The Biggest Coward Program in College Football

quote:

---

How bad is Texas' schedule now even with a round-robin nine-game slate to come in 2012? It's likely the Longhorns will have one top 25 conference game a season, the annual Texas-Oklahoma tussle in October. Meaning Texas will try and back door its way into the BCS title game each season by avoiding challenges rather than competing with the best in college football.

And that's what the Longhorns feared more than anything. Once it joined the SEC or the Pac 10, Texas is just another program, packing a six-shooter with no bullets. Waving that gun around in the air and yelling ain't scaring away Marcell Dareus on the blitz. He's calling your bluff and slapping you with your own empty gun. People might start to realize that for all the swagger, the Longhorns have just one national title in the past 39 years, nearly two generations of failing to capture the ultimate prize. They might also realize that most years, Texas can't even get past Oklahoma, the overrated team you've last seen being stomped by whatever opponent the Sooners draw in the BCS games, title or otherwise.

How else to explain Texas and Oklahoma appearing in six BCS title games between them and racking up a bully-like 2-4 record with an average margin of defeat of more than 18 points in those games?

Texas isn't just a coward, it is gaming the system, rigging the results to allow them a position it can't earn on the field.

In the end we're left with only one conclusion: Deep in the heart of Texas lives a football program of cowards.

Time for a new burnt orange slogan: Hook 'em ... unless you can run and hide from 'em.

After watching all this "expansion" and contraction unfold, it no longer surprises me
that other conferences don't have conference pride like the SEC does.

If I were any of the teams in the "big 12-2" I would want Texas to fail at everything. There is no mutual respect in these conferences. We migh hate each other in the SEC but for the most part there is respect for each other. These other conferences are jokes.

That's because when it comes to Texas football, the perception of success is much greater than the reality of success.

If Sam Houston had known the cowardice of the Longhorns in 2010, he would have forgotten the Alamo.

That's going to leave a mark.

But spot on.

Hahahahahah!

Good read.

What is better than bashing UTw? Taking a shot at OU as well! Nicely done.
