Same here, though I was still writhing in pain from the Tennessee debacle and didn't get to see much of the game.

Anyway, I have to give a Whoop! to the t-sips (as much as I hate to).

I missed that! Vince Young was unbelievable the way he slipped in those TDs.

I've never really liked flashing the "666" sign everywhere you go.

I believe it is the sign of the cuckold. I know that "putting the horns on" a man means sleeping with his wife. Though she does it as well when she sleeps with another man.

Did the Mich. players go for Vince Youngs nuts the few times they finally got him on the ground or was I imagining things?

I know that I saw a direct hit once. Had Vince bent over for a few minutes, and it was obviously a deliberate slap in the nads. Probably just pissed him off. If he gets the passing game down with some good receivers next year, the Heisman could be a lock.

Kirk Ferentz gets it done every year.

I'm a displaced Longhorn fan living in Iowa, and I have nothing but respect for Ferentz. Getting what he did from his team this year after being down to his 5th string walkon running back is nothing short of amazing.

They played Alabama.

No one ran on 'Bama all year and the Gophers carved 'em up for just shy of 300 yds rushing.

But two dropped TD passes and 11 penalties by the Gophers helped keep 'Bama in the game 'til the end.

The Music City Bowl wasn't quite where the Gophers thought they'd be at the start of this season...but all things considered, it's better than sitting home.

Being of Italian ancestry, the sign of the horns means something a bit more emasculating that a football victory.

True. Somebody should also tell our "A-OK" astronauts not to visit Brazil.

Fortunately not all of these folks are UT fans. You'll notice that some have an extended thumb, which if remember correctly is Hawaiian for Aloha....or something to that effect....used most often by the ultra-cool LLLs....ugh!

A true Longhorn knows that the thumb is tucked in when flashing the Hook'em Horns......

GREAT GAME!!!!
