Not many fans I know would take Texas and 3 points

For UT to win they will have to hold TCU to under 30 and I dont think thats gonna happen

But of course one can always hope

Wish TF hadn’t started a game thread.

Texas is 1-1 with game threads and 1-0 without.

You have to ask yourself, how are the ECFGs going to interpret this hubris.  I think the smart plan would’ve been to let them imagine our spirit is still completely broken.

To paraphrase Napoleon, God is on the side of those with the better edge defenders.

TCU puts fast guys all over the offense. Texas needs the 1st half to end quickly so BJ Foster can rejoin the festivities. Basically, sound assignments and sideline to sideline defense. Rookie mistakes will show up in the endzone.

The Frog defense is complicated, but the Horn offense isn't. We don't care where TCU puts their guys, because the objective is to shove whoever is  there out of the way. Save the tricky stuff for a less well disciplined defense and just see who's stronger.

TCU has the edge, and they deserve it. I just feel that, for the first time in a long time, the team, the coaches, and the fans are all on the same page.

We are so doomed.

But you know...

After all I've endured as a Texas fan, I just consider it a moral victory when we keep the opposition under 60.

Vegas has TCU as a 3 pt favorite.   Basically calling it about even.

I enjoy our helmet value.  But I can't bring myself to bet against us.  So I'll just take the loss.

Forget what I said before.

Texas 31
TCU 21

Why do I continually do this to myself.

ECFGs who don't already know what you're really thinking are ECFGs hardly worth fearing.  

You're either pre-screwed/blessed, or else they're really impotent and don't deserve our respect.  When it comes to the ECFGs, fatalism is the only sane option.
