Game Thread: Alamo Bowl: Texas vs. Oregon

and why don't you admit you made a dumb, flip ass comment...like a 3rd grader would....

I was serious I thought it was cosmetic and if so it is an easy fix. One of my best friends in high school had a similar procedure when he was 16 and they felt he had grown enough to do the surgery. Until then caught a lot of crap from people who didn't know him.

I guess I get that....next year we will hear from the PAC 12 guys hp0ow they beat up texS teams. Seems not right. Also they will be recruiting texas players. We get thatnhere in fl as it seems l7ke the entire east coast is down here recruiting.

Yeah, everyone recruits Texas, just like Florida.

never had a problem with you, either, but it is something that strikes close to home as my daughter is afflicted with scleroderma. I apologize for my comments.

Well i apologize too wheat. I said some things about colt as well and i'm sorry if i offended you.

It is just one of those years.


THanks to weird seeding the PAC and Big 12 almost never sync up correctly.


Sometimes the Big 12 gets easy matches. Sometimes the PAC-12 gets easy matches.


They never seem to both get two teams in BCS bowl games.


And that always produces mismatches for one league.


This year it happens to be the Big 12 with bad matchups.


#10 Oregon versus unranked Texas
PAC-12 South champion ASU versus a 7 win Texas Tech

Mmmmm..... I love it when you talk dirty ET

 

[Texas Jefe]

OKLAHOMA screwed things up.
There is that "Champions Bowl" thing...and OU supposedly travels well.


OKLAHOMA probably did not deserve the BCS bid.
That made things mucked up in the reality of bowl spacing.


So, the entire Big 12 is playing insanely bad mismatches.


OU should be in the Cotton.
Oklahoma State should be playing Oregon in this game.
Texas should have been playing Michigan in the Wild Wings Bowl.
Kansas State should be playing ASU.
Texas Tech should be playing another bowl tie-in altogether.

Had Texas taken care of business and beaten BU, UT would've been in the Fiesta facing UCF.
OU would've matched up better with any of the B12 bowl opponents than Bama, but to be great, you have to beat great teams. Doubtful we do this, but can't win sitting at home watching.

From another perspective, UT fvcked it all up by not taking care of BU. BU would've fared much better v. Ore imo. I'm pretty sure KSU and TT are quite happy with the matchups they had. So far, only Texas has lost from the B12. Most likely OU joins you. I think Okie lt has a decent chance and BU a good chance of winning theirs. Overall, the B12 matchups do look scary on paper, but TT showed us last night that sheer determination goes a long way in overcoming adversity. Bowl season is the only time I get homer-ie for the B12, so yeah.

Just to think... if we would have played one more good half of football... it could be the Longhorns getting their asses kicked by UCF. good times.
