to blow it off? Wth? You don't want to run the risk of injury? Hell you've gone 4 years without getting injured and now you're afraid of 1 game?

And another thing about FL Dan Mullen let them go home for Xmas even though they only had 2 weeks to get ready to play. Why didn't you stay home and let your Heisman finalist qb some time to get in sync with the other receivers? They only had 3 practices since the AL game. OK as well only had 2 weeks to get ready and I'll bet they had a lot more than 3 practices.

Lastly because of opt outs and injuries FL only has 59 scholarship players tonight. So this final score should not be a surprise.

H*ll I still don't care. I may not be a fan of sooner fb but if they can put a beat down on an SEC team in the CB I'm cool with that.

SEC apologists tomorrow "well, Florida didn't REALLY want to be there..."

You know what I about FL's lack of players? The SEC finally gets a taste of what it's like WHEN they are the overmatched team. I'll bet its not tasting very good. Fwiw some people are picking Cincinnati in an upset over GA. And never underestimate Mack Brown in a bowl game when he's had time to prepare he was 10/5 when he was with us. Could the SEC go 0 for 3? And what if ND can find a leprechaun on Friday? Not likely but still....

Well clob94 it's 48/13 with 10 minutes to go. This one's over I'm not going to watch anymore.

C'mon Cincy
C'mon Mack
Go get those SEC effers
