Looks might familiar....and it is working nearly to perfection. Their pace is a little slower than ours though. They're still fast but they don't seem to be snapping it quite as quick as we do. They just ran a sideline streak in the 1st play of the 2nd half and #1 caught it and I swear it looked like what Key did all of last season. 'Horns may end up being pretty good this year

Personally, I'm not liking the greater number of teams running the offense. I want fewer teams to have experience defending against it.

Yeah, that's a thing. I kind of think Briles thought he had intellectual property rights over the system.

Dear lord the national media is out of control about Texas being back.

I think Notre Dame was over ranked.(heaven forbid) It seemed to me like they both struggled a bit. Texas is back to a certain extent, but I think they are a year or two ahead of the curve on saying Texas is truly back. My bet is they finish the season low in the rankings, or even almost ranked. That kid needs a little seasoning before they can make claims, he is going to make a lot of freshman mistakes. Both teams need to clean up their penalties, work on their special teams, and get a little more sound on their fundamentals. That game was a comedy of errors.

Texas needed a win to help thoses players believe again. With Houston beating Oklahoma and Tcu along with baylor having problems. Texas could slip into the national championship playoff.

It won't be long until someone uncovers a new system called the "power-I" and touts the benefits of controlling the ball and the clock for 3/4 of a game...

You're taking me back to high school...watching Jarron Cherry and Andre Baul line up in the Power I at Union and running almost every play. There was a 35-0 homecoming win, where Cherry ran for 210 yards and 4 tds on just six carries. Baul had 103 yards on 13 carries. Union's two quarterbacks were a combined 3-of-6 passing for 82 yards. One of those QBs was freshman Justin Fuente.

That sounds like a game against Rogers back in those days.

I believe it was against Memorial in 1991.
I used to run the scoreboard at Skelly when Rogers played home games there in the mid-90's. I remember Jenks came in one time and rolled up 60 pts and 500 yds by half time. Rocky Calmus, Bobby Klinck wreaked havoc. Rogers had -30 yards at half time. You'd look at the Jenks sideline and see 75-80 kids suited out, Rogers had like 40. If people just saw the score they'd think Jenks was running up the score...but they literally handed the ball off every play after the midway point of the 2nd quarter. I'd swear the Rogers kids had no idea how to tackle and would sidestep Calmus coming through.
