    Bad game thus far.

    Frankly, OU is the better team right now, and I expect them to show it on Saturday.

    a 3rd and 15 swing pass/screen from the 5 yard line got you muschamp? are you kidding me. all we're trying to do is get the ball back, not a safety. way to screw it up. thank goodness earl thomas is ridiculously fast or that's 7.

    and way to be a moron and kick the fg sherman. like we were gonna stop the 4th down play.

    yeah, ou is way better. the way we were only able to beat kansas by 28 when they whooped them by a whole 14 about 3 weeks earlier. man, they're so good. or do the weeks ou doesn't look amazing not count in this season? like maybe the week we beat them.

    Did the clock even run that play?

    Edit: ESPN fixed it.

    Texas knows they have something to prove to America tonight. They're not convincing anybody they deserve to be in the BCS championship game. My guess is that they'll lose votes after letting the Aggies hang with them the entire first half....in Austin.

    Colt McCoy on the move is ridiculous.

    What game are you watching? The Longhorns have moved down the field at will. ATM has a 1 great play and a lot of other nothing.

    ATM has -6 yards rushing and they have 2 first downs.
    Texas has 16 first downs, 260 total yards, 18 for 21 passing

    The game is on pace to finish 42-3. You are delusional.

    We'll see how OU does in their rivalry game. If OU obliterates OSU in Stillwater, I think they have a good argument for being the better team on November 30th.

    OU put 66 on A&M in College Station. I don't think UT gets over 50.

    Hey, I want UT in the BCS title game more than anyone, but I really think OU is playing at a higher level than we are right now. They DEMOLISHED a hyped up Tech that beat us and ran train on OSU the week earlier.

    Our best shot is BU pulling some **** out of their ass and beating Tech somehow.

    OU also gave up 28 points to A&M, does that not matter? Other than one play, the A&M offense has done absolutely nothing against UT's defense.

    I actually have to work today so I can't see the game. Quick question, how has UT's defense looked? I know they have only 3 points, but has A&M been able to move the ball at all? I figure that might play into the voting as well.

    they also let a&m score 28. or is defense not part of playing football anymore (i know what the answer is in the pollsters mind: NO).

    if you need a team to put up 60 on a weakling, i would certainly turn to OU before Texas. they're a big play offense and they are also a hurry up offense. we're a methodical offense that still puts up well over 40 ppg. that didn't seem to matter when the two teams actually played each other. apparently pretty performances against everyone else matter more to the pollsters.

    a&m had 3 3-and-outs in a row and -1 yards of offense until 3rd and 15 from the 5 we stupidly gave up a 54 yard swing pass. then they kicked a field goal. i think those are their only 4 drives, so they've basically had one play account for about 80% of their yards.

    aTm had one fluke play with Goodson took it about 50 something yards on 3rd and long...

    aTm was driving for a TD but was held for a FG

    thats really about all aTm has done.

    No, other than the Goodson screen, A&M has 19 yards of offense.

    i know this is how everyone thinks, but i don't get it. doesn't the rest of the season matter? or just november? i bet several teams are playing better than alabama right now. but they lost games and haven't been as impressive over the whole season. shouldn't OU have to look better in october as well? it sure seems convenient that we always stayed behind them in the rankings in past seasons when we were playing better at the end, but now that we've beaten them, october is irrelevant.

    Hmm... Apparently y'all expect a UT player to eat one of TAMU's coaches without cooking him first in order to be impressed.

    Leading 21-3 at halftime and giving up -6 rushing yards is not convincing? :confused:
