Texas Poised to Unravel Vanderbilt’s Hard-Earned Success—What’s Really at Stake?
Coming into this year, Texas was anything but under the radar. They were, apparently, overhyped. The team came in as one of the top teams in the nation and instantly lost on the road to Ohio State. Was that a big surprise? Not really, but the offense that was being raved about did basically nothing against the Buckeyes. They rebounded and put up a bunch of points against three average teams. Then they went on the road and had to face Florida. They lost that game 29-21. Since that point, we’ve seen them take down Oklahoma at a “neutral” location – which wasn’t all that neutral as it was in Dallas. They also went on the road and beat Kentucky and Mississippi State, both games needing overtime. I’m a bit concerned about this team not being able to pull away from good competition. They still have to face Georgia next week, and then Texas A&M the final week of the season, but they cannot afford to look ahead. They need to win all of these games in order to make the College Football Playoffs.
