AUSTIN, Texas -- Sometime during the week, the top-ranked Texas Longhornsdug a hole in a secret spot and buried the game ball from their big win over Oklahoma.

Then, with the hype symbolically disposed of, the Longhorns went out and buried No. 11 Missouri.

Using a stunning first half, Texas raced to a 35-point lead before cruising to a 56-31 victory Saturday night that left little doubt these Longhorns plan to be No. 1 for a while.

Colt McCoy passed for a 337 yards and two touchdowns, ran for two more and set a school record with 17 straight completions in the kind of nearly flawless performance that he's starting to make look routine.

"Colt was phenomenal," Texas coach Mack Brown said. "He's showing leadership, he's poised. He's really having a good time."

McCoy and the Longhorns had earned Texas' first regular-season No. 1 ranking since 1984 a week earlier by knocking off Oklahoma in Dallas, leading some to wonder how the Longhorns would handle the top spot.

You really think so? I mean, he's gonna throw for a shit ton of yards but hasn't won a damn thing. He's a perfect candidate for Peter King's Hall of Very Good.

 

Just like he did at Georgia. And why they would start each year ranked in the top 10 only to be exposed. He has a good arm, and should be proud of making it to the NFL. But in truth nothing really special even when complimented with better then average skill players.
