Go Pokes!
With or without Robinson, the Pokes need to steamroll CU tonight. We need to keep the only strong win on our resume.
Hook'em!!
Go Pokes indeed...
for the reason you mentioned and the fact that my girlfriend is an alum…it is better for me when the pokes win.

if OSU loses we clinch the south
go buffs.
don’t say its a foregone conclusion because we got more football to play.
Maybe he can switch with Mangino
Hook'em!!

Was that the slowest return for TD ever???

Attention Fox Sports...
You see how ESPN cut away from the replay to show the live action? Yes, that is how you do it.

+1
I thought I was the only one who would get annoyed by that.

Texas = Big 12 South Champs
if Colorado wins Texas is the Big 12 South Champs, so why wouldn’t everybody be rooting for the buffs.
I'm watching the game on justin.tv and a cu ad was interrupted...
“At the University of Colorado…Del Taco would like to give you the bird”
The game is on ESPN 360
If your provider doesn’t give you access, you can have a friend set up a log in that will give you access.
This could hurt
the Texas strength of schedule. Probably not enough to matter, but it’s something the media may pick up on with any “TCU is better than Texas” arguments. Which would be irritating, if ultimately inconsequential.
Yeah I thought about that
maybe in the computers it will even out. In all the resume rankings, it will hurt, since OSU is the best win for Texas. Maybe that would sway a few voters to drop Texas behind TCU in the human polls. I don’t know, this stuff makes my mind hurt, so I normally avoid it. If Texas takes care of business the next two games I’m sure everything will be fine.

I don't think this game matters
that much. I’d be stunned if Texas wins out that they don’t find themselves playing in Pasadena.
That being said, I don’t think the voters have fully factored in how poor the Big XII is this season and how relatively weak Texas’ schedule is. The fact TCU has a slightly better schedule right now according to Sagarin speaks volumes about the Big XII.
OSU is going to need some breaks.....fast, if they expect to win
Can't get enough of that cowbell !!!

Oh my
Just got back to my TV. If the Pokes blow this, we’re gonna hear all about what a nancy schedule we’ve faced…
You ain't hurt.
Who would have thought their backup QB's are so bad
I know Zac Robinson was valuable to them, but dang.

We're already hearing it
And with that said CU takes the lead
Ugly Ugly game
JD’s like, "you want some fucking pitching? Here’s all the pitching you can stand. Now choke on it, bitches!"- RCCook
I'm watching the Dolphins game as well right now
and I’ve found that the Texas offense has given me an acute appreciation of a four-yard gain on the ground.
Colorado leads the turnover battle four to zero, and they're winning by four
Basically, if Okie State was playing competently, they’d be winning by two scores.

We want OSU to win....they are our quality win

That's the play
that might put the final nail in Dan Hawkins’ coffin. Two guys blitz and nobody peels off to cover the back.
That was an unbelievable TD
Kid had to slow down and then speed up and not get caught from behind.
If Zac Robinson doesn't get back for the OU game
Pokes are gonna get decimated.
THIS IS DIVISION 1 FOOTBALL!!!!!
Hook'em!!

Cade has got to be pissed
He plays like complete crap and now Weeden has come in and plays like a badass. Is Weeden eligible next year? If so, Cade better watch his back.
Neither team is making the Big 12 look good
Face it Texas is the Big 12

I personally didn't agree with the call
But I thought it was a defensible decision for Belichek.
by TheElusiveShadow on Nov 19, 2009 9:58 PM CST up reply actions
I'm the opposite
You punt from your own 28 every time, especially on 4th and 2. Their 40 with a chance to put the game away, that’s defensible IMO
Put the ball in the hands of his best player
to ice the game. Tough to argue with that. I thought the decision was pretty close to 50-50 from a statistical perspective.
We need at least ONE opponent in the top 25
Otherwise it’s just going to be embarassing. We’ll have to listen to those TCU mouthbreathers all December.
So?
First off, do you think OSU is going to beat Oklahoma? Based on this game (and I’m aware of the lack of Zac Robinson) they are going to get torched and probably drop to around 20 or so.
Secondly, who gives a crap? I don’t think the chance of TCU passing Texas (provided both win out) is zero, but it’s pretty damn close. Let them talk and enjoy the party in Tempe.
I don't care what TCU fans say
They’ve got a winless New Mexico as well as an FCS team on their schedule. Sure our SOS is much weaker compared to last year but at least we didn’t schedule someone like Texas State.
Snyder is the only guy who could possibly steal the award from Mack...IF Snyder wins the North.
The media never like obvious choices.
