Ehlingher should have been called for targeting on that play. He clearly targeted the defenseless defender there.

The guy is a beast. Let's just hope the screws stay tight enough up top, after he runs guys over, that he's not seeing double and throwing games away.

There isn't a lot of plays you can call when you have the worst OL in college football. Literally, I would have traded straight up for the entire
Sam Houston OL for UT's if that was even a thing. I like Sam but Beuchelle will leave next year and go become a great college QB somewhere else. Then go to the pros and be great there. UT will wonder what happened when he leads another team to a 12 win season. He is a much better passer.

No, no he won�t.

Beuchelle is the better passer, but the OL is still terrible; therefore, I think huggy-boy had to go with Sam -- in hopes that his legs and "thickness" will keep him from getting injured.

I like having two competent QBs to choose from on a given Saturday.

Word.


I think Sam is probably the right choice to start. Supposedly his passing has gotten a lot better. Fingers crossed. Sept 1 cant come soon enough!

I think its time to guess the final score for the first game, what ya'll got? 44-10 UT

well time will tell. He was a highly rated QB in HS and has played pretty well for a freshman while running for his life on every play. If he transferred today he would have a lot of places that would be glad to have him. The only reason he isn't starting is because Sam is a better fit. LSU?

He made a lot of costly mistakes last year that cost UT at least three games and yes he was a freshmen but there were a lot of good freshmen quarterbacks last year. They are going to go 7 and 6 or 8 and 5 at the best.

not having a below avg kicker cost them games. Hopefully that is fixed this year

If he was good enough to start at another top P5 school he�d be starting at UT.

I agree with JayC41.
soggybottom, Boo wasn't running for his life as a freshman but he was last year as a sophomore.

I went to several of those games his freshman year and yes they sucked. Couldn't block anyone. Didn't play much last year. He is good enough to start another school, he just doesn't fit Hermans system. I was surprised he stayed.
Buechele passed Colt McCoy for most passing yards by a freshman in school history. Buechele finished his freshman season with 2,958 passing yards, 21 passing touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.[11]
You will see when he transfers.

Jake Fromm, freshman QB for Georgia, led the team to the SEC championship and the CFP Championship game

The leap from high school to college for good QBs is not that big of a deal
