What is something, score aside, that you would be very happy (The Good) if it happened against Texas, disappointed but not that mad (The Bad) against Texas, and something that would be completely disheartening (The Ugly) if it happened against Texas?


The Good (aka very happy)
I would be very happy if we either tie or win the turnover battle against Texas. This likely means no turnovers from us as Texas doesn't turn the ball over much. I would be happy with this because to me it would mean no "free points" for Texas.


The Bad (aka disappointed)
I would be disappointed, but not surprised, if we gave up more than 3 sacks in this game. UT is averaging 3 per game (15th in the nation), so they can bring some pressure, and being that we will possibly be playing some young guys on the OL again it wouldn't be surprising...but I hope we don't see Willis on his back that often this game


The Ugly (completely disheartening)
I would be pretty upset if we allow more than 300 yards passing against UT. Now UT is capable of this, but they are currently 122nd in the nation in passing yards per game averaging 134 yards passing per game. We have been getting torched in the passing game this year (2nd to last in passing yards allowed per game in the nation), but this is an opportunity for the guys on D to step up here. If they allow UT to pass all over us, I will be pretty disappointed...
