OG Cedric Dockery is out for the season with a torn ACL from the OU game. Also, Terrel Brown, Hemann Okam, and I think one of the Griffin brothers sat out for the Baylor game. We're sure lucky that we don't have as many injuries as USC though.
I wouldn't even Stoop(s) so low as to claim injuries unless it were to an obvious once in a decade player like VY.
If I wanted to wuss out I say if UT had TB, Kindle & blah blah blah UT'd would've beaten Ohio St.
C'mon, at sometime if you say you're a fan you gotta claim a team win, lose, draw, injured ot not.
Yeah, I was wondering why we had Melton and a freshman in the secondary. Melton actually did decent. The freshman, that is another story.
Are you talking about number 2 sergio kindle? I watched the fourth quarter, he was in at the time. Made a couple good tackles if I recall.
I think he is talking about Deon Beasley.
I had to miss much of the game due to researching my scientific credentials. I did see Lokey 1 step away from the QB a few times. That boy's a hustler.
Who else looked ? Who played good?
Dude UT is ed without Dockery when we play a more physical defensive team....
Yeah, I am talkin about Beasley, I couldn't remember his name.
Kindle is a LB, I was talking about the freshman CB Beasley. He was making a lot of freshman mistakes.
That's the dude they originally planned to redshirt right? He's neither our 3rd nor 4th CB, damn our secondary blows
I still like UT's O-line though.
Like I said, if it were VY out that would be something else.
Did you see that arrogant dumbass Baylor QB throw the Horns down sign after that long TD pass on their 1st O play of the game?
I respected Baylor til that.
Those s got what was coming to them after that awesome QB leader threw that sign. An ass kicking on TV.
Wilson predicting they would upsetI still like UT's O-line though.

Wilson, so bold with his prediction earlier in the week, also got burned on Sweed's long TD in the fourth.
Matt Melton returned an interception 34 yards and Texas led 28-10 at halftime.
"We made Pop Warner mistakes," Shelton said. "We cut out those fumbles and interceptions and it's a whole different ballgame."
After Bell cut the Texas lead to 28-17 with his TD catch, McCoy went right back to work. His fourth scoring pass covered 19 yards to Sweed and the rout was on.
After the game, Wilson wasn't inclined to give McCoy much credit.
"We beat ourselves more than he beat us," Wilson said. "If I was a betting man, and I am not, I would bet anything that our defense would beat their offense any day of the week."
Texas players declined to comment on Wilson's bold pregame prediction of an upset. The scoreboard likely said all they would have wanted to anyway.
"We're not proud we got behind," Brown said. "But we're proud we answered."
Funny how teams that play Texas all usually end up "beating themselves"... but when they play a lesser team they don't "beat themselves". Wilson is a ing moron. That defense would give up more points if they played again.
What did Limas Sweed do that had Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum (Wally and Vex) up in arms this afternoon?
He took a shot at one of the Baylor players out of frustration. I don't know that it was as big of a deal as those guys tried to make it out to be. Although, I guess when you have no talent and have to fill three hours, you look for issues to hang your hat on.
^ Beasley/#7 has been playing a good amount already this season, but he's mostly come in on nickel situations and covered the slot reciever, he was lined up on the outside against Baylor and experienced some problems, he was the main guy that got burned on that opening pass play by Baylor that went for a TD. Beasley does have big time speed and I think he probably moves into a starting CB spot by next year.
The freshmen LB that was out there was Kindle/#2, and that kid is a beast. He is a tackling machine and I can't wait to see him out on the field more. You'll constatnly see him making special teams plays on kick-offs and he's also getting reps now at the SLB spot, Jarred Norton/#11 was also out there with him in the 2nd half, those two are our LB's of the future along with Bobino and Muckleroy. I do hope we have Brown and Marcus back for this week's game, we're going to need those guys against Nebraska!
Dockery is only a sophmore, Texas is in no way ed because he isn't out there. If it was one of the senior OLinemen, then yes, they would be.
^ Agree, we've got plenty of depth on the O line right now. I actuallly like having Blalock back at RG, a position he's a more natural fit at and also where he's projected to play in the NFL. Ulatowski at RT is looking very good as well, the kid is just a beast and plays with a real nasty streak, kind of reminds of Dan Neil, but much bigger. He'll start there the rest of the season, of course next season he and Tony Hills at LT will the only returning O linemen with any significant playing time. Dallas Griffin probably gets the start at center next year, Dockery at RG and then LG is up for grabs-although I wouldn't be surprised to see that battle come down to C. Tanner and Buck Burnett for the starting LG spot. All in all, not worried about the O line, I am worried about our secondary with our limited depth there this year and Brown, Ross and Griffin all leaving after this season, could be interesting with pass D next season.
Our secondary is going to blow so much asshole next year, it will be franchionie-nickle-esque quality.
