    Nice end of the half, Longhorns. They will lose this game.

    Wow, great game. Hope the 2nd half is just as good......Griffin for Heisman!

    (now that Hybl has dropped out of the Heisman race, that is;)

    How in the hell do you kneel on the ball at the 50 yard line with 5 seconds left? That was gutless.

    Sorry, my inner ZRB comes out when it comes to the Longhorns. Allowing the long return and the third down penalty is just lame.

    Griffin has REALLY impressed me and Hybl....well....Hyble has not impressed me. Were it not for those last touchdown and 2 point conversion throws, I would compare his arm to a plastic sack filled with vomit.

    i agreed 100% with what they said. I actually called it sitting here in my living room. Mack is scared to let chris get eaten up by the media if he throws 3 picks in the 1st half. :(

    If only OU could run against bad defenses too, we'd be set.....;)
    And is their 1st down-hand it off to griffin play not predictable??!!?You'd think we have Greg Davis as our coordinator:mad:

    I just don't understand. It's just a stat.....they at least HAVE a chance of scoring if they do that.....

    if you lived in Austin (i assume you don't), you'd understand. believe me... this kid gets ripped so badly after off games here, its not even funny. papers, tv, radio, everything.

    it was hilarious when the sideline commentator, while reporting from the OU/TX 50 yardline division in the stands, suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence. it was like he was suddenly swalloed by the massive throng of people! :D

    It's pathetic that they're babying Chris Simms like he's a freshman. Is he really that fragile? Geez...

    I agree... However, with Simms he really is THAT fragile mentally speaking. I thought UT would be able to establish the run better than they have, but their run play calling has been too predicatable.

    OU has the ball now, and I bet you Hybl throws another INT to a wide open UT defender.

    The spec teams play in this game has been awesome on both ends.

    Whoever makes the next mistake will lose. The last 2 years (including this year), this game is an NFL-style game, where teams don't win games, they just lose them.

    You get the feeling that each time Simms or Hybl goes back to pass the fans are just holding their breaths that the pass isn't intercepted for a touchdown. :D

    Hybl is the worst QB for a big-time program I've seen in a while.

    Does he know that defenses have safeties in coverage? Does he know that his WR's don't have man-to-man everytime???

    ****, OU just picked one off! This game is ridiculously great!

    TD! OU!!!

    OU has gotten a lot of breaks. I just know if OU wins, the UT fans (ahem The Cat) will be blaming the refs and whatnot. Placing blame on the refs will not change the outcome of the game.

    OU has gotten outplayed for the most part, but their special teams and defense has stepped up tremendously.

    Newsflash: The better team doesn't always win.
