Game Thread: Alamo Bowl: Texas vs. Oregon

[Hornsstampede2.0]

16 offensive points allowed through 3 quarters....


Come on OFFENSE. The defense is doing their job making Oregon "team field goal."


The Ducks routinely drop 50 points. You cannot expect the defense to keep holding up forever.

The defense is fine for Texas....offense seems to be their Achilles heel

Though they can run on the Ducks, so now lets see if they figured that out.

 

[bamafan4evr12]

Yes. At Texas we put in lesser scholarship QBs and walk ons as main backups.

Gawd you dunces must not be able to hear yourselves.

If the back up is so much better though, or McCoy is so awful, why not put the back up in for the rest of the year? Since his RS has already been burned.

Yeah it'll be interesting to see what the play calling is like this first drive since Oregon was held to 3

Run the ball again and again and again. Come on Texas.

Nice pass play for a gain of one.

That won't cut it. Now they face third and long and an obvious pass play.

Could write the script on this.

"Run the ball" says Mack before the half.

 

[TexasMan]

Umm... Closer to two quarters than 3.

Just sayin.

News flash: Texas' offense is atrocious!

 

[HuskerOC]

They had no choice. They did not have a backup quarterback at the time.


And if Swopes really is the second coming, he is not sticking around more than 3 years anyhow.

So Swoopes is the 2nd coming of Vince Young?

Vince Young, one of the greatest players in Texas High School Football history that RS at Texas because Chris Simms Senior year and Chance Mock was a solid backup. You mean that 2nd coming of Vince Young?

 

[Wild Turkey]

Is it me or was that protection not that bad and McCoy stepped into that sack?

Swoops is not better. He's not good at all, yet, in fact. Don't let these McCoy haters get it twisted.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Don't blame the protection.
He was not under duress at all.
He took off half-assed and could not commit to a decision.
Either run with authority or stay in the pocket.


That should be his last offensive play as a Longhorn.

 

[starbigd]

Burning Swoopes shirt and NOT PLAYING him was the bonehead move of the year.

Anyone stupid enough to argue this does not understand the concept of football. Don't waste your time explaining basic concepts to morons.

Either you get it, or you don't.

 

[TexasMan]

Maybe this game is Mack Brown's middle finger to UT.

If there was another game on, this is when i would switch channels
