    Bergeron has a hamstring injury.
    Brown still has turf toe.
    Shipley has a sore MCL. Didn't make the trip.
    Fozzy looks like his knee buckled. Doubtful to return.

    Doesn't help that refs are calling bad targeting penalties on Texas and not flagging clear holds/block in the backs by Missouri. Ugh....they are so obvious, too.

    This season is about playing the young guys.

    True, but Case is only a sophomore.....and you still want to try to win...if a player is struggling, take him out, hold them accountable.

    It was definitely a horrible call, but don't forget about the first drive of the game - when the whistle clearly blew before Mizzou's fumble. Unfortunately for MU, that aspect wasn't reviewable, and the play stood.

    I understand the frustration because that was a garbage call... but in terms of game impact, things are fairly even. One bad one against each team.

    SMFH... I don't even know what to say. The defense is doing what it can to stop Mizzou right now, and Kenny Vaccaro makes a freaking outstanding play on 3rd down but he gets a pathetic penalty on him that was absolute BS. And apparently that was the breaking point.

    I would seriously hate to be a defensive player now.

    WTF?

    No, not even close.....

    The early whistle would have been a **** call too.....but that tackle was on 3rd down and for a loss.

    Texas is not playing well, but with all these injuries their margin of error is thin.

    Hey...wait a minute....you are a Mizzou guy anyway....come on Cat....don't kick the hornets nest, let us whine in here properly.

    It was a routine, forward-progress-stopped situation. Those plays get whistled prior to players actually going down all the time.

    I'm letting y'all whine - the Vaccaro flag was definitely an awful call, and you know no one is as hard on officials as I am. :) Just reminding that there was a pretty questionable one the other way, as well...

    The only way we can win this one is by throwing it with all the injuries in the backfield. I like what the guy said at halftime - take the training wheels off Ash. If we aren't willing to do that for fear of his confidence breaking like Gilbert then put in McCoy. He may not have the most talent, but he is a gamer at least. Could eek one out like against BYU.

    Oh there was a whistle... but the official nearest the play ignored it, and you can't review when the whistle came.

    Anyway, aside from Fozzy (who sadly looks done for the year), I hope UT gets Bergeron and Brown back in the next couple weeks. Would love to see y'all finish off the Aggies with a win.

    Play someone on your that's worth a damn, then come back and troll.

    He's had spurts. You're right, he's handed off most of the time, but he just looks like he isn't even trying out there.

    Tell yo boy Dodds that we are more than welcomed to play UT anyday of the week.

    Just don't be scared, please?

    Cougars won't bite, or will we?

    They were going to play Rice at Historic Rice Stadium, but Rice took the money from Reliant. I was pissed. Baqueef doesn't know what he's talking aobut
