That game was never in doubt. They went on a 15 play drive in the 4th quarter of all runs and burned up 9 minute's of clock to ice the damn game. Ran it right down their ****ing throats and took their will to compete. 3 score win against a team who has played a lot of good teams close. We’re 10-1 for the 2nd straight season. What the **** else could you ask for???
I'll tell you.
I grew up playing for a team that had coaches that preached the same phrase-
"If you take care of the little things, the big things take care of themselves."
It's been 15 years since Texas has had a shot to win it all. We all suffered through some of the DUMBEST mistakes in Texas football history.
We came close last year but couldn't run the damn football against Washington when we needed to.
When I watch us make mental errors like jumping offside- or run a 6 yard route on 3rd down when we need 7 yards- it's just compounds what I learned years ago- if you take care of the little things, the big things take care of themselves.
When you put the fvcking football on the ground 5 times in one game- by ANY measure- that's unacceptable.
You can't beat aggy putting the ball on thr ground 5 times. You sure as sh!t can't beat Georgia or Oregon.
Our best 1st half by far was against Florida. It was a damn near flawless half of football.
We aren't playing great 2nd half football right now.
You realize we've only scored 21 and 28 points in two 2nd half games this year?
Colorado St and Miss st.
I expect to see us play a 1st half like Florida and a 2nd half like Colorado st- but we haven't yet.
That's what it's going to take to win it all.
