In the 4th quarter after Ewers basically gave the game away with that ridiculous fumble-6, I'm not sure we threw the ball again.  And surprise surprise-- it worked.


Moving this discussion from today's SOC thread to the proper thread for yesterday's games.

And, I was right.  Here are Texas' offensive stats from the next play after Ewers' fumbled scoop-and-score for Baylor, through the end of the game, which was the final 13:30 of the 4th quarter:

22 plays
22 rushes
133 yards
14 points
TOP 10:43

That's just complete domination.  'Twas joyous to see.

We chatted a bit on the Purdue thread about this.  My idea for these lesser bowl games is to treat them as developmental in nature.  Play your starting lineup for next year, mostly.  Sure, if a senior wants to play, accomodate him.  Let's say this pushes your bowl loss rate from 50% to 70%, does it push some games next season from 50% to 55%?

I'd treat opt outs as a plus.  Tell them they can come with the team and have fun and not play, or they can go "prepare" if they wish.

We know back in the day, bowl games were exhibitions anyway.
