I'm not going to call it a deep dive or anything, but I watched enough of Texas to get a feel for them and picked out a few clips on both sides of the ball. The only game I watched in its entirety was the SEC Championship game. I am including clips from the Florida and Mississippi State games simply because Mississippi State looks like us formationally and Florida is the last team they scored a ton of points on. This is more focused on scheme. I did not do much with personnel other than a few things I noticed.
Texas Offense
Texas is based out of 12 personnel (1 back/2 TEs). They are a HEAVY motion team and will get funky with their formations. They have a shift or motion on almost every single play. They run a lot of RPOs and play action and are very good at it. The constantly force the defense to communicate on the fly (something we have struggled with), create conflicts in underneath coverage, and push the ball down the field with play action. They do not run a ton of plays, but they dress up the few they run very well. All that being said, I don't think their trust their OL right now. They REALLY struggle to protect in traditional drop back situations. More often than not, they are max protecting their play action stuff...which means they are only getting 2-3 WR out. They depend on a strong running game to make their passing game work.
Ewers did not look healthy in the Georgia game. He seems to have lost some
