Well, Texas probably gave LSU the toughest game this year. I'm not a Texas fan either, but after watching OU and Baylor.............
Baylor was really well coached and you saw a Bowl game that is likely Rhule's last game there.
He is almost certainly gone to a head coaching job.
That was as flat as flat can be when your program savior is bolting.
But they were no where near as talented as Georgia. Not even close.
OU was pretty good early on because they have an established offense and brought in a maxed out senior QB.
They didn't improve and actually struggled the entire second half the season as defenses saw what to take away.
I knew they'd get the brakes beaten off them by LSU.
UT lost a couple guys to injury early and they are always going to fair best versus team that wanna muscle up as they also have these 4 star kids galore.
They struggle in the B12 with getting out X'd and O'd and by every team wanting badly to knock them off.
With some added depth they'll be nasty. --If the coaching improves.
UT and OU should be in B12 title contention every year but it is a nasty conference to navigate.
Even when most teams are really like this year.
9 conf games min 4 every year on the road is tough.
Add in a 10th P5 game and that is a lot of weeks of needing to be ready to go.
UT next year plays
USF at home
LSU in Baton Rouge
UTEP (easy win)
BYE
then 9 straight weeks of conferences foes.
That's not easy to handle.
