Man, what a messy game and anxiety-producing finish, but in the end, my team is going to play for a national championship this year! WOOOO-HOOOOOO!!! (Sorry, game was late and my daughter was asleep, so I have no one else to party with. Well, except for a few SFNOs, but they're not very vocal). I'm very proud of these Longhorns. They deserve it. -G
 
I believe Nebraska gave Alabama a pretty good blueprint for beating Texas.
It's called DEFENSE, something Texas hasn't faced much apparently. :p :D

ROLL TIDE!!!
 
YEP!!! Go HORNS

Nebraska gave the Longhorns that game on a silver platter. I'm not saying they couldn't have done it on the last drive on their own but they didn't have to because Nebraska was stupid and careless. Much respect to Texas' kicker though. Nice field goal.

I could be wrong but I think Alabama is going to give Texas a taste of what SEC football is like.
 
TX won't even be able to give Bama a good game:thumbdn:

They should let TCU, Cincy or Boise St play AL! One of those would at least have a slight chance.





edit- just messing with ya about TX not being able to give Bama a game. Anything can happen in college ball, esp when both have a great D and talented offensive players. I do give Bama the edge though and think TCU and Boise St would have a better chance of beating Bama.
We need a 4 team playoff!

Weird game. I'd just as soon Texas lost and someone else stepped up to the title game. Besides, if they lost, you might have still seen Texas vs Florida in a bowl game.

But... it's better to be lucky than good.

I wonder if Colt McCoy lost the Heisman Trophy with that performance.

I agree Nebraska gave that game away in the last 1:33 with that out of bounds kick and horseshoe collar penalty. NU out played UT, but lost it with carelessness in the end. Bama is going to stomp UT and it probably won't even be a good game. I couldn't see Colt McKoy even having a chance for the Heisman after last nights game.
 
Yeah, I think Colt lost the Heisman last night. It was his to win after the Florida game, now it probably goes to Ingram. Texas will play Bama well. Mack knows how to get his team ready for Bowl games. They've won 7 of the last 8 going back to 2002, including all 5 of the last 5. Texas didn't play well last night. If they play well, they can beat Bama. They have all the weapons to do it: Outstanding defense (some say #1 in the country) with a top notch D-coordinator, a smart, experienced quarterback, speed at WR and runningback, and good offensive adjustments as the game goes on. Their weakness is their O line, which was obviously on display last night. Last night's game was like the Oklahoma game, another very good defensive team with a dominant D line. Both were very low scoring, but ultimately UTs offense was better. That was true last night as well. Even though we didn't play well, we had the better offense. They had a better defense, but our was plenty good enough to contain them.

Nick Saban has lost 3 of his last 5 bowl games going back to 2002. He's got a great team this year and he's a good coach, but don'r underestimate Texas in the postseason.

Things are good, Jason. We've been taking the little one to one of those indoor bouncy places and she likes it alot better than home. Hope your little one and wifey are all doing well.
 
Yea I'll root for TX, but BAMA is hungry and there out for Longhorn blood I think. BAMA is good and I rooted for them yesterday. Gotta admit Saban has lite a fire under those lads. The backfield is HOT and the Big "D" is tough. Truly I like both going into it, but being I greaduated HS in Austin and my family went to UT, well it is what it is.
 
Give the huskers credit for some great D (Sun is an absolute BEAST!)... but that was the worst game Colt has played all year. It's a shame too... with all the heisman voters watching.

It should be a great game btw Texas and Bama. I'm really looking forward to that one! College football is great!!!
