Texas 10

Bama 17. 

hope I’m wrong.

bonus/tiebreaker prediction- total yards from scrimmage for Alabama 

my guess- 329.  

Texas 24, bama 13.

Fuck it, we're due.  Defense steps up, ewers stays upright and saves his best performances for teams that aren't full of nerds

312 total offense for bama.  Most of it milroe scrambles though he turns it over twice

Texas -- 27

Bama -- 20

 

Bama's total yards = 348.  Our D gets two more picks.

Edited by TexArcher

Alabama - 27

Texas - 13 

Defense fights valiantly for 3 quarters and gets worn down late due to lack of support from the offense. 
 

Bama total yards, 350

Bama 35-432 yds

Texas 20

Texas 27

Yds 390

Alabama: 31

Texas: 27

Bama Yardage: 374 - exact same as last year, a metaphor

Texas comes out looking sharper on offense. They look woefully unprepared against Rice so I have to think there was a heavy focus on Bama prep over the past couple weeks. Sark schemes up some points over the first few possessions, a strong Texas defense more or less keeps a lid on Alabama through the first half, and Texas takes a lead into the locker room. The kool aid is flowing, the game thread is a unabashed circle jerk.

Texas finds itself with a 10-14 point third quarter lead... and Alabama has Texas exactly where they want them. We've all seen this movie before. We cling to hope that this time will be different but it feels the exact same as things start to unwind. The Texas offense stalls as they simply cannot run the ball on Alabama's front and Ewers's play deteriorates when he's asked to make plays off script. Alabama's offense isn't doing anything special but as their snap count mounts they start gashing the Texas defense for chunk yardage with regularity. Texas gets the ball back with 3-4 minutes left but can't execute a go-ahead/game-winning drive.

 

Texas - 58

Bama - 7

278 yards

You guys predicting a Texas loss are a bunch of pussies!

Texas 2

Bama 0

A last minute safety wins it for the horns due to their dominating Defense.

 

Most likely outcome is actually:

Bama 37

Texas 23 (5 FG’s for Sideshow)

Bama with 370 yards.

Texas - 27

Alabama - 21

350 yard for Bama

Defensive battle

Texas 17

Bama 13

225 yards for bama

Man, we're gonna beat Bama

 

23-21

 

 

Texas 13

Bama 27

The blue print to beat the offense is crystal clear, Texas has a successful opening drive to take the lead, defense stone walls Bama and we are feeling good. Texas O comes out, Bama starts showing false fronts pass protection breaks down Ewers take some brutal hits trying to take deep shots and he starts seeing ghosts. Sailing deep balls throwing, into double coverage no push from the line and the Texas offense stalls out. Defense is able to get two takeaways from Milroe in Bama territory but we only get 6 points of them. It’s 10-14 going into the half but the defense gets worn out in the second half and Bama pulls away.

17-31 Alabama

Alabama came into DKR last year with some hubris and expected to roll the Horns. I expect they’ll be more focused in Tuscaloosa with something to prove, and their power running game will wear us down in the 4th.

Ultimately, their roster is still significantly stronger than ours… I was watching their game vs Middle Tennessee, and let’s just say that I didn’t see any Jett Bush or Michael Taeffes on the field.

Texas 24

Bama 17

285 total yards. 

 

Quinn breaks the tie on an AD Mitchell slant before the defense closes it out. 

25-23 Texas

Murphy leads the team for a last second Bert 55 yard FG to win

 

Texas 20

Alabama 10

JT Daniels will be the best QB we face in the first two weeks of the season.

Still can't convert TDs in the red zone or connect on big plays.

But Jaylen Ford intercepts 3 passes for TDs.

Bert drags his red hairy nuts across Bama's face for the rest.
