It’s gonna be real annoying for the rest of this month because everyone will say that Texas doesn’t belong in the CG and predict that Alabama is going to mudstomp the good guys. Who can blame them? I’m gonna have to swear off talk radio for the rest of the year.
Damn right a wins a win we’re going to the National Championship……but why do i not feel good about this win at all? Another case of playing to our opponents level? Damn! I’m not as happy as I should be right now!
Holy crap, everybody calm down! Hookah is so right, ‘bama can shit the bed with the best of them, just like us. OH and by the way they don’t have Suh making us miserable.
Relax, people. The better team will win. And if not, we’ll cheat.
i’m definitely not at all impressed with bama’s o, so i’m not too worried about our chances of winning. for now, let’s just relax and celebrate our championship.
Bama will gain about 50-100 on the ground and 100-150 in the air if our D shows up. Their offense, defense, and special teams add up to 14-17 points, max. Like ATM, Bama is a Jekyll and Hyde team. Like ATM, we have to assume that they will bring their A-game to Pasadena. Like tonight, however, our D will show up and rise to the challenge.
Colt needs to channel VY and just ignore whatever bullsh*t gameplan GD comes up with. I am GD, so I am a schizophrenic and a hopeless cause, but the Nebraska game made me realize that our O-line cannot handle a solid D-line without help. What about running the ball in the first quarter to keep their D off-balance? What about assuming that Bama will get into the backfield on spread sets and designing plays or protections to nullify their penetration? What about taking reasonable shots downfield? We can’t force our WRs to catch the balls thrown their way, but I’m bullish on this team so long as I keep myself out of the way.
We saved the hurry-up offense for the MNC. Mt. Cody will not be taught how to keep up with a fast-paced offense that probably could have tired out Suh faster than wind sprints uphill both ways.
You’d think that this abortion of a game by our offense would FORCE Mack to beat Davis and MacWhorter with a bamboo cane and make them actually coach our kids up and pull their heads out of their asses when it comes to play calling.
Yeah, I’ve talked to him about that mudhole shit. It’s pretty incredible how poor his predictions are despite all of the compelling arguments and anti-opponent rhetoric. Although you have to admit, his ability to denigrate OU and their fanbase regardless of the opponent or topic is funny.
We are actually two seconds from 26-0 or 24-2. At least we still haven’t played our best game yet this year. We’ll need it in Pasadena. For those throwing F bombs at TCU fans, please go back to what we were all saying about OU and the BCS system last year. On any day, there are five or six teams this year that could beat each other on any given day. BCS sucks, but it benefits us this year. Just repayment for last year as far as I am concerned. Hope the Frogs win their bowl game as well.
Yeah, I always thought Mack was a good game manager but boy was I fucking wrong. Hell, look at the tech game where no one was telling colt to slow the fuck down on that last drive. Shits gonna catch up to us eventually, let’s just hope we have some good juju for 1 more game this year.
Has anyone seen any explanation of that retardation at the end of the game? What the hell was Colt thinking? What the hell were Mack and Davis thinking? I’ve seen GD get outcoached many, many times. But I haven’t seen the entire coaching staff look so clueless ever before. We lost every single aspect of that game except the one on the board and our defense against their horrendous offense. We got killed on special teams and completely out-schemed.
I get it and will drink the Kool-Aid. It may not even matter, as Bama got to play Florida’s defense without it’s two best players, which means there is no guarantee Bama’s offense is as good as it lookd at times today. But it should be noted that if we come out with a bunch of offensive linemen who sit down to pee, we do not get the ball to Malcom Williams early, we continue to pass it to Buckner on the outside and Kirkendoll ever, we keep running slow developing running plays against a D-line that is in our backfield, we continue to be unable to cover kick-offs, and we continue to call plays with such predictability that half the bar can shout out our next play (this literally was happening last night where I was) then it will take a transcendent night out of Colt like VY’s in Pasadena (and as much as I like Colt, he ain’t even close to VY) for us to beat Bama. Here’s hoping we get that!
Inexplicable clock management at the end which, fortunately, did not kill the dream.
Nebraska’s D was the perfect construction to rip our offense apart. Even then, some simple dropped passes hurt us almost as much as Suh did. Speaking of…
Heisman is a stupid joke. Suh deserves the damn thing but doesn’t have a prayer of winning it. Speaking of…
A win is a win is a win.

does the state not produce any kickers who can get it into the endzone? anyone else notice the 15 yd difference in kickoff distance between our kickers? awful. and if i see one more damn rugby punt right into the teeth of the rush….run away from it!
The mudhole handwringing from you guys shames us all. We can go ahead and chalk the mudholes up this year as 2-0. I think I am like 18-3 lifetime and 2-19 against the spread. It almost a situation now where if there is no mudhole for the next game, we’ll be jinxing things.
I don’t know where else to post this, but: Craig Way’s call of that final field goal is awesome. I love how excited and into the games he gets. I also heard the Longhorn Spanish language station call of that play, and though I didn’t understand a word, the emotion there was great as well.
Is the play clock/game clock in an unusual position at Jerry World? It seems like early in the year a visiting pro qb, Eli, was confused by the positioning of the two clocks. I wasn’t at the game, so what do you think?
Outside of that, I would think 9 sacks might have affected Colt’s judgement + numerous knock downs. I’m just glad we won and no one is injured.
Java: yeah, its a little weird. I was at the game last night. Even harder to find was the damn down and distance on the scoreboard. I realize it is less important than the clock, but it was hidden.
VY to be on CBS’s NFL Pregame in a few minutes. They already named Colt the #1 senior QB coming out… but say he’s a late 1st round to early second round pick. Pretty much the anti-Simms.
Just wrapped up 10 minutes of reading articles where the refs did rig the game and how TX has no right to be there. None of them mention this about the Tenn/ Ark/ LSU games against Bama/ Fla. Ridiculous. So much hate for the best school/ people/ place/ women in the world. I don’t get why others hate us
@WWGDD: Yes, there does seem to be some kind of campaign (for lack of a better word) at the WWL to make a case for Texas not being in the title game. The articles that I’ve read is that it’s coming down to perception with the voters, and that Texas could end up being out at the end of the year.
Mack was definitley calling timeout before the last play. He was right next to the ref. and I have no idea why they didn’t honor it. That said Colt needs to be smarter.
True about down and disctance. The only place they had it was on the jumbotron and there were only like 4 game clocks in thw whole place. Bad bathroom lines too…
“Seconds from being 26 – 0….On to Pasadena to settle this.”
And exactly one second from being 24-2 and on your way to Glendale to settle the question who’s the best team in Texas. Believe me, Taylor, I smell what you’re stepping in. Texas is easily one of the best teams in the country over the last two years, and you’re the definitive top dog in the Big 12 right now. Just spare us this “seconds away” bullshit.

About time we are Big 12 champs again. Good job Mack you still need at least 5 more. It better not be 5 years in between conference champs.
All I have to say is thank God for Zac Lee.
Here is why we stomp a mudhole in ‘Bama.
You can’t run on Texas unless you have a black quarterback. If Ingram gains 50 yards on us I will drink my own piss.
Julio Jones can catch footballs about as well as the Pope can catch herpes.
Mt. Cody is no where near as good as Suh and he will be exhausted by the first quarter.
McCleroy is a slightly better version of Zac Lee. Not remotely worried.
We are fucking Texas and they are not.
