We have a lot in common: we love orange, our QBs have played against each other, and we both lost to UGA (one of us lost TWICE
We have similar offensive/special teams ratings. Texas has a big advantage on the defensive side.
HOW WE WIN:
- Turnover free offense - Aggressive pressure / stops on the run game / quarterback - Big performances by our RB(s) - Drives that end in 7 points - 4 quarters of aggression from the offense - Made tackles by the defense
As the great Nick Saban once said: Players over Plays. I'd much rather have CK2 vs Ewers on Saturday.
If I'm SARK, I'm going to use a lot of window dressing to get 4 ypc on the ground in the first half.
In the second half, I am going adding in a ton of passes to pick apart the Tiger's secondary.
I'm mixing in Arch to keep the Tigers honest.
I'm trusting in my defense to keep the Tigers out of the endzone.
Remember, Texas has EVERYTHING to lose here. Many people think they're going to win it all. They've been given a heavy dose of rat poisoning (see spread -11.5) which... might just backfire
