Will Orakpo line up across Boone though? Aaron Maybin mostly played across from Browning and well you know how that turned out.

To me this game is more on Boone to prove himself more than any other senior. Animal has played big, so has Malcolm Thorpe. But, Boone to me should have taken a way bigger leadership role than he did in his career. Especially with the expectations of him coming in.

What about our D? If we sit back in zone and wait around, McCoy will surely shred us to pieces. It will be on them to get turnovers by forcing McCoy into mistakes.

With all the coordinators getting jobs around the country, why isn’t anyone beating down the door for Heacock and Bollman?? Oh yeah, its because they SUCK!!!

I’m not one that thinks Pryor is God, or that his feet will save us always, but I’m not so worried about 1 D-lineman getting pressure with Pryor in there. I mean if 3 or 4 guys are in the backfield every snap, then yeah that’s a problem. I’m not saying he’s the same as Vick or at this point Vince Young, but when things broke down, that’s when those guys were at their best. Get Pryor on the move some. He’ll get his yards on the ground, but it’s the buying time and being on the move that often leads to huge plays down field.

I’m very interested to see if one of the young receivers or Small, you know the receivers with some good speed, actually have a break out game in this bowl. It seems like, except for the last 2 years, there’s always been a player have a break out game in a bowl. Or like Gamble against K-State, you look and say damn, we’re going to miss that guy. That could be Beanie. At any rate, I’m not so worried about the O-Line getting destroyed. I just don’t think it’ll happen.

Orakpo-Boone should be even, regardless of Boone’s past struggles with quicker D-linemen. That match-up might determine the game, actually.

I’m a UT fan. I really look forward to this game. How’s yall’s left tackle? The best matchup of the game will be our all-world DE vs whatever 6-foot-8, 350-pound, 5-star, all-conference behemoth you guys trot out there.

Kstatefootball is the most obvious non-kstate fan ever…or real…either way, a total waste of space. I would say just kill yourself but your “it’s not rape, it’s surprise sex” comeback for Ell Raperson is clever and I will not suggest suicide, just deep and throrough evaluation of time management.

iball and Brian:

That Congressman from Texas is a Texas A&M grad. have no idea why he’s miffed, it’s not like he or his constituents care terribly about UT.

BTW, since when does K-staters troll OSU blogs? How did this happen? Is there some sort of rivalry that I never heard of?
