  1. In the great, famous words of Billy Packer, "This game is ovah!"
  2. That guy is definitely the man of the hour, day, possibly season for catching and holding that ball so well. l
  3. Call it hindsight, I guess, but do you think different ideas were thrown around once our coaches realized we had a 3rd quarter problem? And we had plenty of great reps from Arch, in the games early in the season. All we had to do was have Arch come out and run the first series of the 2nd half in two or three games in a row, it seems to me. This was so much easier to handle than the stupid 2009 situation, I think, when Mack fucked up by refusing to let GG pass when he was allowed to go in and mop up. Doesn't QE improve his focus, etc. when he sees Arch moving the ball in the 3rd quarter? Got to look at Saban. Remember he sat whichever starting QB it was and went to the backup in the 3rd or 4th quarter? Wasn't it the final game? Unbelievable. Is Saban the only coach with the balls to do that?
  4. This was indeed the #2 waste of defensive talent in UT history, only behind the 1983 team. #1 ranked D all season, and if memory serves correctly, all senior starters drafted into the pros, and a backup senior drafted as well. Many people maintain that if Fred had started Rob Moerschell at QB in the 1984 CB, we would have an additional NC to our name. Instead we had Rick McIvor throwing darts at receivers who dropped many passes in the CB and the infamous dropped punt by Craig Curry in the 10-9 loss to Georgia. The strange factoid of the day is that nobody knew that game lost us the NC while it was being played. We didn't know it until Miami upset Nebraska 31-30 in the Orange Bowl, in the best bowl game I have ever seen until the 2003? Fiesta bowl, Ohio State vs. Miami, the game when Miami's great RB got hurt, and then of course the top two bowl games ever, the 2005 Rose Bowl and the 2006 Rose Bowl.
  5. Whichever Walker it is, he definitely flew over the goal line on a regular basis, and don't think we would have any problem recruiting some young man to jump over the line to score TDs.
  6. 2nd chance at the lead.....dont' waste it.
  7. 3rd down from the 3, and throws incomplete....will Dan Quinn go for it? incomplete in end zone. don't know if you can make a case for flag or not.
  8. 1st and goal at the one, Daniels does the rollout pass run option and has to throw it away. 2nd and goal at the one, handoff for negative yards.
  9. So, the reason I think I remember this guy. Round Rock High School, I'm a freshman in the band, and we go to Killeen for the first time, and this guy runs roughshod over us, and the score might have been 21-0 at the end of quarter one. Or I might be confusing this with the Temple game. Either way, it made a serious impact. We won every halftime and lost almost every football game.
  10. Walker, John 45 OB 6-1 210 Fr-HS Killeen, TX (Killeen) Walls, Herkie 11 QB-WR 5-8 146 So-1L Garland, TX (Garland) my Texas football brain is still working!!! from the 1980 roster! Check out Herkie's height and weight!
  11. Nope, somebody is messed up here. I just saw a picture of #36 Adrian Walker and it says 1991. The Walker I am thinking of is at least 1985 or earlier. hmmm. For some reason I think he was #45, but don't know.
  12. ok,. thanks. So Adrian is from Killeen or Temple? I'm old now.
  13. Skins haven't looked this good since Riggins and Company....and that's a LONG TIME!
  14. woo! Now that is a cool punt return!
