              Wth? Are you camping out here just waiting for a chance to post drivel like this? And if you think the reasons you have bleated about are those in the minds of Texas sports writers it just shows how poorly you understand them.
              PLesa excuse the tpyos.

                I'm flattered that you all hold me to a batting .1000 standard. That's not how it works, though. I was wrong about the Arizona game. I plead guilty to overestimating Arizona's recovery from its recent tragedy. I could have been more wrong; BYU could have won by a lot.

                    You're a actually a little better than .1000. But just a little.

                      Welcome to Big 12 politics. UT wants Houston and BYU. OU wants BYU and anybody except Houston. I still don't understand why UT wants Houston in the Big 12. I haven't read anything where Charlie Strong or the UT AD has been in favor of it; only the UT president. I think it was Uncle Ted who mentioned something about expanding UT-Houston campus. That would make sense on why the president is in favor but the HC and AD are silent.

                      The list of schools who have left conferences because of Texas or who were blocked from joining a conference because of Texas is impressive: Arkansas, Colorado, Nebraska, Missouri, Texas A&M, and BYU.

                        Your predictions could be perfectly replicated by 2-3 lines of computer code. That is how simplistic they are.

                          BYU in past tense? Knock it off.

                              Batting .1000 isn't that impressive to be honest.
