  1. Remember that it took Mack Brown 8 years to win a conference title and he needed to have a once in a generation player to do it.
  2. True but being behind only 2 scores with a quarter left is better than 3.
  3. Iowa should have kicked a FG there and made it a two score game, There's still plenty of time in the game.
  4. DKR wasn't fired but he was definitely feeling the pressure from "the Suits" in the Tower to upgrade the image of the football program from a rugged. tough image to a more corporate one. That was one the reasons he resigned.
  5. I heard Sark's post game interview and he was very upset about the team's performance. For what I have heard from him, he has not told us "learn to live with it" or "you can't expect to beat RIce every time". Yes, a certain UT coach did say that and many of you let that same coach mess with your mind for six years. Coach Sark gets a least 3-4 years from me(barring serious off field incidents). I have never recruited against any UT football and I hope that most posters will follow suit.
  6. I can go with that. All the holdovers from the Deloss Dodds era need to be gone.
  7. Just posted the infamous 1992 game above. Please feel free to point out any officiating mistakes. I cannot believe that this video got past the Baylor censors. For record, one of my best friend's Dad was line judge for this game. I can confirm that he is an aggy.

  10. Jimbo got out of FSU to escape the lynch mob. He didn't just leave because of a better coaching destination. One can only hope that Jimbo does to aggy what he did to FSU. Many of the problems the Seminoles have right now is because of Fisher.
  11. Ask me this question in the next couple of years Even though Tom Herman pulled the program out somewhat from the Charlie Strong years, he did not recruit as well as needed in both the OL and DL areas. That is what is hurting up now.
  12. Knowing Sooner fans like I do, this is just a retribution for what happened in 1984. (BTW, I queued up a time in a Youtube video where a bad call went against UT in a very important call of that game). UT fans need to quit apologizing for that gamee. IMHO, our sports coaches need to go full "Bobby Knight on this type of BS. We need a stronger media relations department as well.
  13. We also blew a 21 pt lead against OU in 1995 with Mackovic as coach. Game only ended in a tie when OU missed a last second FG.
  14. I'm numb right now, Unbelievable meltdown. It was total chaos on defense. How can a team with some 4 star players look so bad on defense?

    OU @ KSU Fox

    Stuff like this "so called" challenge after a review has been made is why i hate OU with the passion and intensity of 10000 suns
  16. IMHO, this game is a must win for UT. It will show the naysaynig press out there that UT football is going in the right direction. I really want us to break the 81 points we scored against them in 1974. I hope the team comes out really pissed off. I'm sure that the local FW press will provide plenty of bulletin board material this week BTW, I really don't care if they're a bunch of good guys to have drinks with.
  17. You have to give Coach Sark at least 3 years to implement his schemes. The offense he runs is the one that USC ran against us in the Rose Bowl. It's not a simple offense to implement right off the bat. Need to give him some time. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that Coach Sark has some MNC rings as well as an offensive assistant at USC in both 2003 and 2004.
  18. Season is not lost. We have a 1st year coach with a new system. There is still a potential for a very good season. A couple of DKR quotes comet to mine: "We live here one day at a time and scratch where it itches" "Potential means you aint done it yet"
  19. OU has only won 1 and that was because of a glitch in the BCS system that allowed them to play FL St instead of Miami
  20. DKR once said "Trends are bunk, only angry people win football games" IMHO, Texas football needs to go back to the gospel of DKR. Not necessarily run the same offense or defense but to play for UT with pride and a chip on your shoulder. Contrast that to what Coach Akers said during Arkansas week in 1984(I was staff assistant at the time) He told the team "Guys, you just have to go out there and knock their dicks in the dirt. Deep down they want to be Texas but down inside they know they're not. Please do not ask me how I know this"(with a big grinning smile)

  22. That was my second game. Our offense was bad because the UT QB at the time really was not capable of running it. It was glorious shutting down Dickerson and James though. My first game was the 1979 game vs SMU at Texas Stadium. UT won 30-6. The '79 Texas defense is one of the best in school history. Watching them in person was a sight to behold. I felt sorry for that SMU OG who had to at first block Steve McMichael and then his backup Kenneth Sims.
  23. ODU takes lead 3-2 at top of 8th. Go Monarchs!
  24. I knew Larry back when I was a UT football manager back in 1984. Great guy, relative of UT Baseball legend Bibb Falk. RIP Big Larry
  25. Do you really think OU scheduled Miami back in the 1980s because they were going to be tough competition? No, Switzer thought it was going to be a couple of easy victories as well as a very good recruiting trip into Florida. When asked about scheduling tough non-conference foes, Barry Switzer once said "Texas is enough for me". Yes, OU won it in 1985 and they were lucky in that regard because Miami lost their bowl game. Remember that OU's "Outlaw Underdog" image allows to win or play for championships even though they have double digit losses. As far as Schnellenberger being an over the hill coach, he did develop the football program at Florida Atlantic. His problem at OU stemmed from the fact that he tried to 'redevelop' the tradition at OU(just like Mackovic was trying to do here at the time). BTW, Okie double talk doesn't work on me just ask an old HS classmate of mine, Brian Bosworth.
