Workmanlike effort....

This was never really in doubt.

WVU cannot run the ball.

Texas ran the ball at will pretty easily.

It was just a matter of time before their passing game made mistakes.

Texas was content to let them throw and wait for the mistakes.
30 pts still way tpp many. That will not beat OU. Let's hope we get that fixed

WVU scored 2 meaningless TDS late versus a prevent defense/Texas deep reserves in the late embers of the game.
Both were in the last 5 minutes when Texas was up 3 touchdowns and simply looking to avoid injuries.

When the game was in doubt in the 2nd/3rd quarters, the Texas defense dominated.
WVU could not move the ball at all and turned it over.

Heck, they even held WVU to a 2 yard drive, when they started at the Texas 15.

The defense played really well today.
I dont read too much into late desperation drives versus prevent reserve players.

Good points and well taken. Go Horns.

Texas now has:

REGULAR SEASON SCOREBOARD versus all 9 Big 12 teams + Texas A&M + Nebraska + Missouri + Colorado

That is the Tiger Slam of being 13-0 versus all your Big 12 rivals in the last regular season meetings

It has been a long while since Texas had all 13 heads on the Wall at the 40 acres at the same time.

Time to crack open a Lone Star Beer!!

Never in doubt? You had 4 picks and 3 of got you inside our 25 yard line yet still you only won by 11. We had 2 garbage time touchdowns and you had 1. We missed 2 field goals and you missed one. So you ether didn’t watch the game or are just pretending to be stupid because if Kendall doesn’t throw stupid passes you likely lose.

You guise could pour all the beers into your last Big XII Trophy, like a punchbowl! I mean, you'll have to dust and clean it pretty good first as its been sitting on that sparsely populated shelf for 10 years.

I do too, its going to be a rough year this year and prob next but long term I like him.

Next year might not be so bad. The team is young but gaining experience. Another 2 OOC P5 sure but both look like they can be winnable. Plus 5 home conference games.

But yeah, this year will certainly be tough. I’m still holding out hope for 6 wins but we almost certainly need to win Saturday.
