There's a time for tackling and a time for stripping. A smart defender knows the difference. If you're the first guy there, get the man with the ball down on the ground. If you're the second guy there, go for the strip. Because not all tackles are successful and because even less strips are successful, the defender has to take the safer course to end the play.

Losing 20-10 in the 3rd(after blowing a 10-7 halftime lead), sloppy tackling, sorry defense, failure to adjust at halftime (again) bump

I was waiting for this thread to show up again tonight; Texas has been playing flat all night -- pathetic.

It's just poor coaching. Great, now we have our players yelling at each other.

What the f***???? We decline a penalty for a 4th and 3??? Take the f'ing penalty and try again from 3rd and 10.

Yep, once again the Horns are poorly prepared mentally in a big game. Young and Mock are both overthrowing.

Declining that penalty should get Mack fired. How idiotic. Instead of 3rd and 9, he declines the penalty and goes for it on 4th and 3. Then has to waste a timeout. And of course not only does the 4th down fail, but an extra 10 yards is given up on the loss. Poor Mack, guess he was suprised that they blitzed(since WSU has only blitzed 90% of the plays tonight.

How about that great Texas special teams play? 4 times now they let WSU down kicks inside the 6.

Nice fumble for a touchdown. Its quite clear which team is better (or rather better coached, better prepared, and better disciplined.)

How about the offensive line. The blocking on 2nd and 10 looked line a feint for an inside screen pass. Unfortunately, it wasn't -- those FIVE wsu rushers simply blew through the line.

Texas needs to defend against the blitz and start getting some points on the board before this becomes a rout.

Well, they took your advice but, unfortunately, they started "getting some points on the board" for the other team. Holding in the end zone -- safety. Turn out the liiiiiights, the party's over...

When it all comes down to it, football is simply a silly waste of time. I hate it

I'll never forget how my brother was really, really hoping that OU would get Mack Brown
as the football coach.

I'll give UT credit, I think they are honest at making their players meet academic
standards that are just not really enforced at other school (well, except
a place like Stanford).

Chin up...every good program has the down time...KSU, OU, heck, even Nebraka!

As this thread started...when Arkansas beat the crap out of them it was obvious to me Texas was highly over rated. Maybe now they'll drop completely out of the top 25 where they should be.

Now I'm just hoping my Hogs beat Mizzou...which is gonna' be rough...and my Vols beat Clemson. I'll be at both games. And of course I hope LSU beats the crap out of OK like that bunch of wheat farmers did.

You think some big bucks, UT boosters might placed calls to Steve Spurier after this pathetic game?

I do.

Sounds to me like the old Head Ball Coach wants no part of coaching anymore, anywhere. Methinks he is headed to the broadcast booth.

Fire the fickle folding fraud that is Mack Brown.

I hear there's a position open in Washington DC.

I think Spurrier is coaching at UT. Not next next year, but 2005.
