CAMEROON MAGAZINE - GM24/10/20204 Mins read98 Views

Kicking off mid-afternoon at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, is there a place you’d rather be in Austin? The Texas Longhorns and Baylor Bears will meet at 2:30 p.m. CDT This game could be a breaking point for Texas Or to play devil’s advocate it could be a turnaround for the Longhorns Texas enters on a two-game skid as Baylor has lost his last timeout

This is the Longhorns’ fifth game, in the middle of the season, it’s a must-have win for the burnt orange Baylor will play their third game after disrupting football activities for the third time this season Without having haven’t played a game since Oct 3 There’s no way the Longhorns will come out after a week off and lose to a team that’s been out for three weeks, right? Is not it?

Well, it would be a 2020 type game if it did. Will there be rust on the Baylor side? Did Texas resolve any of their issues during the week off? These questions will be answered on Saturday We have laid out six reasons why this game could go one way or the other

In the two losses this year, the attack was inconsistent despite a total of 38 points per game The team put a lot of pressure late in the game by not being more consistent For the Longhorns to win on Saturday the attack must return to the goal early and often

Ehlinger needs to be more consistent when throwing the ball across the field When he’s able to push the ball down the field Texas wins If they win, look at Ehlinger to be a big reason why

It feels like beating a dead horse when it comes to talking about defensive struggles The Longhorns have missed a total of 61 tackles this season in four games The defense can’t keep giving yards after a contact and win football matches this year

In loss, the defense gave up 312 yards after contact If Texas lose this game, it’s largely because Baylor is racking up yards after contact With some of the players they have on offense, this could be a death sentence for Texas

Running game in Texas is part of what made this team so successful Despite the fact that many teams are heavy, offense needs a running game The Longhorns lacked a consistent running game apart from quarterback Sam Ehlinger leading the team in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns

With Keaontay Ingram and Bijan Robinson likely carrying the load in this one, they must have their best game of the season If the Longhorns can take a quick lead and lead the game, it likely means a win for Texas

One of the problems with this team is the inconsistent game of the special teams unit Against the Sooners, that bit them again, so much so that former punter Michael Dickson called them Blocked kicks, missed goals, bad punts and the return game was not very often in favor of the Longhorns

Against Kansas, Treston Ebner had a career day taking two kickoffs for touchdowns If they can’t corral Ebner, special teams could very well cost Texas yet again

Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger has been one of the best passer in all of college football this season He’s on track to throw more than 3,000 yards and 40 touchdowns this year He leads the FBS in touchdowns this year If wide receivers can help their quarterback, Austin could be all smiles

Receivers aside from Joshua Moore have been extremely inconsistent If Brennan Eagles, Jake Smith and Tarik Black play bigger roles in this game, the Longhorns should win the game

Another problem for Texas this year has been the lack of constant pressure on opposing quarterbacks With injuries in high school this can be a death sentence on defense Especially when you combine that with the inconsistent tackle shown by the Longhorns on defense

If Brewer can get some offensive line protection it could mean a long day for Chris Ash’s unit They gave up 274 yards per game in the air during Big 12 play This is the third highest number of the conference, the eight touchdown passes are the second worst
