Well geez, darn those Longhorns for rebuilding I guess.
Not to be a pain in the ass, but for the past 10 years all I heard from Longhorn fans is how they just reload, not rebuild.
Like who? The teams sitting on the outside of the top 25 with the same records have much less of an argument. Stop hating.
Exactly. Texas is ranked on cache, not results on the field.
He's asking you to name all these teams with the same record that deserve to be ranked ahead of Texas.....I'd love to see that list.
You act like barely being ranked in the top 25 is some huge deal or honor. That's a far cry from what Texas used to be used to.
Cincinnati with losses to Tennessee and WV
WV with losses to LSU, Syracuse and Louisville
GT with losses to Virginia, Miami, VT
Virginia with losses to NC, Southern Miss, NC St
Which of these 2 or 3 loss teams should be ahead of UT again? Honestly the best case you could make is Baylor but they lost to Iowa St and had to beat Kansas in OT. BYU lost to us, got destroyed by Utah, and lost to TCU. Tulsa has all 3 of their losses coming against top 10 teams, but they haven't even beat a team as good as BYU.

Georgia Tech, Arkansas State, Virginia, Cincinnati, Rutgers, West Virginia, Tulsa, Ohio, TCU, Northern Illinois, and Louisiana-Lafayette. All have the same or better records and are in contention to win their respective conferences and/or have wins over ranked teams.
Texas may be a big deal in Texas, but everywhere else, you're just another perennially good team having two bad seasons.
It's not all about losses. Look at the wins some of those teams have as well.
Wins still count more than who you lost to; many of those teams have more than 2 wins over teams with winning records, which is exactly how many Texas has. I get it, you're defending your team, but this year I just don't think Texas deserves national recognition over the little guys this year after having a losing record.

Texas pays for their votes, just like everything else.
Yet the fans want us to believe the most profitable program in the nation doesn't pay for anything and everything they can get their hands on.
