  1. Hail Mary, or a field goal, but that might get blocked.
  2. No pass interference, refs really eating the flags right now.
  3. You knew that was coming, the way this game has gone. Dangerous series coming up for Pitt, if they are going to throw the ball down field.
  4. Game was over if Pitt had stuck to the ground on the prior series, now it's a tossup.
  5. Maybe just stick to wildcat and run the clock. Pittsburgh keeps trying to give this game away.
  6. What is the record for helmets coming off in a game by one team?
  7. Benching Lynch has really made a difference and could be a game winning move.
  8. Good thing that the Pitt running back Reid's helmet is at least one size to large or he would have a broken neck.
  9. I would consider becoming the OC for Pitt, if the offer was right.πŸ˜ƒ
  10. Which doesn't matter when the walk on quarterback throws the ball to Toledo consistently. I would put that other freshman quarterback back in and run the wildcat till Toledo stopped it.
  11. Which is matched by the even more horrible announcers, especially the play-by-play guy, that has no clue what is happening on the field most of the time.
  12. I member too and also the Friday afternoon block partes there on the outside, that UT used to have during the spring semester.
  13. Maine was never that good of a team or program. Back in the late 1970's through the mid 1980's the NCAA required that Regionals be played in all sections of the country. Maine was the best of the teams in the Northeast Region and hosted for several years. The NCAA also required that teams from the region be in the Regionals. So, for these years Maine would win this Regional and go to Omaha. They would usually go 0-2 and be eliminated. They were coached by a crusty old guy named John Winkin. He was a gruff guy that was an old school baseball coach. He was friends with Coach Gus and Maine would come to Austin to play the Horns fairly often and usually get beat badly in those games. The one-year Maine did well in Omaha was in 1982 behind the arm of future MLB pitcher Billy Swift. He was a nice guy and us Texas fans always got along well with the Maine players and fans; they just usually weren't there very long. This year they made the final four teams before their nemesis Miami, eliminated them, after Maine had beaten them earlier. Then in the late 1980's the NCAA allowed other schools to go to other Regionals, as the top seed there. The first year this happened of all teams Miami went to the Maine Regional and easily won it. Then the NCAA dropped the rule that there had to be Regionals in all regions of the country and that was the end of Maine as sort of a baseball power. They haven't been back to Omaha or even been that good since the days of when they would host and be the #1 seed of those Maine Regionals. I still got some things those Maine players and fans gave me back then. Those were great years watching Texas Baseball, other teams also at Disch-Falk and then in Omaha, or as we called the Horns, the University of Texas at Omaha. I knew Abe back then too. We used to stop in Oklahoma City on the way to Omaha for the CWS and talk to him, when he was coaching there.
  14. The fake punt that Bama tried in that game was intercepted on a diving catch by Blake Gideon. Problem was that it was fourth down and if he just lets it hit the ground it would have gained over 25 yards in field position for the Horns. It was like the polar opposite of when he dropped the easy interception against Texas Tech, but still a bad result for Texas. The end result in both games were bad too.
  15. The reason for optimism for me is Mafah is not just banged up but has left games at times this season. He has a shoulder injury, that will require surgery at the end of the season. That with their second-string running back Jay Haynes is out for the season. The Clemson rush defense isn't that good either, so Texas can reestablish the running game and open up the passing game.

  16. Mississippi Valley State looks like an NBA team compared to this bunch.
  17. Bronco quarterback threw "Sambucci" a pass he couldn't refuse.
