Didn't we move into the top 10-15 after being ND to start 2016? It was an absurd jump. But with this win plus the last 3 weeks, how are we not a top 10 team right now? OU and that offense is fucking legit. This was our best win this decade by far. But at this point, I don't give a shit. OU should not be ahead of us, though. They have yet to beat a team worth a damn yet. And we have them head to head.

They’re not ranking OU ahead of us when we just beat them and have the same record you dumb shits.

Tell that to Art Briles.  

 

Edit: in case this reference is too obscure, I am of course talking about 2008, when we beat OU and had the same record as OU, yet OU went to the MNC ahead of us because, iirc, OU was ahead in the coaches poll thanks largely to Art Briles and a few others who put us ridiculously low. Someone correct me if I am misremembering the details.

The fact that coaches get to have a ranking is fucking absurd to begin with. Then again so is sports writers.

That was seven games later after we lost and OU won out. This is the next week. They’re not ranking OU ahead of us the week after we beat them. (And fuck Art Briles.)

If you're wrong, I'm wrong right there with you. That cocksucker, Briles should rot in hell for a variety of reasons, this being just one of them. (But a pretty big one.)

That's going to be hard for voters, you cant drop ou too far, but you have to move Texas up... is there enough room for all the Sec teams?

9 or 10. If the offense can perform at that level for the rest of the season, we should win out, because the D is only going to get better. That will put us in the top 5 going into the Big 12 Championship game. We win that and we'll be on the verge of a Nat'l Championship appearance (Not getting ahead of myself, am I?). Stay healthy Horns. Stay prepared, coach.

We have looked dominant at times and weak at times, but I can’t think of another team that has beaten 3 ranked opponents. That should qualify us for top 10.

That said, I don’t give a fuck. Just win on the field and we will be treated well come bowl time.

I was going to start a thread on teams ahead of Texas that lost or are losing:

  • 5 LSU lost to 22 Florida probably stays ahead of Texas
  • 7 OU sucks lost to 19 Texas
  • 8 Auburn lost bad to Miss St has 2 losses and should fall below Texas
  • 13 Kentucky lost to aggy.  Should fall below Texas
  • 14 Stanford looks bad against Utah.  We should pass them

We should go up to about 15

Only moving up 4 spots would be insulting to Texas
