The Red River Rivalry! This game thread is dedicated to our beloved Ray Gator, who always enjoyed doing this game! On the road, Texas is favored by 15. Last year - they lost the game 34-30 - and it was a doozy!
I have always wondered why this game is always played at noon: or so it seems to me. That’s 11:AM out there. It has occurred to me this game is played at a neutral site connected to the Texas State Fair grounds and the games I’ve watched it’s going on at same time. I suppose this could be a reason.
Game is at 3:30 edt this year. It has been at noon for quite a few years to try and tone down the fans.
Brent Venables might not be a good HC, but that dude knows how to coach defense. Elite everywhere he has been, a better defense than Muschamp but sadly a worse offense.
