Couple points:

I think targeting could have been called on Taaffe. It looked like it was helmet-to-helmet. Curious to why you think it wasn't. (and I am so glad it wasn't!) 

I also think targeting should have been called on the hit on Barron on the INT. Dude laid him out when he was defenseless. 

the only reason i could see it not being called on the Taaffe hit was that they considered him a runner right at the time of contact and since there were no other indicators (crown of helmet or launching) they let it slide. Should have been called by the letter of the rule if you ask me but I don’t mind it not being called when it wasn’t an attempted knockout hit and it was very very close.

Think Cotton Bowl is de facto NC game.

To be honest. This IS the national championship. Whoever wins this is winning it all.

Except that they don’t hand out a national championship trophy. Don’t be an aggy.

Ok Ok. My bad. I simply mean this is the strongest side of the bracket.

I’m glad she talks to you about me 

His mom talks to me about you too. She says you have a small penis and like to get pegged.

Vegas knows something that I think the entire Texas fanbase does not.  What it is - I guess we will see when they play because I have no clue how we would be a favorites.

Yes, his name is Ryan Day

People were saying the Rose Bowl was the de facto NC game.

If Texas somehow beats OSU, the ND vs. Georgia winner can give Texas all they want. If OSU wins, they will be a solid favorite in the title game.

If we end up playing GA one more time, we might just beat the fuck outta them

Since I usually love your posts, can you please explain why it wasn't targeting? I honestly want to hear your thinking.

I mean the ref said it wasn't targeting so there you go....case closed.

Desmond Howard is almost orgasmic thinking Ohio St is going to win next week.

Put money on Texas.

Dez is a lot of things, many mediocre.  But, there is no way Desmond Howard is orgasmic over the idea of tOSU winning.

Because helmet to helmet isn't automatically targeting. You have to have an indication of targeting, a lunge, lowering of the head, something. There was absolutely nothing there.  It was actually much closer on the hit against Bond. That guy absolutely threw a forearm into his head and that absolutely could and should have been identified as an indicator of targeting.

Oh he is.   

The guy who won a Heisman Trophy at Michigan isn't.  Are you sure you are not confusing him with Joey Galloway to his right?

Texas is gonna get shat on by the media and on social media for the next 9 days until the game starts. 

Our guys are gonna be ready to silence the haters. Only question is, can our OL handle their front? If so, Bond should be healthy again, Wisner and Blue will be fresh, and our defense should be able to hold them under 30.

Their LBs can be had in coverage, but our RBs didn't make hay against ASU like I expected so who knows.

Their comments about Desmond being hyped about OSU winning might just be a little racist.

If ESPN tells him to be, he will be and gladly

I’ll explain why. Your player kept his head up when he made the hit.  Just like our LB against Tennessee when he broke the quarterbacks helmet. 
 

should be a great game next Friday.

The icy whites are elite but lets actually wear burnt orange this time since we are the home team.

I see one storyline already emerging - and Joey Galloway just made this point: Texas was the favorite to win the NC coming into the QFinals. And now they won't be.

He attributes it to our struggles today and, to a lesser extent, against Clemson.

But, it's BS. Coming into this round, we had the highest probability to win the NC of any of the eight teams remaining, but our %age was only trailed slightly by Ohio State and Oregon.

The winner of the Rose Bowl was ALWAYS going to be the favorite going into the semis. It's like having two players from the same team splitting votes for the MVP. We were going to be the dog in the Cotton Bowl regardless.

How many times will we see Muhammad throw his hands up mid play blaming somebody else for giving up a completion to his receiver against these guys? JFC that pissed me off. Saw it a little against Clemson too when he was getting torched. 

That effort on the RB pass play was fucking pathetic.

That should've been a pic.

The hype for this semifinal game won’t sniff the feet of Texas/USC.  Nowhere close.  This isn’t close to the Texas/Bama national title game. These are two 2-loss teams that finished ranked #3 and #6. There have been a lot more hyped games than this.

Hell, Texas/ND or Ohio State/ND for the national title would be a bigger deal.

That line is laughable.
tOSU will boatrace this team like 38-10.

We can’t run the ball at all and are very limited in the passing game. Our OL has regressed and is undisciplined. Our head  coach makes bonehead decisions. Our special teams is shit with a moron in charge.
 

Our defense will play well but will quickly tire out once TOP works against them. Muhammad and Taaffe will get burned all night by the best WR corps in the country.

 

Texas will lose. It will not be close.

I like your bit, friend, but don't overdo it.

He had the receiver well covered and at least should have contested the catch. Instead he throws his hands up and kinda jogs towards the action.

Yeah, people who weren't alive or following sports will never really understand the build up of Texas vs USC. I believe it remains the only time in history #1 and #2 held those positions all year and their met up with 3 Heisman candidates/winners in opposing back fields.

Not two helmet schools from the "fly over territory" in a CFP semi-final.
