JK:On offense I want to see how the reshuffled offensive line does against the Iowa State front seven.Taylor Doylehas moved from tackle to center to provide more size in the middle. Texas was getting pushed around up front. Against Oklahoma, the line did a better job of opening up holes for the running backs and providing a clean pocket for Swoopes.

I’m also curious to see howSam B. Richardsondoes against the Texas defensive front seven. This group shut downBryce PettyandTrevor Knightby disrupting the offense’s rhythm. I think Richardson will have to throw the ball to beat Texas, and that will play into the strength of this defense.Cedric ReedandMalcom Brownhave lived in the opponent’s backfield all season.
