    Week 13 Open Thread

    This UT vs. aTm game is killing me. First and goal and ready to drive in to go up 14-0 and we give up an unforced fumble. Two plays later and the aggies score the first of 17 straight points.

    Sheesh, what a season. May not even be bowl eligible.

          What an ugly game. A&M has dodged some bullets the last couple of weeks. Both teams had chances here. I'm excited about tomorrow's games.

              Same old, same old. Gave up too many big plays and didn't take advantage of red zone opportunities. They had plenty of chances to win.

                  What a great game. Its nice to see the aggies pull together a decent stream of wins after starting out the year so badly. Hopefully the cougs can pull a aTm and win their rivalry game.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes.

                      This is the same Texas team that lost to Iowa State, correct?

                          I hope the cougs don't pull a Texas and let the bad guys win.

                              Nothing like watching a Texas A&M game with a bunch of Aggie students who know all the Aggie yells and cheers. A little better outcome for A&M this time than the last time (A&M vs Arkansas) that I had a house full of A&M kids. Great game to watch. Condolences to Longhorn fans.

                                      What was the end of that game? Nothing like just watching the clock run out. I haven't watched much Texas this year, but that team didn't look well coached. Did Mack just take a year off, or is there not much talent?

                                              Mack no longer has Vince Young or Colt McCoy at QB. But Texas always has talent. Every year they get the pick of the litter in one of the most (IMO, THE most) fertile recruiting grounds in the country. The Longhorns will be back and this is coming from someone who is not a Longhorn fan. I just chalk it up to an off year. The better question is not to ask why did the Longhorns go 5-7 in 2010; but why doesn't this occur more frequently?

                                                  Hard to believe there isn't a QB on Texas' sideline who couldn't perform better than Gilbert. I can't imagine anybody doing worse than Gilbert surrounded by the type of talent Texas has.

                                                          Did Ingram just throw up an "A" after scoring the first TD of the game? Is this a new thing for the Crimson Tide. I hope they aren't stealing/copying traditions.
