User blog:Void Samukai/Yamato Vs USS Texas (1944): Now this is getting ridiculous!!!

Do you guys remember the thread I made a long time ago about whether a fight between Bismarck and Yamato would be fair or not (and we agreed that it would definately will not be a fair fight unless the environment was the Atlantic, then Bismarck has some sort of fighting chance). Well, there is a new challenger to take Yamato's throne as Queen of the Battleships (Tirpitz claims king of the battleships as he was one of the few BBs referred to as he XD).

The setting is 1944, in some ocean. The Yamato is out in sea, when a challenger is reported to her. This new challenger is part of the US Fleet. She is one of the USS' most famous warships. She is the mightly, the powerful, the intimidating...

...USS Texas BB-35???

Okay, what weed was the guy who thought this matchup was fair smoked?! Can anyone tell me how in all of naval history the USS Texas could stand a chance against the Japanese behemoth. And by USS Texas, Im not referring to the missile cruiser, or the submarine. Im referring to the WW1 era dreadnought USS Texas.

And this is when both battleships are solo. No escorts, no backup, no support. Only the ships, the crew, the commander and whatever they had on their ships. So no US Bomber formations. No mass fleet of destroyers. No LL torps being thrown. Just the Yamato vs USS Texas.

Is there anything the USS Texas had in 1944 that could give it a chance against the Yamato. Bismarck was a far fetch, but this matchup...it is like...urgh! I'll let you guys discuss this matter down in the comoment section below.

Standard blog rules apply here. No need to list them all down. I hope.
