Projecting the Texas depth chart for season opener vs. Notre Dame

LT - Connor Williams
LG - Alex Anderson (replacement)
C - Jake McMillon (replacement)
RG - Kent Perkins
RT - ?



See Rocket89's post for more detail on each.

Getting thin on their OL. McMillan played DT snd ST teams last year, did not start but played in twelve games. No college OL game experience. Okafor, Hudson and Delance are all true freshmen.

if theirs no OL Patrick Vahe then I take back what I said.

I don't know if UTs left side is better than NDs or not but their pretty good.

Lol what? Texas' o line has been dreadful for like a decade. Most fans I've spoken to still consider it a weakness. Comparing their left side to ours is silly.

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Waht?

I'd like to double this sentiment with a TF appended.

Starting OG Patrick Vahe injured in practice - Barking Carnival

8/26/16

Starting guard Patrick Vahe was injured today in practice. Word is that it’s an ankle. Severity and outlook for return are currently unknown. Zach Shackleford and Tristan Nickelson remain in the pit with their own injuries and the staff are more optimistic about Nickelson’s return for the season opener than Shackleford.

So, if you’re counting at home, it’s 9 days until Notre Dame and Texas is down 3 of 5 starting OL.

If you’ve read your TTF, you also know that the Notre Dame front four is huge and features two future NFL draft picks in 320 pound NT Jarron Jones and 290 pound SDE Isaac Rochell.

Barking Carnival is hilarious today.

I don't dislike UT, and hope they win their other 11 games convincingly. While these OL injuries likely increase our odds of winning somewhat, they may also substantially lower the Longhorns' ceiling for the rest of the season. So I'm not inclined to celebrate them.

My UT friend is raving about their WRs as if they're all the second coming of randy moss. He thinks everyone of them is faster than our CB's and they should put up 50 against us. Can't wait till we thrash em

Wasn't Moss's second coming at F$U?

Before his third coming at Marshall.

john burt is good but ND has cole luke and shaun Crawford.

 

[woolybug25]

If those two guys sit and our defense doesn't eat, then win or lose, it will not be a good sign for the season. That is dreadful luck on their side. Like Whiskey, I kinda like UT and their fans (shaggy is comedic gold). Unfortunately... We are going to have to slaughter them again it appears.

Why dafaq I care about this i have no freakin clue...


moving on, my bad.

Clearly this is what happens when one stirs salsa with a cheap, imported wooden spoon.

That's what I told him. He kept going on about Duverney having elite speed, even though he's 2nd string, and yada yada. I said too bad we're playing football and not track and field. I think we roll

Cal plays Hawaii tonight in Australia or some shit. You can watch that as like Malcolm X tea.

Is it a penalty if a dingo runs on the field, steals the ball, then stores it in a Joey's pouch?

Not saying we have USC speed everywhere, but I think your friend does the drugs.

... and they are not speed.

It's probably cocaine. There's a ton of cocaine down here.

I am sooo excited about this game. Most of all, for me, I'm excited to see how our WR's perform. I just watched Isaac Rochell's interview regarding captaincy on youtube and when asked about what the biggest improvement has been on D this year, he said pass rush. I love it. I expect big things in this game.
GO IRISH

Yes, I forgot,... Wooden sticks are only used for deep frying chile relleno's corn dog style...

Hahaha! I like it. I'm really excited to see how guys like Boykin, ESB, CJ, McKinley and Claypool make out. I think Weishar, Boykin, ESB in trips in the redzone would be great and could be a great outside zone run to the opposite side of the field as Safeties would have to cover the strong side.

GO IRISH!!

While I don't relish in hearing about injuries to anyone, we always have our problems to deal with so I don't have much sympathy if they have to roll out five freshmen on the o-line.

I think they should roll out 5 Joe Schmidts on the OL, and should just try to yell at our defenders as a form of pass pro.

But forreal, I was reading about how they're supposed to have this Baylor-like vertical passing attack, and I suddenly fear greatly for our safeties. I believe in our corners... it's our safeties against 4-verts that I'm worried about now.

True. But with an inexperienced offensive line will the QB have time for deep routes and long developing plays?

Going to be a great game to test how stupid BVG is or isn't... we better be playing like 80% cover 2 with the FS just making sure no one gets behind him.

Depends on if 4-vert is their base offense, if so, then it is designed to attack a base cover 2. Instead, we should be running a Cover 2 Man or a Cover 4. Just my opinion.

All the disguised blitzes... All the linemen in coverage, all the downs.

I believe the 4 very is there base, the depth chart prediction a couple of pages back and had 4 receiver positions.
