It kind of was a gimme pick. Who the fuck really thought that Texas had a chance?

Same can be said for Colt

 

[jimbo2fly]

Holy thread necromancy, Batman!

I was in my second Iraq tour during that game, winning an avatar bet against an ESPN poster ... forget who.

 

[Texas Jefe]

damn I don't remember much of that game, as I was literally dying but just had not gotten the official word yet.

After a long year, had a surgery and now I'm fine. Thankfully I don't remember a whole lot about the game, other than when Colt went out, I stormed out of the room and went into our walk-in closet and sat down until I cooled off.

True story: Saban in the locker room after the game went off on the team for letting up in the 2nd half. Won a National Championship - pissed off because they let up.

Good god Bino, you're grabbing this offseason by the short and curlies

Dat shovel pass doe

I really did not think that was bad. Brutal result, but in theory that is a very safe play to run. Felt like fans were bitching about the result, not the call/

I wonder if Gilbert stayed if he would have done better. He wasn't that bad at SMU...all things considered...

I don't think so.

Though I liked the guy, and he was a good player, he just seemed to implode at times. Guess he would have been no worse than we've had the past five years though, so it's all a wash. I mean, we've nothing but implosions since.

its funny how hard it is to find a QB, when the OL is bad.
