Cold beer

Celebratory Blantons here. Come on down

Arch scrambling reminds me of Fran Tarkenton.

You must be old. I am and I barely remember him.

 

[Earl Nobis Jefferson]

Helluva drive by the backups!

It really was. Sark didn't hold back either. Some great young talent in there.

LOL, I'm old, but not that old. Fran played from '61 to '78. He was well-known for being able to scramble, a skill not that common back in the day.

Unfortunately, even with a W over the Pokes or ousux, we still come out with a less impressive win than the teams were competing with for that final spot in the CFP (assuming Bama over UGA, and Oregon over Wash - or vice versa). Just cold hard facts man.

Your logic is flawed. If you were talking Oregon beating Georgia than yea but where it fails is we beat Bama head to head in Bryant Denny by double digits. Who’s gives a flip whether they beat Georgia as more impressive than osu or the spooners. We beat bamas ass head to head so instead of comparing who has the more impressive win. It does not matter. We beat bama period

 

[TexCoyote]

Anthony Hill is better than we even thought he was going to be. And we thought he was going to be pretty good. Simmons coming next year, man this is going to be a good defense

 

[DMAC]

My point is bama and Texas are both one loss teams right now. Their loss was to us so just like in conference championship games head to head is the difference. We stay ahead of bama. If they jump us it’s a farce

Yea, he had that dumb taunting penalty early but after that he was nails!

Putting alot of faith in the committee, even with their history of inconsistency. Time will tell. Let's just hope it doesn't come to that.

 

[DMAC]

I will say tech only lost to Oregon by 8 but we just spanked em. Just saying we deserve to be ahead of bama and should be ahead Oregon

 

[tejasrulz]

What are the chances Yormark is still in the house?

 

[Austin Horn]

time to win the big 12 now!!!

 

[DMAC]

 

[Hiwood]

we finally saw all gas no brakes and it looked real good

 

[BWilk55]

I love how this staff isn't afraid to ruffle some feathers along the way. The players and coaches have been all class pre-game but let some bullets fly during and after the game. This is not a team that you want to make upset before you play them

 

[Eastexhorn]

Weird stat of the game? The Texas defense gave up more yards rushing than passing. Who would have thought that!

TTHad one fine RB. Have not seen that kind of effort since Forman.

 

[Eastexhorn]

To all the what if's , should bes, etc, If Horns had beat ou none of this would been happening.

Defense played a great game.

Very true and if Alabama had beaten Texas, no one would be having this conversation. But both things happened. The win at Bama changed the narrative of who this team is becoming. Many expected a 10-2 season but this team did better than that despite the flaws. They are learning how to be a dominant team. 1 more win and this season will be a huge success and step forward. Regardless of what the committee does who is as questionable as the NCAA and as confusing as the Big 12.

Yes tech rb is a beast. Just think if he had an oline

 

[Sunkist]

Need to fix the damn red zone issues. Otherwise amazing game. Hook ‘em! We’ve won 11 games!!! And likely win more!
