Some trivia..

1)  Who are the ONLY 3 college football teams to beat a BCS National Champion in the last 3 years?

Interesting fact: only one of those schools still has their head coach that beat the BCS NC. 


2)  Who are the ONLY 2 Coaches to beat a BCS National Champion in the last 3 years?

IDK about Texas winning.  Texas started off strong, but adrenaline only lasts a little while.  Bama slept walked during most of the 2nd half after jumping on Texas 24-6 at the half. 

Regardless, I hate that McCoy got injured.  Hate is for him.  Hate it for Texas.  Hate it for Alabama.  And hate it for all the viewers.

"playing against a quarterback that might not even get PT on a bottom-dwelling MAC team"

He led them to more points that FLORIDA SCORED ON BAMA..... A true frosh thrown to the wolves, puts 21 on bama, and is a fluke pick 6 and pickup a blitzing LB away from winning a national title game..... you need to tune down the Hook'em hate and open your flippin eyes.... that kid is gonna be the next good one at Austin..... and i'm not even a texas fan, just a human being with eyes....  a bottom dwelling MAC team.... wow...

Anyway that really turned out to be a better game than i thought. Like was said before, if Gilbert got any help from his WR besides Shipley Texas pulls of the upset. Saban acted like he didn't know what to do at times. Taking the opening kickoff, the fake punt, the forcing of the passing game early.... i really wasn't following what he was trying to do. And i gotta think if McCoy doesn't go down, Bama wouldnt been down a quick 14 and in a serious dogfight. Maybe that woulda settled him down, but it just looked to me like he was trying to hard instead of just coaching his style at the start....

Texas D really came up big in the 2nd half. People were ripping them for not facing a big running team all year and how alabama ran all over them, but i'm sorry NO TEAM is gonna consistently stop Ingram, Richardson, and even their 3rd back is a starter on most teams. 

For looked like it was gonna be a yawner Texas sure fought hard and gained alot of respect from me.

As for you husker fans calling out the sec, i think you need to find an offense before you start talking.  You need an O like my Irish need a D. Which is why i keep my mouth shut.  Besides the SEC is on a 4 yr streak. They may have a fight in lincoln but theyd smoke you in Tuscaloosa.
