August 21, 20187 yr so us playing in the national championship game in 2010 got you confused and thinking it took place in the 2008 regular season?That and the fact they're doing a show about a season we didn't play for it..especially since the very next season we did.

August 21, 20187 yr It’s been great to watch Boyd grow up and develop. Every recruiting guy said this dude has NFL atheleticism if he can stay focused and mature. I hope he kills it this season and goes day 1. It’ll be a great example for the younger DBs to see a guy stay all 4 years and put themselves in a situation where they cash out big on draft day.

I'm not disagreeing here, but I'm curious who you or anyone else thinks are the top DBs in CFB this season? Greedy Williams at LSU is an easy pick. After that, maybe the Miami safety. Maybe. And then it's anyone's potluck. I definitely could see Boyd emerging as a guy taken in the middle rounds with a strong season and combine. I don't think I thought that would happen watching him even as a sophomore. If only he wasn't prone to boneheadery.

August 21, 20187 yr An NFL QB throwing to two NFL WR’s and an NFL quality Third down back made the 2008 offense go, but even then defenses started catching up to the offense by the end of the year, because God knows the OC wasn’t about to innovate once he stumbled onto his rich vein of offense. That continued into 2009 where we had the QB and one NFL WR, and the exact same offense to a fare thee well. Of course it dropped off. A well tuned short passing machine was reduced to the roommate connection, hero ball and minor contributions by Goodwin and friends. I know. Goodwin is an NFL WR. But he was a frosh then and Quan was an older than dirt senior and Ogbannaya was also in his final year in 2008. Edited August 21, 20187 yr by Bobby_Batronic

August 21, 20187 yr Boyd will be trying to play his way into the conversation as a top 10 cb and a possible draft in the 2nd round. Would be a miracle for him to make top 4 and furst round imo

Ivan Williams day at Nebraska in 2002 (which I saw in person) was pretty awesome. There were a few others. I am growing soft in my old age. Nebraska was 6-7 that year. Right on Greg’s wheelhouse.

August 22, 20187 yr 3 hours ago, longhornmatt said: My general recollection was also that the 2008 team was way better than 2009 despite not getting to the championship game - because our offense was great in 2008 and back to frustrating Greg Davis nonsense in 2009 even though we probably should have been as good or better with so many guys returning. However, when you look at the overall stats I think you could argue the 2009 team as a whole really was as good or better than 2008 thanks to the absurdly good defense. In 2008, we averaged 6.5 yards per play on offense and gave up 5.3 yards per play on defense. In 2009, we gained 5.6 yards per play on offense and allowed only 3.8 yards per play on defense. These aren’t adjusted stats, and in 2008 the Big 12 was full of great offenses to skew things a bit, but that’s still a big difference on defense, and actually a higher delta in 2009. In addition, we hardly forced any turnovers in 2008 while our 2009 defense was historically good at forcing turnovers and scoring on defense. I believe we lost a WR to transfer or grades before the 09 season. I could be misremembering, but I seem to remember he was a slot guy that was a big loss. Anyone remember that ?
August 22, 20187 yr Brandon Collins. Wasn't a huge loss, but he was looking better as the season went on and had a big game in the fiesta bowl. Edited August 22, 20187 yr by Viper

Asked him why he retired when it looked like he had at least a couple more good years in him.. I was just being nice. He says Chris Ogbonnaya laid a hit on him that convinced him it was just about time to call it quits. I was wearing my Texas hat.
August 22, 20187 yr Boyd was a completely different player the second half of last season. He was fantastic. Teams stopped testing him altogether. If he maintains that trajectory, I expect him to do well in the draft. His size and athleticism are rare. He’s extremely physical, and he seems to have developed the attitude you love in a corner. I’m excited to watch him this year.

I’m excited to watch him this year. I think it was right after they installed some sort of camera on his helmet so they could address what he was seeing or not seeing (iirc, there was an article about that).Then suddenly things started to click for him. If so, what a tremendous, forward-thinking coaching job by these guys.
