You can try
It works sometimes…
the only reason...
John parker wilson is good is because he has a killer Oline… other then that…I hate bama
Worst On Sides Kick ever
Kentucky kicker just drilled the ball out of bounds. No one touched it.
--AW--
The SEC
I live in Georgia…and all I hear about is the STUPID SEC…It’s like freakin biggetry…I would love to see Georgia go up against us or OU or even Mizzou
Predictions?
I’m going to give Colorado their due.
52-11
am i getting my clocked cleaned
in pickums this week. Icccck.
The urnial
That place looks like my toilet after a Chevas night.
3 and out!! Jigaa
Johnson gets the start at RB
and drops the swing pass.
im glad CJ is starting...
but not so much at the expense of the passes being completed…
If You See Kay, Oh You
Thats a legit pass
The ball and the QB have to be across the line. Right?
WHAT!
I cannot believe the play stands.
Hook ’Em!
i'll take it.
i’d rather have saved it for next week
what happened?

Colt went to run left, threw as he was at the LOS
complete to Oggy in open, he went rest of the way.
mccoy flipped
to ogbonnaya while scrambling RIGHT at line of scrimmage. i gather most us t hink he was PAST the line. TD stands
Awesome, thanks ya'll

keep bugging us
for play details since you have no video. and thank you, sir, from a VN guy
For the pass, your entire body has to be over the line of scrimmage.
His foot was still behind the line.

As the announcer said he missed his first FG last week,
CU kicker could not get his leg over.
kirk1005:
colorado hit long pass to DScott off a lateral, then missed 36-yd FG.
Orakpo
Damn impressive that he was step for step on that long pass. Sucks that he was defending, but damn impressive
um, not on the version I watched

under thrown ball, 50 yards across the field

The D is fired up.
After 4.25 games you can really start to see the impact Will Muschamp has had on this defense compared to last season. Phenomenal job and a stark change in attitude.
hey thanks edsp
I am trying to keep up with it on espn.com and foxsports.com, but neither are even close to the reaction time of you guys.

Okay. I will stop with the IM observations.

I am genuinely excited by this team. Colt is making me a believer. So impressive.

I can definitely say
There were 2 options on that punt return. There was no possible return, only catch the fair catch punt, or drop the fair catch punt. I am glad we have someone who catches it and doesn’t fumble.
Johnson unbelieveable
He sprung Colt for that run by picking up the outside rusher.

That was tbe post I had written up for halftime because that’s how I felt this game was going. This worries me slightly. Here’s the first time this season we find out how our defense really is.

a bit of a warning on the defense . . ..
i doubt Hogs or Buffs have EVEN ONE OL who could start for sooners
Not the double tight
We cannot open holes and we do not have the back who can the hole. Where’s Fozzy?
I've campaigned for a Muschamp cam at the very least
There should be a small window in the corner of the screen with Muschamp on at all times.
some point we have to line up and be able to run it down their throats
Perhaps the most recognizable mascot in sports, and certainly the toughest looking, Bevo is a fixture
Yeah, but going double tight on obvious running downs only isn't the only answer
We need to run some bootlegs and roll-outs out of that formation to at least try and keep the D honest. Every time they have used that formation, they have run it up the middle. CU is on that.
disappointing offensive series
we’re gonna need a real running game eventually
Is that like a small boot?

PS
I saw Rashad Bobino in my class room, as well as Justin Mason, Matt Hill, and Alexis Wangmene while picking up my OU ticket. That was one of the greatest days of my life.
Leach actually did that...
Between quarters some student nailed a 35 yarder for a free Chick Fil A sandwich or some nonsense, but he hit it good, so Leach found him and gave him a tryout because their kicker has been inconsistent.

Silver lining view
Playing somebody that can actually hit, can actually make a few plays, has to help the Longhorns given what lies ahead.
Double tight is not the answer
Johnson get stopped.
It's not. GD goes from one extreme to the other. From Spread with sideways running lanes
to the double-tight which is only really effective in short yardage situations.

The three and out series looked dumb
The two sacks should not have happened. Still, I will take 21-0 in Boulder.
I’m mostly disappointed with the McCoy interception, dropped pass(es), and incompletions. Colorado’s of course the best defense Texas has faced so far, but they should still be able to perform with nearly the same efficiency as in other games. That said, I think they’re still rolling toward a very good finish!
The "Austin" commercial
Seeing that, even being in Dallas, makes me miss home bad. Indeed.com, here I come! Hook’em
Hook'em
excellent road first half
at least the score. there are some areas of concern. the pick. the drops. the lack of a running game. the mid-second quarter lull. But, 21-0 at half in Boulder is something I can certainly live with. And this defense could be come dominant.
Fozzy
We would probably have another 7 hung on them at this point. Oh well, Colt looks strong and Fozzy will be around for a whuuulie. A whuuulie? What is that? That’s for the Family Guy fans out there.
Hook'em
We wont know what we have in Fozzy until he plays
Fact is he is not on the field again and speculation is worthless
