I think a lot of us saw this one coming, especially after the offensive debacle last night (thanks, GD). No reason to panic about the polls, we've got our first ranked team next weekend in Dallas, and it's a rivalry game. If we come out and perform on all fronts Saturday, the national confidence will return. The gauntlet awaits...and the hunt for Orange October begins.

A Good Thing

To be perfectly honest I think this is the best thing that could have happened to our longhorns. I hope they put a poster of this on every inch of the locker room.

You can't spell COCKSUCKER without OU.

agree

Texas should drop after last night, but they will have their chance to redeem themselves the next few weeks.

Agree as well that this is for the best

The only time I have felt like we looked worthy of the #2 ranking was the UTEP game. I love this team but they have not been living up to the hype. Being undefeated and the #3 team in the country hardly takes the target off our backs, but I think it alleviates some of the pressure.

I would have to say that the humor was lost, I guess.

Allow me to expound

SEC: noun.
def.: Abbreviation for Southeastern Conference
1. a conference of college football in the United States characterized by excellent defenses, questionable offenses, and an overenthusiastic, downright annoying fanbase. SEC fans proclaim dominance over other football conferences, namely the Big 12 Conference, as the result of occasional victory over the lesser teams of other conferences (see: Arky vs. Aggies).

2. A loud, obnoxious guttural cry issued by intoxicated individuals from states in the Gulf Coast Region of the United States, with the exclusion of Texas.

pronounced: ESS!!! EEE!!! SEE!!!!
