How is this all going to happen when we’re already full?RoadDawg55 said:
Nixon was #2 because Davis and Newton hadn’t played in fall camp. I remember Grubb saying they had proven nothing and he had very little opinion of both.BeerThirty said:The way Nixon just disappeared was a little surprising. He was getting some snaps early and then was just gone. I think he is out. Dumas too. I've heard Sunday can't catch the ball so he is probably out. I hope Adams stays
Nixon couldn’t get on the field at Nebraska, albeit as a freshman. He’s not very good. Like Dumas, the coaches brought him on to add competition.
I think Davis or Newton leaves. Possibly Ngata too if he’s 3rd/4th string after Spring. Tybo Rodgers will be a good RB for us and it doesn’t always take RB’s 2+ years to make an impact. -
As you saw, our daWgs didn't show up to lose.Doogles said:
I'll take Texas Papa all day. The 42-yard run was a carbon copy of Chris Polk.DoogerMcFarland said:
Still not sure there is one unless you're hoping Ngata can be the player he was supposed to be coming out of high school.Doogles said:Who is the take-it-to-the-house back?
If we're ok with labeling Johnson as Papa 2.0 i'm good with the consistent churner who gains tough yards, keeps Penix erect, and can catch.
But whose the guy that's gonna blow the lid off when the D is worn down?
Johnson should be a better version of Taulapapa.
Quite honestly, from the highlights, he doesn't look like faster than Texas Papa
Fucking Quenten Moore showed out.
Penix struggled but everyone else hooked em -

We beat Texas by 30 if we had Alamo Bowl KP1 playing in that game.

Davis was returning a KO and Sunday was on kick coverage I believe.PostGameOrangeSlices said:
How did that happen?bananasnblondes said:
Supposedly Sunday gave Davis the concussion that kept him out of the Alamo Bowl.JoeEDangerously said:I heard Sunday already got kicked off
He just sold the couch
Surprised Sunday never got any meaningful snaps. He looked like a better Dick Newt -
Kwat has always been able to stop a blow out and the long ball
Once UW went David Shaw on his ass it was over -
It really reminded me of the UCLA game.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

The two things they had in common is all the BPE hype and talk going into it. He pressed against UCLA and he pressed against Texas.
He's proven he's a gamer, but those two games had as much hype and build up around him specifically, and he sorta shit the bed.
Edit to say this really bodes well for the team moving forward. They learned from their mistakes, and were able to win a big game in a hostile environment while playing a C+/B- game. Also Texas had big boy athletes all over the field and we didn't crumble. Much better game for the future of the program than playing Tulane in the Cotton. -
Our TE group is so fucking loaded. No surefire Jeramy Stevens or ASJ type, but there are 3+ NFL players in that group.haie said:

Westover is a great athlete and sneaky good. Best athlete of the group. I really like him because he can go outside and in the slot and hit the blocks on DB’s.
Not every TE needs to be 6’6” 260+. Westover at 6’3” 245, 4.6 speed, 38+ vert, and quickness is a great fit in this offense. He has some experience at fullback. Watch, he will play 5-10 years in the NFL.
Culp is huge and is a good player despite the annoying drops. I don’t think he’s as good of athlete as he was hyped to be, but he’s a good player.
Moore is still raw, but he’s huge and was the blocking TE. He has a lot of room for improvement. He played a good amount of snaps and his snap count was often pretty close to Westy’s and Culp’s.
Otton is big, he’s gonna be a smart player, and hopefully he’s a bigger version of his brother. He will be good.
Cuervas killed it as a freshman in the FCS and had other big schools after him. I don’t think he plays a lot next year but he’s a good get. -
Westover needs to quit trying to long jump people.

I want to see more Moore. The two games I saw in person he stands the fuck out for being massive.
Not a TE but Kalepo is another guy that looks giant in a sea of giants.
I think the OL + TE are going to fuck people up. One of these backs better figure it out. -
