    If that’s how it goes then that’s how it goes. I’m happy as hell with 12-1 and a conference title but if you can’t get a yard on four tries from the 1 in Dallas then you kind of deserve what you get out of losing that game. Louisville is going to reverse out of FG range Jesus

    It’s not like the UL receivers could catch the ball if it got to them anyway

    Florida State is going to win this game and get absolutely rocked by Michigan

    Imagine, it’s 2021. You just watched a Texas DL unit featuring T’Vondre Sweat, Byron Murphy, Barryn Sorrell, and Alfred Collins as rotation guys give up like 1,000 yards on the ground in a single game, again. You flip over to the Georgia game and watch their DL with idk how many NFL guys just wreck shit and dream about Texas DL of old. Then imagine you are told “in two years these guys are going to be better than Georgia’s front.”

    “They” was referring to Bama, to clarify. I wouldn’t even entertain Georgia as a playoff team if they lose unless it’s mass chaos in the night games.

    This is as simplistic as saying the Texas offense was really good against OU because they had 30 points and 500 yards. The Bama defense was pretty good in context. Alabama gifted Texas the ball deep in their own territory twice, resulting 10 points. Beyond that they gave up 24 and kept the Texas running game in check for most of the game. Not really a bad performance against an offensive unit as good as Texas.

    I think the locations are picked by the committee based on not putting the top seed at a disadvantage, not predetermined

    Honestly this game is ugly as fuck, both can play defense but there is a lot of bad football too. You have to put UGA in the playoff if they are undefeated obviously but if Bama wins there is nothing here to justify that they should get in ahead of Texas.

    I don’t mean half assing as a derogatory term. The effort was great as long as it needed to be. The players and coaches clearly knew the game was won against an overwhelmed opponent and acted accordingly, including some shots at running up the score for perceived playoff benefit. I mean that Texas was obviously not concerned with OSU making anything of the game and OSU proved them right. They are ass. As to your second point, read your post again, it doesn’t at make sense. Those aren’t in conflict. You pull the starters because you are up a million, energy is naturally lower, and there is no sense risking an injury. Playing backups up 42-14 mitigates injury risk and frankly energized second stringers are still plenty capable of putting up style points against a broken opponent as was observed as recently as a week ago.

    Cross posting from the Worthy thread - I’ll be honest I overacted in the moment seeing him in a boot and on crutches. Depending on the severity of the sprain (assuming that’s what it is given Sark said x rays are negative) I would think he could play in a playoff game. Maybe limited but hopefully not too much. He obviously won’t play a non CFP bowl but he wouldn’t have without an injury anyway. The general sentiment stands. Just unnecessary. OSU had quit and you know those young backups would bring the juice against a tapped out OSU. Irresponsible and potentially hurts in a playoff game. Even if Worthy can ultimately play that doesn’t mean the unnecessary risk wasn’t there. I don’t really want to harp too much on this though. Bottom line I jumped the gun I’ll leave it at that. Texas just closed on a legacy season and may have more to come. Victory beers.

    Three non-mutually exclusive thoughts: Most importantly, I am fucking ecstatic with this championship. Really happy for the team and staff. A lot has gone into this from where the program was just a couple years ago, and frankly I did not think they would get over the hump at the beginning of the year. I hope things fall so that Texas makes the CFP but 12-1 with an outright B12 title is extremely sweet in its own right. I will remember this group and season for a long time. OSU is a bad team. Like, I was under no illusion they were actually the 18th best team in CFB but my god. How did this group beat OU, Kansas, and K State? Texas was half assing for pretty much the whole second half and it was still non competitive. Yikes. Leaving starters in up 42-14 was irresponsible and it is tragic that Xavier Worthy’s last play at Texas was very possibly getting injured throwing the ball up 42-14. C’mon Sark.

    Keeping Worthy in the game and getting him hurt - ending his Texas career - up 42-14 is tragic. He deserved a lot better than that. Thanks for everything X. I think he is going to be a fantastic pro.

    Pretty simple really. If Oregon, Alabama, and Texas all won, that could have opened a path for Texas despite FSU winning by creating a scenario where you have three teams for two spots. 12-1 SEC champion Alabama fresh off a win over UGA has the best overall body of work. Texas has H2H over Bama. The revaluing of Bama and Texas’s win over them could vault Texas over Oregon and make the latter hold the bag at the end of the day. Michigan, FSU, Texas, Bama. Oregon at 5. Is that how it would have played out? Idk. But unlike jumping 13-0 Washington the chance is nonzero. Not rocket surgery. But also moot now.

    It’s true and yet I can’t bring myself to be upset that the eye test national champs lost to their biggest rival, again

    I missed most of the game. Washington outgaining Oregon by 80, +30 on the ground, 10-15 on 3rd down vs 3-10, and +15 mins in TOP with a net zero turnover margin tells me this probably wasn’t a fluke. It was always odd to me that these teams were seen as equals six weeks ago and Oregon was favored by 9 now. Congrats to UW. I suppose this is marginally worse for Texas but I’m happy for them. DeBoer 25-2 in two years is, uh, something.
