Texas is now paying the price of keeping Colt McCoy in blowout games to run up statistics rather than letting the backup quarterbacks play and get experience.
The hell you say we can’t. I’ve been waitng since Jan1, 1065 to beat texas.
It’s a shame about McCoy, though. God b;ess him.
Well if Sam Bradford was healthy, does Texas even sniff the Championship game? Them’s the breaks.
Since the year 1065? Damn, that’s a long time!
Poor guy. Not returning to the game...
Yeah. Too bad about Bradford and McCoy, and too bad about Tebow’s concussion too.
also...you take a terrible risk running the option when you don’t have a capable backup. Texas was moving down the field before Mack Brown called the option. It made little sense when he called it...it made less sense when you saw the backup QB for Texas.

TCU had the best yards per game defense. Click each category and it will put them in order.
Well, it feels that long. Of course, I meant 1965
Thank GOD! Somebody bothers to catch a pass!
Yeah ... I swear I saw them on top of the list on total defense just yesterday. Must’ve read something wrong.
Oh I’m not knocking Bama, don’t get me wrong. They are my number three favorite team. I said on my Heisman thread that Ingram was my pick if McCoy didn’t get it. I was thrilled for Ingram when he won.
There’s no comparison tonight, though. A team at full strength playing a shellshocked team with a frosh at the helm. Too bad TX defense isn’t helping things...
Back up center and QB. Texas pulls this rabbit out of the hat they will become gods...
You mean WE are sponsoring this game?? I’m so proud...sniff.
It’s an anti-climatic finish to the season with mcCoy injured. But, like someone else said, if Sam Bradford stayed healthy the entire season plays out differently.
Congrats to Alabama.
This is why they went out and got Saban.
That streaker was suffering from shrinkage!

One thing I’ll say — these announcers are very annoying.
Just the one that talks all the time like he could coach a team.
The one that kept saying that the freshman QB had to take some chances, and then when he did and threw two interceptions, said the coach was stupid for taking chances with a freshman QB.
Well, this is one way to get a new QB experience, I suppose.
