Therefore, I'm thinking we'll come out in a base defense, so we can force them into passing situations by (hopefully) stopping their running attack.
As for the starters, I'd like to see: Freeman, Homan, Laurinaitis
I'd also like to see more of Grant, he seemed to be around the football a lot yesterday.

im not convinved they will come out gunning, but i really do expect texas to start from a 3 or 4 wide look. just a hunch. i really do think well see a lot of 3 wides, from what i saw saturday id guess mack and his staff will make players tackle in space early and often.
