    It is kinda silly to count a TD twice while computing the relative strength of two teams, but OK. Texas still returns more TDs accounted for.

    Except in rare cases where the ball gets batted back to the passer, the passer does not score the touchdown.

    I'm not sure where you get 60%. Texas returns players who score 31 of the 55 rushing TDs and 17 of 26 TDs receiving for a total of 48 of 81 for 59% returning on offense. Those 48 TDs are still more than the 41 offensive TDs scored by tOSU last year, and alot more than the 27 TD production that...

    The way it was left at the end of spring, Quan was Flanker, Pittman was the slot receiver and Sweed was at split end. UT will run 3 wide at least 50% of the time, so that is what you will usually see. Everyone who has reported from practices says that Shipley is the best WR on the team. He plays...

    He had 2 interceptions and 2 fumbles (neither lost). It was not his best game.

    Ramonce was the #3 RB when he left last february. His amount of work was mostly a function of the injuries to the top 2 RBs, otherwise he would have never played RB last year. In a radio interview yesterday Mack said Jamaal ran track at his new playing weight 205. As another poster said Selvin...

    I'm pretty sure I already did that, so I won't bore you with the details again. Ramonce is a talent, and we'll miss him.

    The reality of football is that defensive tackles do not draw double teams every play in the 4-3, especially when they are in 3 technique. It just can't happen, since that means either the TE has to block the end or a RB has to double. More often the QB just has to release the ball before the DT...

    Can you please answer the question? To flip it around. In UTs scheme they do swap sides strong to weak. The weakside DT is called an NT by the staff because he generally lines up off the center's outside shoulder (1 technique). This generally leads to him being double teamed by the guard. The...

    I do have a serious football question and I'm too lazy to que up one of your games from last year. Do your defensive tackles switch sides based on the strength of the offensive alignment? And, is there a preference over which DT is over center? The reason I ask is because 1 of the two spots on...

    I didn't make that assertion. You can't campare records as an asistant coach with a head coach.

    This again, you mean the same Big 12 that went 5-3 in bowl games, the best of any conference, while they were underdogs in 7 of them. (The Big Ten went 3-4 for comparison)

    But his team wasn't facing teams coached by Div 1A coaches. He did very well coaching against lesser competition, but it isn't the same as facing a Div1A program.

    Once again 3 I only consider wins as a Div1A coach to be relevant. Lower division wins are in no way comparable. As for the "ANY", it was a bit of hyperbole on my part. If you go back 20 years 1986-2005 Mack drops to third behind Bowden and Paterno, and Mack has only coached 21 years in Div1A...

    It's not bad, but not as impressive as when it is done entirely at the Div1A level. I expect Mack will become the third coach to have 200+ wins in 20 years at the Div 1A level. The other two are Osbourne and Bowden. The only other coach, aside from Bowden and Osborn, with more Div 1A wins than...

    He is the winningest or second winningest coach between 2005 and any year you care to use as a reference. He is one of only six coaches in the post WWII era to win over 100 games in a 10 year period. What else is he supposed to be doing? Regarding the point that he ties up players early. I see...
