If they do, they will have 3+ losses heading into the game. Because that’s not what competent teams and coaches do. They will have UT periods during the spring camp. And fall camp and during the “no coaches allowed” summer workouts. They will also have UK, and UF periods. Because that’s what you do. You introduce the concepts rep them, then on game week you’re not just diving straight into the fire of “we’ve never seen this before but soak it up for 5 days because we got a game Saturday”. They will spend more time on UT because it’s the most Niche offense. But the UT staff would do the same thing if they were playing Navy this year and didn’t want to only look at defending the triple option on game week… because that’s how triple option teams pull upsets.They will literally prepare the entire season for the game against us.

I think that is their strategy, stay injury free with a no loss record, but we saw first hand that some of those cupcake schools know they won’t win, but will put whammies on you and injure a lot of your players for spiteThat’s certainly a schedule designed for a realopportunity at a third straight NC. Goodness.
Yes it does because you avoided injuries and got a guaranteed no loss season.. the only hard game was us, after we had already gotten repeatedly beat up, playing an exponentially harder scheduleWhen you go 15-0 and beat everyone during the Charmin season and beat everyone in the top 4, does it really matter?
