Did anyone call for a wellness check on MDot?

I mean, he was the one calling for a fairly lopsided Texas victory.  He shouldn't have been surprised by the outcome.

I'm not going to skewer UM for this game.

Texas is really good. Maybe even great. Hard to see and obvious loss on this schedule. UGA plays in Austin.

I think UGa is a much better top to bottom team.  And Austin isn't exactly known for being a tough place to play.  Not by SEC standards.  The Swamp?  Yes.  Death Valley? yes.  Austin?  - Sometimes.  
Maybe the best part (or the worst part ) is that whoever wins the UGA Tex game isn't out of the CFP automatically.

Meh-- I'll take an actual player's opinion over that of a hated rival.

Alabama players said Austin was just as loud and intimidating as any SEC stadium they'd ever played in.  We tend to bring it for big games.  Quoting veteran Alabama LB Will Anderson after the game in Austin in 2022:

"To be honest, since I've been here these last three years, this is probably the loudest environment I've played in," Anderson said. "Probably the hardest game I've played in since I've been in college football. Their fans were super loud, they had a lot of energy. But the atmosphere was crazy."

And Georgia's certainly earned the right to be ranked ahead of Texas based on history.  Not this season, though.  This season they've done nothing, to prove anything.  I don't see any reason to believe Clemson is any better than Michigan.

Anyway, Horns have to take care of business before that, no chance to look ahead.

Yeah it's not always the best thing.  But I hope the Horns are ranked highly enough, often enough, to get accustomed to the pressure.  

One thing about stadium noise for opposing teams if they get used to it in the SEC.  It's common, teams prepare for it, and know how.  The freshmen come in and at least experience it on the sidelines, if they don't play much, and it really only impacts the offense.  I wouldn't like having a freshman QB with his first meaningful game in Knoxville or BR, or Austin.
