Texas vs Texas Tech open thread

I thought this was going to be in HD this week.

That’s it, it’s time to burn ABC’s headquarters to the ground.

Wow, Derry made a good play.

it took 10 games, but, huzzah, a running game.

Shipely pulls a Baryshnikov and gets a toe in for 6 points. What will UT do with this lead? Are we doomed to lose now that we’ve scored first?

Ah, Bobino blows his coverage to give up a 28 yard gain on 1st and 20. There’s the linebackers we all know and love.

Hills leg broken

Someone is going to get a steal in about the 4th round this spring.

McGee was damned close there. Needed to get his shoulders just a little lower.

Why does Akina continually blitz Bobino right into the line?

And for some reason we have Kindle playing the deep zone in back of the end zone…

I love that call!!!

Good to see the team showed up today before the 4th quarter.

TD by McCoy on QB sneak.

where did this staff come from? That’s great coaching.

And another 6 for jc. This patchwork line is playing excellent football.

Charles has 16 carries for 158 yards with 8 minutes left in the 1st half.

Kindle makes nice play on shuttle pass.

Jamaal may have to run for 300 to overcome Akina

Colt’s gotta be more decisive there. Time for the D to wipe that stupid smile off Harrell’s face.

It’s ridiculous how bad our linebackers are at playing zone. Killebrew had a receiver sitting down in his route right next to him and never moved to cover him.

With our hosses up front, why the hell can’t we get pressure on Graham?

Finally!

For fuck’s sake. Maybe cover the middle of the field.

Our blitzes are hidden as well as Britney’s vagina.

i need to start drinking more

We suck at blocking for our screens.

Horrible horrible pass by McCoy.

step away for 10 minutes and it’s a game again…

These announcers are really harping on the Colt-Shipley roommate thing. In a creepy, “life partners” sort of way.

They have to quite referring to Harrell’s numbers as amazing. What’s amazing about it at this point? It’s what they do. They handed off what, 5 times? 30% of his passes are basically long hand offs anyway.

I missed it, when happened to Jamaal?

“air jordan”

McCoy almost scratched on that shotput…errr throw. Oh well, whatever works.

Will the T Tech Garden Gnomes start dropping passes?

It’s even dumber when those linebackers include Bobino, Derry, and Killebrew.

Even though it was a trap, it was a ridculous trap. How does he even make that play close?

Akina just can’t help himself. Wonder if he realizes that our one sack came on a standard rush.

Stop him before he blitzes again!!

That’s a bad call! ARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

McGee looks better out of the gun.

Don’t look now, but Ohio State is going down.

Illinois fans better walk quickly to their cars.

Quick, turn over to ESPN and watch Ron Zook cry!!

If we blow this lead Akina needs to be drawn and quartered.

Quan is the MAN

COLT F’N MCCOY!

Hell, let’s put Colt in the I.

Juice Williams did a Colt during the post-game invterview (he dodged a buick on fire thrown by a osu buck-sociopath)and not to be outdone McCoy did a Juice on a 22 yd td draw.

Russia just took Nate in the first round of the circus highwire supplamental draf.

Akina is fucking awful.

Eleven games into the season, GD finally gets the offense clicking for an entire game, albeit against another abysmal defense. His apologists will be out in full-force, quoting yardage and scoring statistics that “prove” Mack’s loyalty is well-placed.

Fortunately, being able to run the ball and consume clock kept Tech’s offense off the field long enough that our defense wasn’t able to lose it for us. Annual defensive suckage at The University of (By God) Texas is monumentally depressing. And this defense sucks worse than most.

But Mack’s all-important “10-Win Season” is now well within reach. Aggy is horrible. If we manage to lose at Pyle, we’ll draw an easier bowl. We could still manage to back into a BCS at-large bid, with enough help. So the 10-win streak will continue, and once it’s secured, we’ll be saddled with the same inept staff, next year. Isn’t that special?

Who are we? We’re Texas! Just win 10, baby!

Hell, I’m missing Bobby Jack Wright. We could sure use a defense like the ‘97 Horns had.

Actual NFL talent like Aaron Ross, Michael Griffin, and Tarell Brown?

Mike Leach has officially “Jumped the Shark”

His 10-minute tirade against Randy Christal’s officiating crew last night after the game wasn’t just weird, it was wrong. He railed against four particular plays, all of which were backed up by instant replay, and then he claimed that instant replay is just a boy’s club network to back up the incompetent refs to begin with.

The dude is a lawyer and must have known what he was doing would cost him a lot of money, hell it might even get him suspended.

The fact that he was wrong about the particulars that pissed him off makes it even more bizarre.

“I don’t think it should take an abundance of NFL talent at every position to field a non-shitty defense.”

Ahem Kansas Ahem.

Randy Christal has been doing Texas games for 20 years. Baseball and football. I can remember some baseball games he worked when the Wild Bunch was ready to storm the field and choke him. For years when he showed up behind the plate it was “Uh oh, Christal is working the game.”

Even if true, this wasn’t the game to draw a line in the sand(aggie). Replay clearly showed the calls were correct.

echeese sez: “Akina’s way better than Carl Reese ever was. Greg Davis’ offense had to bail out Carl Reese in every game, including the ‘04 loss to OU.”

Well, today he has decided to argue that Carl Reese’s defenses were crap and that Reese was an average OC, as evidenced by Reese’s defense turning the ball over four times against Colorado in ‘01. Apparently, the ‘01 defense wasn’t a good defense because it couldn’t stop Colorado from intercepting Chris Simms.
