Fiesta Bowl Second Half Thread

Pb6_tiny by PB @ BON on in Football Comment 900 comments

It must be maddening to be an Ohio State fan. A perfect half, accomplishing all Jim Tressel hoped for. And that means a 6-3 halftime lead. 

If they do it again in the second half, they win. But there's zero margin for error.

Texas has been a great second half team most of the year. One more time, please...

You know, I came into this game not concerned. Right now, I’m very concerned. I have faith that Muschamp is already adjusting. I’m scared Greg won’t. We need to make the big plays. And I think that comes with the hurry up.

What the heqq has happened to the Longhorns?

Does anyone know where the team we watched all season has gone? Did you see that weak ass pass Colt threw?

Somebody forgot 6 a.m. practices and accountability. Gee whiz, the apathetic longhorns are back, you know those that don’t execute, make critical mental errors at critical times and find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Somebody somewhere got complacent….

Agreed.

They played that first half flatter than the city of Lubbock…
