i'm very proud of ash after last night. defense on the other hand needs a stern week of practice.

there was still a lot of time left and the defenses were not getting stops. you take the 1 as long as you can and wait until the last possible moment to go for 2.
when they failed on the attempt it made it possible to lose if OSU scored a TD at the end of the game.
they should not have gone for 2 until after the Bergeron TD in the final minute.

OSU was very disciplined with their run blocking. They kept using the same play over and over and we simply couldnt stop it. It reminded me of the play GB made popular in the 60s....or the counter tre that the skins used with Riggins.
We are going to give up yards and points, I can live with that........especially in a conference with such explosive offenses. However, I cannot live with such pisspoor tackling. Phillips gave up 2 TDs last night because of his garbage tackling technique.
BTW, even though I am a Horns fan, I had to appreciate the run where Randle trucked Tucker.....that was just a man's run right there.

That was mystifying. We we're all sitting looking at each other wondering, what, did their kickoff specialist get hurt? The previous kicks went into the endzone or were covered easily. |

I was glad to see Texas win, .. but with all of the replay technology at their disposal, that should never happen.
No referee ever saw any Texas player possess the football in the endzone because they never did.
OSU fans now know what Green Bay fans feel like. |

I'll always defend a ref for missing a call live because its gonna happen sometimes and they aren't watching slow motion replays like we are but to miss it on replay is inexcusable, that was clearly a fumble and the Texas kickoff clearly was touched by the OSU guy before it went out of bounds.
You can't spell bias without BS.

yes it was a fumble....however, there was no angle that showed definitively where the ball was when the fumble happened. did it cross the goal first or not.
i feel UT got away with one, but still, the video was not conclusive as to if he fumble before or after the ball crossed the goal. because it was called a TD, without any conclusive evidence, it could not be overturned.

It may have been a fumble but once they signaled it a TD, there was no clear evidence who, when or where the ball was recovered, so there was no way for them to overturn it.
The network official explained that pretty clearly during the replay TO I thought. |

There was a lot that could not be seen in the replay, but you could see that the fumble was before it crossed the goal-line.
But because it had already been called a TD .....

LOL I just noticed the tagline under your username. Double entendre?
Let me be the 1st to welcome WVU to The 40 Acres. Tell Dana we're waiting on him and we've seen his act before.
No seriously, I can't wait. Hope it's a good game and I'm surprised College Game Day isn't going to be in Austin. |

Oh, that's right. Never dawned on me they only do the show from sites where they're also broadcasting the game. Duh me!  |
