re: Worse OU choke job?

Not a choke job. They’re getting their arse kicked .
Throwing a long pass on the run, in a windy environment, across your body when you can walk for a 1st down? Poor decision that killed the momentum.
Yes, Alabama did flush him out of the pocket, and yes the receiver was wide open.

Punter dropping the ball but not kicking it? 100% choke. All Alabama did was fall on the kid and the ball.

Pick 6. Alabama had a nice catch and run, but Mateer couldn't have made it any easier even if he handed the ball to him. Maybe not a choke, but he certainly gagged it up.

On a side note, Mateer's pass was more wounded duck than dime but it did hit the receiver in the hands.
It was certainly not a perfect pass, nowhere close to that,

If he runs, 99 % chance he gets a 1st down.

Throwing on the run across his body on a windy night to a wide open receiver is much less than 99%.

Game situation leading 17 points to 12 yards of offense? run for the 1st down, run some more and eat some clock, get to 24-0 or 20-0.

Drop the ball, forget to kick the punt, pick-6; ball game. The pick-6 was a killer.

Sometime you just have to throw the ball away, you can't scramble out of everything.

Mateer make a lot of really good plays, but he also makes a lot of poor decisions. That side arm shortstop flick into the teeth of the DL-OL mosh pit? Nope.

Muschamp will need more than a year. Sark is going to miss his ”Manning” and “Simmons” window
I think Texas will have 6 new starters on defense in the bowl game, to go with the new recruits that are early enrollees (all but one, I think).

I don't think it will be much different than most teams, replacing 30+ players from graduation, leaving early, and transfers.

You should know as well as anybody that Simmons doesn't need much coaching.

Sark has had enough of dropping elite pass rushers like Ant Hill and Colin Simmons into coverage on 3rd down. Enough of the bend but don’t break. Enough soft coverages in the secondary. Texas didn’t create nearly enough pressure and turnovers this year with talent they had in the front seven. PK is a very good defensive coordinator but Sark wanted a different style. He tried to hire Muschamp when he took the Texas job. Clearly the opportunity finally presented itself and he told PK to head west.
I liked PK, but Coach Boom is an upgrade.

PK's defense against Florida was pathetic, giving up two 10+ play TD drives in the 1st half. His prevent defense resulted in two games giving up 21 second half points, that turned laughers into "close" games.

If Texas "fired" PK, it was probably mutually agreed in a manner that paid him money and negated a new team from having to buyout his Texas contract. He wanted to get back to the pacific NW, probably as Oregon's DC.

Muschamp was always Sarks 1st choice for DC. I thought M made a choice that allowed him to see his kids grow up. Didn't the older one play at Georgia?

M's wife likes Austin. I read they kept their house and vacation here.

PK wasn't a recruiter, and clearly not from around here. Guys will want to play for Muschamp, the attacking, high light reel kind of defense.

I don't expect we will see Colin Simmons dropping back in pass coverage anymore, or giving receivers 10 yard cushions.

Texas has a lot of great players, good culture guys, soft spoken and quiet, lead by example kind of guys. Muschamp will energize and elevate those guys.

longhorns posters doing a good job of having a stiff upper lip as they watch OU, Tech, and Aggies all selected for the CFP to compete for the national championship.

We all know that inside they are so green with envy they are about to bust!
We are disappointed, but it has nothing to do with the teams we beat, convincingly.

Florida can crow the loudest, and Georgia was the better team, again, so they don't need to crow.

Texas has double digit wins over their 3 rivals in back to back years for the first time in 50 years. That smile will last for a while.
When there were 2 teams, the 3rd complained.

When there were 4 teams, the 5th complained.

Now there are 12 teams, and the 13th complained.

Somebody always feels like they got the short end of the stick. That will never go away.

Texas ruined A&M's best season that anyone alive can remember.

Texas ruined A&M's chances of playing in their 1st SEC Championship Game.

Texas ruined A&M's chances of winning the SEC.

Texas destroyed A&M's chances at a 1st round bye, that will probably be taken by ..., TTech.

Texas reinforced, again, what you already know. That A&M, when given a chance for all the glory, with all the chips on the line, will gag it up.

Yes, overall the season was a disappointment. Going in, most knew that the OL would be a problem, and starting the season on the road at Ohio State was less than ideal.

But, we beat our 3 rivals by double digits. Again.

You know how you expect your team to have a bad game after you whip your top 10 ranked rival all over the field?

Oh…wait.



Bijan was always special player.

As good at catching a pass as any RB to ever play.

Now that Atlanta got rid of the arse wipe HC they used to have, Bijan has a chance to play, and shine.

Really enjoyed watching him get to play in prime time.

Texas defensive numbers are extremely overrated due to level of competition they have played. They have played 3 of the worst non conference games in the country. Sam Houston State, San Jose St UTEP. If you look at their combined win loss records ouch. Not saying Texas defense is bad or anything but those numbers would be higher vs better competition.


I don’t disagree with you.

Texas played 75 players last game, including most of the freshman. A lot of of the starters missed games while healing, including 2 AA’s on defense.

Ohio State only gained 203 yards, not much better numbers than the other 3. All world WR Jeremiah Smith had 6 receptions for 43 yards.

Our season starts Saturday.

A&M isn't jealous of Texas because we don't need them ... A&M has the political power and money that we don't need shite from them... Hell we still have a $20 Billion endowment
The University of Texas manages the Permanent University Fund (PUF, the majority of their endowment), and other assets and resources, for the benefit of A&M.

Given A&M's prowess in negotiating contracts, y'all would have blown it many years ago if left on your own.

Texas has 3 Rivals, and has played them 319 times since 1894.

Texas has played Oklahoma 120 times in the 124 years since 1900, every year other than 1924-1928.

Texas played A&M 118 times in 117 years, beginning in 1894, before A&M left for the SEC.

Texas played Arkansas every year since 1933, 80 times total starting in 1894, before Arkansas left for the SEC.

With the SEC protective scheduling, and only playing 8 conference games, I don't believe most of the SEC "rivals" have played every year.
