The Horns are 45-7 in games that Colt has started. However, I contend that Colt is 45-6. He led the Horns to a 7-0 lead against KSU his freshman season, but was injured while scoring on a QB sneak. Jevan Snead played the rest of the game and the Horns got used. So IMO, the loss is on Snead.
Colt could potentially have 5 more wins.
2006 (Freshman)
He lost to tOSU, KSU, and A&M. Well in the KSU game, on 3rd and goal, Selvin Young actually crossed the plain of the goal with the football. However, the refs did not award a TD, nor did they look at it under replay. So the Horns went for it on 4th and goal. Colt scored, but suffered a neck injury that lingered the rest of the year. Colt was on fire his freshman season, and drove the Horns at will on that opening drive. I honestly feel that if he doesn't get injured, the Horns win that game. I also feel that they win the A&M game as well. So with those two wins, they go 11-1 during the regular season, instead of 9-3. They, then get the opportunity to play in the Big 12 Championship game instead of OU. With a win in the Big 12 Championship, they end up playing for the BCS title, I believe vs Florida. If it was Florida, they were awesome during that season. I think UT would have lost....So Colt actually only adds 2 wins to his total.
2007 (Sophmore)
He lost to OU, KSU, and A&M. OU was a good game, but the Charles fumble cost UT a chance at overtime. KSU owned Texas in Austin, something that never happens under Mack Brown. A&M was the better team that day. I concede all 3 losses.
2008 (Junior)
He lost to Texas Tech. Shame on the Horns for getting so far behind early. But everything seemed to go Tech's way for much of the game. Shipley dropped 2 passes, one being a deep TD if caught. Orakpo and Cosby missed much of the game with injury. TT was just dominating the LOS on both sides. Then Colt woke up and brought the Horns back. He got them the lead, but ran the play too soon and left too much time on the clock for TT. Then the famous Gideon drop. It was so Bill Buckner it is sickening. Next play, Earl Thomas takes the wrong angle on help coverage and Crabtree scores the TD. Texas should have won that game, gone on to the Big 12 Championship game, beaten Mizzou again, and then gone on to play Florida....and this time, I think they beat them. So I give Texas 2 more wins this season.
