What, if anything is different because of the loss to OU Saturday?

nothing is different. This is the same team for over 10 years now.

10 fucking years. 

No excuses. Poor tackling , poor line, poor defense, bizarrely poor play calling during the second half, dumb decisions by the QB and at times receivers(cant catch) playing like DBs and DBs (cant tackle ) playing like receivers. Even the return man gets the dumb dumbs too much. 

We sold our soul for the 2015 NC and the devil wants his payment

 

I don;t think we sold our soul for that title. We made it back in 2009 with a different team and should have went 2008. Mack just got lazy with recruiting and we have been in a tailspin since 2009 Bama game. Nothing has been the same since, Gilbert was supposed to take over where VY and Colt left off. One of the best Texas HS QBs we have seen but he flopped hard mainly because the system was garbage. 

Sad thing is, there is no light at the end of the tunnel. We are now a team who fires coaches after 3 years and bring in some other spare. The fanbase talks themselves into this guy will be the difference and our savior. But another year of shit coaching and a lack of talent. How in the fuck in this state, are we lacking high school talent? OU recruits Texas just fine and is a machine every year. Mainly, how can we have gone a decade where Sam is our best by far. If Sam is your best QB of over a decade, you are not going to be competing for anything. We have one single Big 12 title appearance in the last 12 seasons....

ahhhh my friend ,that's how the devil works. Gives you a little hope and yanks it away. One drop of water in a desert. We can reach into a bucket of pussies and pull out a dick every time. 

Nothing is more cruel than a taste of hope and a deliverance of despair

It's been a few days and it seems that everyone has mostly calmed down. I find myself asking this question - what are the real impacts of the loss Saturday?

If Texas still takes care of business it controls it's own destiny to the CCG, this has not changed.

If Texas still takes care of business it ends the season with a top 10 ranking, this has not changed.

If Texas beats Oklahoma in the CCG while still in control of it's own destiny they will be knocking off a top 4 team in a CCG, it will be a 2 loss Big XII team with a top 10 ranking, and possibly a top 5 ranking.

Is the only difference that, assuming Texas does what it is capable of through the end of the season that Cincinatti gets in and Texas gets left out, still playing in a NY6 game, but not in the Playoffs?

There is no such thing as a good loss, but the negative impacts of this loss don't seem to be all that drastic at this point. Recruiting doesn't seem like it will take a hit as some of the deficiencies could be a draw for some defensive talent to make a difference immediately. The offense sees young players who are dynamic getting early playing time and getting the ball often, which is a draw. The OL play is another obvious opportunity for a young top ranked player to come in and make a difference. 

What do you think the impacts of the Loss Saturday against OU were?
