Ten Against the Spread – Week 3
I was over .500 for the first "full" slate of games, including 3-0 when picking underdogs. Strange (but actually normal) things in Lawrence and Army covering? What did I tell ya?

Saturday was a good day for first impressions
Plenty of offseason attention on the Longhorns went to fourth-year quarterback Sam Ehlinger, fourth-year offensive linemen Sam Cosmi and Derek Kerstetter, and fourth-year head coach Tom Herman.

2020 UTEP Post-Mortem: Offense
That was really fun, even factoring in my many disclaimers about about UTEP's quality. How badly Texas beat a bad team doesn't really matter. What mattered was how Texas did it. Over the last few years, this is the kind of team the Longhorns would have screwed around with for three quarters before wearing them down and pulling away late 42-17. It would have been 14-10 or some bull**** in the mid-2nd quarter until an Ehlinger 2:00 minute drill made it 21-10 going into the half.
