Texas Football: 5 reasons the Longhorns can blowout Oklahoma State

5. Oklahoma State’s corners are utterly outmatched

In terms of the most detrimental weak points for the Pokes this season, the secondary has to be at or near the top of the list. A pair of returning cornerbacks that were up and down last season were expected to take a step forward. However, Rodarius Williams and A.J. Green consistently got torched to start Big 12 play.

Oklahoma State could not stop Iowa State or Texas Tech this year which should leave some of the best Texas wide receivers with their mouths watering for this opportunity. Standout junior Texas football wide receivers Lil’Jordan Humphrey and Collin Johnson are complete matchup advantages over Green and Williams.

Texas gets to go up against a team that isn’t forcing much of anything in the turnover department and allows its opposing passing games to nearly 65 percent of the passing attempts. But yet, Oklahoma State has yet to toe-to-toe with a receiving duo quite like Humphrey and Johnson. Any one of those two receivers can go off at any one time.

The rest of the Oklahoma State secondary is very inexperienced and makes mistakes on a weekly basis. Two of the true freshmen that do have bright futures with the Pokes, but could get shredded by the Horns include Jarrick Bernard and Kolby Peel. We’ll see how healthy this secondary is for Oklahoma State, though, and it will largely determine how effective Humphrey and Johnson can be.
