So with those numbers you gave above, even if we had a serviceable offense we would be in business.
I am not completely sold on this defense - it's just too good to be true. I keep thinking we are merely playing over our head, and that reality will hit home soon. We are coming off some awful years of defense, I don't see how it just turns around like that.
I can see how our offense would suck, and it does. We've gotta roll some dice and take chances with some young players.
Going forward, I want to get the big beefy players like Ok State, Baylor and the SEC. Ever noticed the size difference? Did you see Ok State vs. Tech the other night? Mason Rudolph was bigger than anyone on the Tech defense. And Briles recruited monsters to Baylor, even though Rhule is clueless for sure.
Texas recruiting has suffered a whole lot worse than the gullible rankings have indicated.
