  1. Nice drive Texas, but you need 7….
  2. FIGHT MFers!!!!!…..
  3. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/6e10f6d6-0c5f-4397-8737-37020b7708a4
  4. Texas has a reputation for game crowds that don’t always bring the noise, but in my long experience, big games are an exception. Looking forward to a true home field advantage environment. Hook Em’, be loud (VERY loud), and stay late, and send a message to the SEC that we’re not stuck in the SEC with them, that they’re stuck in the SEC with us.
  5. From the fading memory of the days when Texas never feared a beat down, TEXAS!!!!
  6. How about "Should've taken the job when you had the chance Saban"
  7. This game represents an opportunity to change the perceived standard of mediocrity surrounding this program for the decade-plus since the 2010 National Championship game, but the game may be occurring too soon for a young Horns squad to seize the opportunity
  8. Strange throwing motion Ewers has. Looks almost like he flicks the ball with a half wind up
  9. Are you saying Jesus Christ can’t hit the deep ball?????
  10. I see what they’ve been talking about in regards to Ewers’ non-chalant demeanor. He looks kind of nervous to me, but hopefully it’s just his personality
  11. They had to cut back on letters due to the labor shortage
  12. We’re Texas, you should be
  13. B.J. Foster with the INT
  14. From the mean streets of Four Points, FIGHT!!!!!!
  15. The way it was done before NIL…….
  16. I must have missed the part in my post where I drew any definitive conclusions of what Quinn Ewers will and will not end up being. Thought I left the door open for a number of possible outcomes. If anything, my post was asking for patience.
  17. Or perhaps it's speculating on a scenario that you're not ready to accept. If you read the post closely, which I know is asking a lot of the Twitter era 44-character short-attention span age that the internet has so very unfortunately arrived at, it draws no conclusions on what Quinn Ewers will or will not be and leaves the door wide open for all possibilities.
  18. So the #1 recruit, aka “highest graded QB in the history of recruiting rankings”, Quinn Ewers, was unable to win the starting job at Ohio State, transfers, and now “rumors” are starting to leak that he might be on the verge of losing QB competition at Texas to a QB that was benched the season prior (as a freshman himself to be fair). While it’s always possible such a player blooms when finally actually put into a game since we haven’t really seen this yet other than a pair of handoff snaps in garbage time at Ohio State, we’re starting to see a pattern established at two schools and under two different coaching staffs. So now everyone on this board is struggling to make sense of it all from the outside based on leaks and glimpses of what might be going on inside the program’s inner circle. I would offer 2 things to consider as you attempt to make sense of it all: (1) How many highly-graded recruiting prospects have passed through The 40 Acres in the post-McCoy era that didn’t live up to the hype?, and (2) How many freshman QB’s did the program give up on, bench, etc that eventually transferred and found success elsewhere, even eventually being drafted into the pros? I want to believe that <Insert 5-Star recruit here> offers the hope of immediately changing the decade-plus narrative of mediocrity around here just as much as the next guy, but there is a history here worth analyzing that would suggest instant gratification and immediate great expectations might be part of the problem.
  19. Sounds like we’re punting the Alabama game so as not to soil Ewers’ confidence early by allowing a Card to be the sacrificial lamb. Also keeps Card from transferring. Of course the flip side of that statement is if you thought Maalik Murphy had shown enough, maybe you wouldn’t care about Card transferring, but you’d still be concerned about sending Ewers out there against Bama for his 1st or 2nd college game action
  20. Perhaps there’s something wrong with me. Perhaps this is a cry for help. But I felt this needed a bump into prime time…..
  21. God gave us 4 downs for a reason
