If I had Bobby Carpenter comming off of the edge for me then I would tempted to change my mind, but, unfortunatly i don't.

Well then, I suppose the only solution is to make sure that Bobby is in the national championship game to get after Leinart...

I do not have the confidence that i can consistantly get pressure without blitzing so I would rather drop and shift and stunt, I would like to see a defense confuse Lienart. That was one thing that the Texas D Line did very well against yall. The presnap shifts and stunts cause problems for your oline on more than one occasion. In Texas' case i think that is our best shot.

I tell ya what, if we aint playing in the rose. Maybe we could work out a trade with ya'll. We will lend ya Bobby for the rose, and VY sits out next Sept...

Just train Henry Melton to hit, he has the speed and the size.
If he needs a one-play tape on hitting show him Ahston giving up his body against Melton.

he would be there already except that mack told him that he would get his shot at running back, my guess is that as Charles continues to get better the chances of melton playing DE increase substantialy

I think besides us, Texas is the team best suited to knock off USC. Leinart is the trigger man for USC, and he usually gets enough time to watch an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm before getting off a pass to one of their many weapons. SCum's offensive line is good, but not great. Texas' front four of Wright, Dibbles, Crowder and Robison will introduce Leinart to the smell of grass, often. And the law firm of Griffin, Brown, and Huff will make sure Jarrett, Smith, and Co. aren't taking cute curl patterns, breaking weak tackles, and running up insane YAC into the end zone.
As for us, I think if our D-line can get any kind of push, we have enough overall firepower on defense to disrupt their offensive rhythm, if not stop them cold.

You need a great secondary to beat USC, as they have 3 great recievers. You need fast linebackers to keep Reggie Bush in check, and you need your front four to get pressure on Matt Leinhart. They have so many weapons on offense, its like pick your poison...
God dammit can someone beat the [censored] out of them sometime this decade? Lets go Pac-10!
