National Championship Game Thread- Texas vs. Bama

[stingray]

mcoy is hurt...

 

[Errant Hothy]

Colt's shoulder might be toast.

 

[disaacks3]

Saban thinks he is the smartest motherfo on this earth with that dumbass call...

In fairness...it should have been a surprise...as it goes against his very grain. But that reminded me so much of the C. Brown play, it was vomit-inducing.

 

[Blake]

Enough with the Garrett Gilbert.

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

Alabama didn't know Texas would run there?

 

[Khari]

perhaps vy is in the audience and can come in for them

But on your first drive? at 0-0? I don't know... It's like he is sending a message to his team that they are not good enough to beat UT unless they pull out all the tricks.

 

[disaacks3]

Now I'm just waiting for the "vaunted Bama Defense" to actually make an appearance

How 'bout now?

 

[disaacks3]

Oh, don't misunderstand me...I thought it was GALACTICALLY stupid to do it.

 

[Errant Hothy]

Texas left 4 points on the field there.

 

[Ryan]

Maybe Alabama will decide to move the ball forward this time.

 

[disaacks3]

What is it with this game and similarities for BOTH teams to the Texans? !st & Goal from the half yard line and you have to settle for a FG? jeez

 

[Khari]

everytime they say Houston I have a flashback that I'm watching a Texans game

 

[Errant Hothy]

Colt going to locker room with the medical staff...not good.

 

[brakos82]

What is it with this game and similarities for BOTH teams to the Texans? 1st & Goal from the half yard line and you have to settle for a FG? jeez

Hey! At least they made the FG.

 

[Khari]

Hey! At least they made the FG.

enough with the FGs!

 

[Mike Kerns]

Hope Colt can walk it off, because I'm not liking the chances with Gilbert.

 

[Ndevine7]

Hey! At least they made the FG.

Texans shouldve called up this guy at least he could make field goals

 

[brakos82]

everytime they say Houston I have a flashback that I'm watching a Texans game

Not to mention that they look the same when you read too fast.

 

[brakos82]

I think we're looking at drafting him.

 

[michaelm]

Yeah baby! Longhorn Ball!!!

 

[michaelm]

Mack is gonna have to let that young man air it out. If he's gonna pass, might as well take a deep shot when you do... IMO.

 

[Ndevine7]

I think we're looking at drafting him.

Really i havent heard that but would be nice. Ive always been a Kris Brown fan but what he did to us this year was too miuch

 

[disaacks3]

Texans vs. THIS game...

Silly fake play - check
Can't punch it in from the One - check
Coughing up the ball during a return - check

 

[Mike Kerns]

Well, that was uninspiring.

 

[Errant Hothy]

UT needs 7 this time...and looks like it's not going to happen.

 

[Ndevine7]

Can the Texans sign this guy right now?

 

[m5kwatts]

Can the Texans sign this guy right now?

Haha yeah he kicks a nice ball I thought the same thing

 

[Ndevine7]

Haha yeah he kicks a nice ball I thought the same thing

Anything has been better then Kris Brown this year

 

[Ryan]

Dear Texans, draft Hunter Lawrence. Thanks.

 

[Khari]

if this sets up that colt comes back in hurt late in the game and wins it i'm calling in sick to work tomorrow

 

[brakos82]

Really i havent heard that but would be nice. Ive always been a Kris Brown fan but what he did to us this year was too miuch

Yeah, the guy from UT, Nebraska, somewhere else...

 

[Ndevine7]

Yeah, the guy from UT, Nebraska, somewhere else...

Are they looking at Leigh Tiffen from Alabama i have always thought he has been one of the better kickers

 

[brakos82]

Are they looking at Leigh Tiffen from Alabama i have always thought he has been one of the better kickers

That might be it.

 

[Ndevine7]

Its never gonna happen but imagine the Texans drafting Julio Jones in either 2011 if he declares or 2012. Imagine Julio and Andre that would be scary

 

[Ndevine7]

Bama oline looks terrible out there right now

 

[stingray]

Bama oline looks terrible out there right now

UT is sending alot different looks. I think they will get it together...

 

[Ndevine7]

UT is sending alot different looks. I think they will get it together...

Yea i know also Texas CB are playing well no one is getting open and pocket is just collapsing on Mcelroy

 

[brakos82]

'Bama fans are booing. LOL

 

[Errant Hothy]

So the UT D looks exceptional defending the pass and down right bad defending the run, pity that Bama cannot run the ball.

Without Colt UT had little chance.

I hope ur joking that Bama cant run the ball. I think you are but im not sure

agreed, without Colt, UT's chances are not good

 

[Ryan]

Ingram is looking like a beast right now. He hasn't even really had great holes to run through, he's made his own.

 

[stingray]

What was that UT message board that many on here were going to battle with about vince young and the Tacks? They must be on suicide watch after Colt got hurt.

 

[Ndevine7]

walked right in there wowww

 

[Khari]

shaggybevoshit

 

[Carr Bombed]

This game is over, what a freaking letdown. I can't believe Colt got knocked out on the 1st series.

 

[Errant Hothy]

If I was Mack Brown I'd seriously consider putting Chiles at QB for the next quarter, and run a whole hell of a lot of the zone option.
