I know the system is screwed. However, Texas did play three ranked teams.

09/04    North Texas       ( 71 7-4  )   65- 0
09/11 at Arkansas          ( 39 5-6  )   22-20
09/25    Rice              ( 97 3-8  )   35-13
10/02    Baylor            ( 81 3-8  )   44-14 
10/09 vs Oklahoma          (  2 12-0 )    0-12 (Dallas TX) 
10/16    Missouri          ( 64 5-6  )   28-20 
10/23 at Texas Tech        ( 21 7-4  )   51-21 
10/30 at Colorado          ( 29 7-5  )   31- 7 
11/06    Oklahoma St       ( 20 7-4  )   56-35 
11/13 at Kansas            ( 54 4-7  )   27-23 
11/26    Texas A&M         ( 15 7-4  )   26-13  
01/01 vs Michigan          ( 18 9-2  )         (Pasadena CA)

That makes #5 Texas 3-1-1 against the top 21. Five of six Big 12 south teams rank among those top 21.

I miss the SWC (Royal and Broyles, Teaff, Bellard, Stallings etc.)and knew several of the 69' Texas players. The South Big 12 and the SEC are equal IMHO this year. Miami and FSU are having off years but they are never off for more than a couple of years. Auburn is getting the shaft but Oklahoma and USC will be an eye opener as to who is for real. I would bet on another co-championship if Auburn thrashes Va Tech and the National Championship game is a snoozer.
