    Only if a person who has contracted every STD known to man, and that has inflatable breasts to get out of speeding tickets would be considered deluded.

    Is this seriously a thing? Is it really an issue of "not knowing how to win?" It seems that is a very fluffy way to put it to make it seem like it's an easier solution than needing guys to be more talented than they are. Throw the ball to the hands or a receiver, block the guy in front of you, brake the first tackle etc.

    I've never played sports on that high a level though so maybe I just don't understand?

    I haven't played sports on a very high level either, but I think it's just coach-speak.

    I am not sure if I want to watch the game between UT and OU, it could be a not fight game at all. I just can not image UT is so bad right now with lots of money in the program. The longhorn network in ESPN likely is less popular after each game. Too bad, I had a high hope for new change because Brown can not coach the game well, but so far the result is not good. We have to see the result next year.

    No that sounds like the students these days at UT. That was the emptiest section at the start of the 4th quarter of the last game.

    It seems like the "Come Early, Stay Late" campaign is over. There's just an attitude of it's not what you can do for the program, it's what they can do for you." Just makes the program look bad.

    You may not get my point. Just because I am a former UT person, I do not want to see another embarrassing loss for UT on the TV.

    (Not trying to attack) But what is the point of following a team and being a fan? You live or die win or loss? It seems a bit bandwagon to only want to watch when they are winning. (not trying to attack).

    Well, still follow the team, that is why I am here, but I do not want to break my big screen TV by watching a bad team with another bad loss. A loss is ok, but not a big loss for OU. I know this from the Brown team, I can not take it anymore.

    I'm not getting the sense that you're the type of fan to break your TV over a loss...

    UT: 10
    OU: 38

    How badly would it piss off OU fans if they lost in upset fashion 2 years in a row? Sigh...

    SMH, Through 1 quarter Texas looks like the better team that is just doing every stupid thing that can possibly be done.

    3 False starts, and unbelievably a delay of game after a penalty.

    Allowing a punt to go over the head and roll 20 yards.

    Kick Return TD

    Grabbing the jersey, after the runner was already by him.

    I mean good god

    Another bone-headed penalty. UT looks uncoached and out of control.
