    Richmond McGee and the extra point team left me speechless, Mack will spend extra time on this bull this week, which he shouldnt have to at this point in the season

    Jamaal Charles looked really, really good. PLUS he didnt fumble!!
    he will be the next great UT tailback

    Ramonce did not fumble either and had some really good runs and a few catches, however he didnt carry one time from the tailback position, which i think is very foolish, especially when Selvin is getting hurt and fumbling.
    expect Ramonce to get some traditional handoffs vs Ohio St.
    speaking of Selvin, maybe this guy is fragile, i hate to say it. still has it ALL to prove, also hang on to the ball you chode.
    Vince was pretty on target, he had some good passes, the kind he needs to throw next week, but he didnt chunk the ball deep, which they could have tried once
    David Thomas, this guy loves to score
    O-Line great job with pass blocking
    Orakpo looked promising at DE, maybe a force THIS season
    Robert Killebrew looked nice too, he can hit and made some good tackles
    i like what the D did by sticking to the basics, i didnt see many blitzes, none from the secondary and no stunts, i hope Chizik is saving them for saturday
    i didnt see much of Roy Miller, nor Quan who had 1 catch i think
    and who i wanted to see Jordan Shipley, i guess theyre playing it safe with Shipley?
    that leads me my man Henry Melton
    this guy reminded me of Ramonce's first game and Vince Young's first game, the guy just came out and started scoring TDs, although this dude was rumblin, stumblin, bumblin, dam would yall want to have to tackle this guy on your own?
    if it were not for that fumble out of bounce, his game would have been perfect
    this guy is going to be sick

    saturday at OSU will be a classic

    ...there goes more of Jim's reverse mojo! Don't buy into it UT fans!

    Here is my bet Mikey...no reverse mojo here at all. I know UT is the best team in the country this year and they are the best team in this game by a wide margin.

    I am not only looking for UT to win, but to win by 20 pts.

    You can't determine anything from a victory against Lafayette.

    not scoffing just saying the entire article referred to the Lafayette game. You can't tell crap from that game.

    2centsworth, you bet your ass you can tell some things about your team, even when playing against LLA. 2-3 seasons ago we played these guys in the season opener, and on one of our first posessions Simms threw an INT and LLA was in the lead. Of course, Applewhite came in and saved the day and we ended up routing those guys. BUT, from that one game against a sub-par team, you could tell right then and there that Simms had a tendency to lock on to receivers and give his reads away. This tendency would of course come back to haunt him in games against OU and in a certain Big XII Championship game against Colorado. I was at that game and remember thinking 'this Simms kid has got to do a better job of masking his reads, or he's going to get us in a load of trouble with the passing game'. Funny how things work out, huh?

    On to last Saturday against LLA, Texas came out about as well oiled and polished in an opening season game as I've EVER seen, period. The O line blocked well and opened up huge holes to run through, Vince passed well and ran when needed, and the D looked very tough. I won't talk about special teams except to say that they had better have their act together come Saturday night in the shoe. So, yes, you can tell allot about your team depite the compe ion level, and I think this team is ready to play Ohio State.

    happened to be at that game 2/3 years ago. I could tell simms was going to have a rough year. I'll concede overall Texas looks like they still have momentum from last year. However, as far as individual players it's hard to get a sense of how good some of those guys are going to be because this year's lafayette team looked horrible. plus add katrina on top of that.

    We'll get a better sense of how good the team can be this weekend.

    For the record, I hope that Texas wins every game this year except the one in College Station.

    i don't think that's possible anymore. but one loss would still be pretty good. i think there will be some good teams with only one loss at that point.

    i didn't get to see the a&m game because the notre dame game was on here (no idea why they didn't switch out to a close game... but i forget it was the irish). i was reading that when a&m scored near the end they were only up by 1 and went for the pat instead of the 2 point conversion. hmmm... i guess there are always what ifs...

    I am just stocked about UT's season. But how they do against Ohio State will determine the rest of the season, in my opinion. GO HORNS GO!
