And the reason for the question...

…is because for the first 3 years after the lockout, they played 32 Divisional games (8 games against each other with 4 home games and 4 away).

The downside is they only played games against 2 of the 3 Eastern Conference divisions. With less games within the division, they can at least face every Eastern Division team at least once.

I'd argue Turco's point

But just like how Nebraska did themselves in by basically giving Texas 55 yards of field position because of penalties, I think the Stars lack of defending on that play outweighs any point in arguing.

My jaw hit the floor

When I saw those QB draws that did nothing but push the ball from the 26 to the 29. Then when I saw the roll out, the pass, and looked up and there were double 00’s?

I know Colt would have taken the blame on that play, but that was all Greg Davis.

I fear for you guys that if Alabama starts dominating on defense, Davis won’t have a plan B.

Kind of like how Kevin Wilson never has a plan B at OU in big games.

I'll say this much

Texas is going to have to be able to run the ball and convert some third downs to get Colt into a rhythm. OU and Nebraska’s defenses had success against them because they blanketed Jordan Shipley, who is Colt’s roommate in case you weren’t aware. :o)

Tre’ Newton might turn into a nice back like he was at Southlake. Fozzy Whitaker might too, some day. But those two are going to have to step it up against Alabama.
