    That was pathetic but I still think UT beats WVU next week.

    Smith is scary. He will score lots of points but Texas should be able to stop on a few drives. However, WV's defense can't stop anyone. I think Texas should win next week just because Texas is playing at home.

    I have a Charity event I have to attend next Saturday evening. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.

    We all know the Big 12 has athletes. We also know that the Big 12 has defenses that are comparable to Memorial High School.

    yeah nobody likes memorial. Andrew had fun against some of those defenses until his senior year when he had a bum ankle

    Looked pretty sloppy last night. Hopefully Bama fixes everything during their bye week.

    on another note I was surprised that this thread was 14 pages long and then I read through it. I'm not even going to waste my time. Just remember, Texas had that number 1 ranked rushing defense in 2009 and Ingram and Richardson both ran for over 100 yards.

    Remember Texas was only 3 points behind until late into the game with probably the worst 5 star freshman QB ever to play.

    and here we go again. I've argued this game so much on this board so I'm tired of getting into it.

    Any unbiased fan saw that Texas clearly would have won with Colt.

    ATM deserves to be ranked. They barely lost to Florida and killed everyone else.

    An FCS team and two other garbage teams makes them deserve to be ranked?

    The fact they're beating them by 50 points does. I know their schedule is no lineup of Wyoming, Ole Miss, and New Mexico, but still.

    I agree. Haven't played a true road game yet either. If they take care of business on the road against Old Miss and La St., then I would say they deserve a ranking. And it is not like being ranking #21-25 matters that much compared to being just outside the Top 25 at this point of season due to the high turnover.
