Utah's pretty good.  Texas State should not be beating any P5 teams.

Baylor doesn't give UT any trouble.  RRR is shaping up to be a good one.

This weekend's Texas-Kansas game features the nation's only undefeated vs undefeated, ranked vs ranked matchup.

I sure hope we don't poop the bed in front of the big national audience.  

We're DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDD!

Baylor isn't supposed to be as bad as they were beat by Texas last Saturday. The preseason publications ranked them in the 30-50 range.

After all the talk of slow starts and sleepwalking through the first 3 quarters, Texas manhandled the Bears out of the gate.

Ewers threw downfield with fantastic accuracy. Brooks posted just over 100 on the ground. Worthy only had three catches, but Sanders stepped up with over 100 yds receiving.

4-0 and hitting their stride.

Sure hope so.

We were plagued by a special teams meltdown that could have been disastrous against a better opponent, and our defensive secondary continues to be a team weakness, letting too many deep balls past them.  Kansas is a much better offensive team than Baylor or anyone else we've faced all season, and allowing their receivers to run free deep, could be the difference between winning and losing.

That game went about like I'd expected. I believe this forum is where we're supposed to mention "Trench Ponies". Texas has them.
Baylor is a well coached team that shows up to run the football - with an OL that doesn't worry anyone.
A couple of times, Baylor's speedy WR ran by a Texas defense only pressuring with 3. When given time, their QB completed passes. When Texas forced the issue, there was never a chance.
Texas could have run a 5-wide offense all game and scored 100.
This was the best I've seen Baylor play all season. Their star players put up some numbers. They just don't have near enough of them to move the needle.

Quit dropping the friggin' kicks!

Kansas has a solid team this year.  They won't beat the Longhorns but should provide an excellent tune up.
Meanwhile the Sooners have hapless ISU this week.  This should pad the Sooner's stats so that the media can hype the RRS.
