Did I miss the thread about the Texas game?
No comments?
I didn' t get to watch the game but from what I heard it was pretty ugly? Anyone see it?

lot's of shit to work on, not super surprised our o-line will be an issue all year, interior is brand new and I think we have one upperclassman starting. having 3 potential starters on the bench for the next 2 games does not bode well for us either. Colt needs to settle down a bit, 2 td, 224 yards, and 2int's last night. Jamal Charles was OK at best. averaged a touch over 4 yards per carry with one TD. I think he went for 100+ but not sure. secondary will absolutely kill us this year. other than that our kicking game looked good....

Texas is another team that's coming off a bad ending to last year and it seems to have carried over to this year..

Cassells - agreed, more like a 7,8,9 team. maybe lower All I know is that this has been the worst off season in Austin in 10 fuck'in years and if Mack doesn't get his shit together and get control of this team we are all in for a world of hurt. Not sure if it is carry over form last year or not but TCU will define this team IMO.

They looked awful. Not just bad...but awful. If that other team, Bus Stop State, could have a DB catch a pass....It would have been a 14 point loss for Texas. Hell, even Louisvilles DB's woulda managed to catch a couple.

I am still trying to figure out how texas was voted 4th to start the year when they didn't impress at all last year. I was wondering the exact same thing. Here was a team that looked pretty beatable at season's end last year. They had a suspect secondary, lost some key d-backs to the NFL, and they have them at #4? I didn't get it. I still don't.

Like I said, I didn' t get to see them, and you can't always make a judgement based on the highlight reel.

I have been saying the same thing all pre-season. Texas is in for a down year. They were not head and shoulders above the other teams in the big 12 last year, Texas lost some key talent in an already vulnerable secondary, the other teams in the Big 12 have improved, and the praises of Colt McCoy are one or two years pre-mature. Texas will be a good team by the end of the year, but they should not be in the top 10 right now.

Maybe Mack should stop recruiting with a police scanner.

Maybe Mack should stop recruiting with a police scanner. I think it's the other way around....if he started using a scanner, he might have avoided some of the problems

again, I don't even know why it matters since it's has nothing to do with this thread, but OSU was supposed to be there and OU was not.
just an observation......

I believe Tay-has was ranked #4 b/c of the assumed lack of capable challengers in the Big 12 to match their talent and b/c their schedule is by and large...fairly easy and conducive to a deceptive 11-1 type of season. That's the trouble with rankings...a lotta times if you're smart about where you HONESTLY think teams will be @ the end of the season, not necessarily how good you think they are...the schedule is the first best place to look. A good team with a D cup breast soft skeddy will end up ranked ahead of an excellent team that looks like it's playing the AFC Central.
