Texas @ TCU

Strong will be fired. AD gone and getting housed by 65 to what they feel is an inferior school will not sit well. Plus lots of grumbling already from some big boosters.
 
How did this game get the "Big" Fox slot when WVU vs OU has two ranked teams playing?

Did Fox expect a miracle from the Cows today?
 
Agree....do not like Texas football, but they are the kind of team that will be licking their chops to get us. If Heard just runs wildcat all day long, they beat us 28 or 35 to 17 or such. We throw screens.
 
How long before Texas blames the lack of wins and recruiting on being in the Big 12 conference.
 
Stadium is nearly empty at the end of the game. Was it filled with Longhorn fans?

Probably...

1. Texas: Beyond the fact that Texas is not very good at offense or defense, let’s talk about their special teams for a moment. Any Texas fan who has the stomach for a field goal or punting attempt without closing their eyes by this point deserves free season tickets next year (plenty will be available).

Texas is bad at kicking field goals (and extra points for that matter), bad at long snapping and bad at punting. Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln? After a missed extra point against Cal cost Texas a chance at overtime and a shanked punt helped give Oklahoma State a victory last week, you’d think it couldn't get worse. Then Texas went and sailed a snap over its punter’s head for a safety and put the ensuing free kick out of bounds, aiding and abetting TCU’s early 16-0 lead.
Meanwhile, kicker Nick Rose went 0-for-2 on field goals to complete the miserable performance. Though it's unlikely those miscues made a difference in the outcome of the game, it’s continuing a trend that should not happen in a well-run football organization. Texas, quite simply, looks like it does not know what its doing in the special teams phase. And given its shortcomings in other areas, its ineptitude here qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment.

The southern white rock yard otherwise known as Austin is starting to stink all the way north to Ames. Wonder if those rich texans will make the drive to Ames.

Strong deserves some of the blame, but you're delusional if you think they are going to get rid of Strong a month into his second season. He's had to basically start the program over from scratch.

Maybe he screwed that up. Kicked too many players off the team and is playing with the third string.
 
Strong was a horrid hire, period, without doubt. Gary said before the game, "We've beat better with less." That says all that needs saying about UT and their current coach. And brings the wonder if they ever talked with Patterson about moving to Austin? Probably not.
