    Feels extremely fortunate to be tied at the half. The defensive backs have had great coverage on all the big plays, they just didn't get their damn heads around to find the ball.

    Managed to watch the entire second half of the Rockets game during the commercial breaks. I knew there were a ton of commercials in football but damn. I expected it would take halftime to finish it, but I was done before the break even started.

    Need the D-Line to step up in the second half. Penix has it too easy right now.

    Why was the ball spotted at the 30?

    They called offsides on Texas on the kickoff.

    They're getting shredded by Penix.

    Sad thing is.. This year's secondary was a big improvement from the previous DB regime

    Safety play has been the defense’s Achilles heel all season long.

    There's a lot of game left, but Texas needs more pass rush and passing to win this.

    You can certainly tell who is a better coached team.

    The Lord and Savior, VY, gifted us a championship. Besides that, the horns have been thoroughly out coached as long as I've been alive. Unbelievable.

    Can't get a sack to save their lives.

    UW is the better team up and down.

    Best season in 14 years. There's no shame in losing now. Washington is a buzz saw and Penix deserves all of the praise coming his way. He played a perfect game and our secondary was, in fact, our Achilles heel.

    Let's recruit a stronger secondary and see what life is like in the SEC.

    I think this is a reasonable response.
