Wow...Texas is just not good. What does that say about Nebraska? How overrated were they?
Not sure about that. It's actually quite opposite. On Saturdays we are watching a team that can't move the ball. On Sundays we are watching a team that can't stop anyone.
It says "any given Saturday". That is why the system is so flawed. At least in the NFL teams can overcome getting beat by a lesser opponent once or twice a season.

Are we going to have a Mackpalm now?
LOL, that pic above was the closest thing I could find for a Mack palm. He's not completely covering his face but it is close.

Texas is just having a down year. It isn't a good thing but it happens sometimes. Gilbert has been a disappointment and they better hope that Malcolm Brown honors his verbal commitment and doesn't change to Alabama because they are still coming hard after that guy.
Would you want to play in a Greg Davis offense as a RB or for Alabama's offense?
Classic letdown after giving Nebraska the middle finger in Lincoln. It was a great win for the program and for our conference/state, but Mack better hope he can rally the troops because this loss would be the most embarassing loss in a long long time. If they can't beat Iowa State we may be talking the horns playing Texas Bowl in Reliant...or worse. That would be 3 losses and if they can't beat Iowa State at home there could be more losses to come.
This team looks unprepared, unfocused, and unmotivated. Plus you have the offseason where Georgia is going to come after Muschamp real hard after firing Richt. Texas can match the paycheck but Georgia is Will's school and he wouldn't have to wait DeLoss Dodds retires to get promoted to HC.
As long as Malcolm Brown (and the myriad of others) keeps his commitment, there is hope for 2011, but 2010 looks like its gonna be a rough time for the boys in Austin.

Florida State is going hard at Malcolm Brown as well if I am not mistaken.

Well as an Aggie I would like to welcome the Longhorns to the second tier of the Big 12 South. Enjoy yourselves, stay for a while (please!), we have punch and pie next to the chocolate fountain. You know what they say, misery loves company 
Fast forward a little ... Adrian Peterson changes his commitment to OU because he feels he has a better shot at winning a NC with OU.
Fast forward a little more ...

True. The closest he ever got to winning a NC was a 55-19 beatdown by the Trojans.
I was always amused by that even though I hated losing Peterson as a recruit. He was even on the Texas sideline when they got worked over 65-13 by OU in 2003.
I knew he wasn't coming to Austin after that game. I see it working out the same way with Malcolm Brown.
...and another Gilbert interception.

That's on the receiver. If you get two hands on the ball you have to catch it. Texas does not have any receivers on this team. Hard to be a spread offense if you don't have a receiver!

I beat him to the punch with this thread. He is probably going to wait to see what "HU" does today.
Mr. White

He can show up if he wants. He can't say anything that would upset me more than the results I'm seeing on the field.
Gilbert sucks as does his receivers. They should just put in McCoy.

Some of Gilbert's decision making is quite poor. However, how much of this is on him and how much on his very poor receiving corp?
I mean here is who he has to throw the ball:
1. Kirkendall: overarted
2. Malcolm Williams: stone hands
3. Mike Davis: nice weapon but not a #1 receiver
4. Goodwin: See Davis
5. John Chiles: failed QB conversion
Whatever happened to the days of Roy Williams, Limas Sweed, Quan Cosby, and Jordan Shipley?

Is Gillbert the Jevan Snead for Texas? He sure as hell is nowhere near McCoy in terms of the first season as a full time starter.

I know. But what i mean is, why aren't they recruiting top flight receivers? If you are going to run a spread offense, don't you need top receivers to throw to?!

The question though is who is going to challenge him. Do you see anyone on the roster who is going to be the Colt to GG's Snead? Connor Wood? Case McCoy? John Paul FLoyd? Maybe recruit David Ash?

Hahaha FSN announcers are the worst... a snippet from the last punt by Iowa State...
Announcer 1: "Wow, it looks like they're gonna mark it at the 30!"
Announcer 2: "Ten.."
As for the game, till now it looks like UT-Austin overlooked/couldn't get up for this game, especially after the big win last week, and are just now starting to get into it.
