Texas longhorns

That possession made me sick my friends!

Teaser my A**

Is it sad to anyone else that I took this game in a 13 point teaser and am still not gonna cover? I am a Die Hard UT fan, and knew this spread looked funny. That being said I thought we would at least win by 6... or at the very least win the game. I took the Money line in another 10 teamer and that worries me now too... Little advise folks. Never bet your favorite team lol

Ash missed that wide open receiver on the corner route. He has to make those throws.

Haha that is some good advice. I'm a huge Pats fan and I try to avoid taking their games as much as possible.

At least UT has the ball on the 44 going in! WE WILL SCORE A TD HERE!

Basic penetrating play calling

I have posted it a number of times, Mac Brown is one of my least favorite head coaches in college football, and it is because of his play calling. I have no idea on why he continues to hold his job.

Here is an unbelievable story on this piece of chit!
Mack Brown complains that the Longhorn Network is negatively affecting Texas … really, he did

(US Presswire)It's tough to know where to start with this whopper: Mack Brown, according to Orangebloods.com, said the Longhorn Network is negatively affecting the Longhorns. Yes, the same Longhorn Network that was to provide such a recruiting advantage that the use of high-school highlights on the network had to be banned after conference rivals revolted. The same LHN that gives Texas $15 million per year to pump into its athletic budget. The same network that is such an edge for Texas, it almost tore the Big 12 apart.
This network, Mack Brown insists, is suddenly bad for Texas.
Here's Chip Brown's full story, and it provides a strange glimpse into the mind of a coach that seems to be spending a lot of time worried about things that have nothing to do with his team winning or losing football games.
Brown complains about the time he takes doing interviews with the network. I'm sure he has a lot of obligations to the network, including taping three shows a week. ESPN is playing Texas $300 million (that number is still insane, no matter how many times you read it) over 20 years. That's going to require some extra time from Brown to chat about David Ash's throwing mechanics (I, like almost every other American, doesn't get the LHN, but I'm going to guess there's not much investigative journalism being done on those shows). That comes with the territory. It's worth noting Brown makes more than $5 million per season, even though he is 18-14 over the last three seasons. Texas went 5-7 the year before the Longhorn Network was launched, which is also worth noting.
But here's where Brown's concerns start to border on bizarre, from the Orangebloods.com story:

Brown even said if a player needs to have an ankle taped, the UT medical staff will tape both ankles so anyone watching LHN won't know if a player is injured.

Oh. That seems perfectly logical, and a great allocation of time. I'm sure the training staff loves getting that order. Nothing at all crazy about that.

Consider that Texas's sports information staff keeps an eye on the network to make sure there are no competitive advantages being given away. The practice footage comes from the first eight periods of practice, which are assuredly done in a way to not give out any game-planning information (the first few periods of most college football practices are done on individual drills, the same type of drills every team does). To think that Oklahoma beat Texas 63-21 because of the network - which, again, provides Texas the kind of paycheck every other school dreams of and should allow the Longhorns to hire and retain the best assistants, build great facilities and have a huge recruiting budget - is flat out preposterous. To think that Texas can't tackle anyone this season because Mack Brown has to drive to the network studios to answer some questions is absurd. To think that opponents are winning because of things they pick up on the Longhorn Network - and keep in mind that Texas is having trainers tape healthy ankles to throw off opponents who might be watching the shows, so it's hard to believe any stone is being unturned there - is paranoia at its most extreme.
The whole thing comes off as whining in the worst way, like lottery winners complaining about how much they were taxed.
"I didn't ask for it," Brown said about LHN. "We were given a deal we had no input in."
As Texas safety Kenny Vaccaro told Yahoo! Sports' Eric Adelson, the Longhorns maybe need to get back to playing football and not "worrying about the stuff that you get distracted with at Texas like the Longhorn Network, all the fans, all the glory, Nike and all that stuff." His coach could benefit from that advice.
So, Texas fans, if you're upset your team is tied for fifth place in the Big 12 with a 2-2 mark, you know who to blame, and it's not Mack Brown. Blame the Longhorn Network instead. In fact, show some respect for Brown's meticulousness - if Texas trainers taped only injured ankles for practice, the Longhorns might not have even won those two conference games.

Is Ash the most retarded QB in the BIG 12? Holy sh!t! Texas is lucky to be down 7. WAKE UP!

To answer your question .... YES, and he is showing it again today, which is really sad for you Texas players.

Murray Rothbard · 10-27-12, 01:14 PM

Any little hope I had left just got dashed. Good thing I hedged this game with Indiana 2H fok.

Brutus84 · 10-27-12, 01:14 PM

Wow Ash sucks. Thought I got a steal 2h -10 just hoping for a push now

saints1856 · 10-27-12, 01:20 PM

Texas is going to lose this game. Holy cow. Of all the games in my ML parlay, I figured this was a gimme!

Same here...LOL Unreal!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:24 PM

Only one person to blame for this embarrassment and that is Mac Brown. I am sure the Texas alumni will finally get it together and call for Browns head.

Let's try to get Texas in the endzone for you moneyline backers, starting on this Texas possession!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:27 PM

Yesssssssssssss! Now do something McCoy!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:32 PM

Nice play, now get the fcuking ball in the endzone!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:34 PM

"and he will stroll into the endzone"! Love it!

saints1856 · 10-27-12, 01:34 PM

Tied up! Maybe UT is finally wearing down KU.... Lets hope so

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:35 PM

pokeraddict2012 · 10-27-12, 01:36 PM

texas longhorn spread is over im not even watching it anymore, all the pros saying BLOWOUT, i see nothing but struggling longhorns

A4K · 10-27-12, 01:36 PM

Step 1: Remove the hippie looking QB with the emo haircut.

Step 2: Run the ball with trickeration for a TD.

Step 3: STOP KU and repeat step #2

dymd3z · 10-27-12, 01:37 PM

Lost all hope on this shyty game.. Punded Pitt though so I break even. with my 2 early games

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:37 PM

I will tell you what I would like Texas to do, but Mac Brown is not smart enough to do it, and to incompetent to do it, and that is go to the no huddle offense, as I fully believe it would kill Kansas, as they would be not only get tired, but they would be lost in there calls.

A glimmer of hope. Need UT to break a loooong run and score a TD!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:49 PM

The Longhorns ARE going to get a touchdown!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:50 PM

I think they only have one timeout left.

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:53 PM

They also had time to run the ball so again Mac Browns play calling sucks.

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:56 PM

He completed a pass! WOWWWWWWW!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:57 PM

Give credit where credit is due, GREAT PASS!

NOW!, the big question is can they get it in the endzone!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 01:59 PM

Get that fcuking ball in the endzone!

Urbanwildlife · 10-27-12, 02:00 PM

CONGRATULATIONS Longhorn moneyline players!

FANTASTIC call, pass, and catch!
