Shooting From the Hip - Texas 42, Rice 28

I'm Shooting From the iPhone after catching this one in DKR and doing my part to support our in-stadium alcohol sales, so apologies if this is a tad bit disjointed.

OFFENSE

The Norvell/Heard/Traylor offense started out ugly, ugly...beeeayuuuutiful as a couple of stuffed runs were followed by Heard hitting the jets and announcing that this dual threat was actually bringing some threat with him.

It was gratifying to see us let Heard air it out early, and he cashed in quick with a TD to Armanti Foreman. It helped that the corner's play on the ball looked like he was acting out a Charades clue for "Halt and Catch Fire," but "throw it up against one on one coverage and see what happens" is basically a modern offensive axiom and Armanti made it pay off.
