Texas 24 Texas Tech 14: Postgame Celebration Thread

I've been telling people, "You'd better get Texas early, because this defense is going to be filthy by November."

We're ahead of schedule.

We've got lots to talk about, lots to be worried about with the offense, but friends... savor this win. It's a huge one, and it was an absolutely beautiful performance by the defense.  Eddie Jones?  Holy wow... Our front four was just brilliant tonight.

Celebrate it like you're in the SEC.  We'll deal with the rest later.

A huge, huge win for Texas tonight on the road to move to 3-0.  Cheers.  And hook 'em!

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Sloppy as hell, but we beat the spread. Our defense is flat unfair.

Yup. This ain't Mike Leach's TT offense, that's for sure.

I suspect we’ll look back at this game later in the year and count it as a breather, since their O couldn’t do crap against our D.

Tuberville wants to play defense

what he doesn’t know is that you need top-level recruits to play defense, but you can play offense with sub-par recruits and a good scheme. Leach knew that. Tuberville is delusional. That program is going to sink.

Not by a long shot. Tech defended Lubbock well, and Texas just plain wasn’t ready to play offense or even cover in the first half. I’m really, really happy to come away with the win, but this wasn’t a spanking at all.

Catch the freaking ball. The drops were embarrassing. Gilbert is doing a much better job with the touch on short passes than he was last year.

by GoHornsGo90 on Sep 18, 2010 11:18 PM CDT up reply actions  

Things we learned:

1. The defense is stellar. We have an embarrassment of riches at DE and our secondary is great. Linebackers are too shabby either.
2. Gilbert is going to be really good.
3. We’re young and will look that way at times.
4. We can’t really run the ball.
5. Our o-line struggles and will cause mistakes by the O.

All things we knew coming into the year. But 3-0 makes it all go down a little smoother.

I really am not getting the Gilbert praise

I think the kid has the talent. He has an arm that should make any coach drool. He has decent mobility. But he gets rattled, loses confidence, and in this game he definitely showed a troubling tendency to throw right at linemen. I think he has that potential, but he hasn’t shown a great deal of progress.

Few thoughts

1. Besides the turnovers, if our receivers would have just caught a few of the passes GG put right in their hands, game may have been different.

2. Our D is awesome. Reminds me of the 1984 team that bailed out the O many many times. i do not think our O is like that team but a flash from that team was shown tonight.

3. Running attack. Not sure what to make of this but we made some boneheaded calls a few times trying to run the ball and putting GG in a third and long position. Will be interesting to see how the Texas coaches react to the game tonight going forward.

Coach Brown post game comments

Time of possession was the difference.

A lot of things to work on but very proud to come out of here with a win.

I lost my mind on the fake punt call. But we had to turn the momentum and we believe in our kids. Roberson is a big ’ol back. We did not come out here to lay up. We took dead aim and got it done.

I told the kids we needed to take that pass off TD. The only regular season loss since ’08.

Kicking game was flawless.

Football is not a pretty sport. It does not always work out for you the way you want. But if you play hard enough that can overcome a lot of mistakes.

+1

The commentators were moronic, Mack managed the clock there perfectly. If he had followed their instruction, with our anemic offense Tech would have gotten the ball back with 2 and a half minutes left and stolen a FG. And even if the offense had sputtered into gear at that point, we still had all of our timeouts and the ability to stop the clock at will. If there was only a minute, minute and a half left, that’s one thing, but they were screaming at 3 and a half minutes!

amen!

Never ask a man if he's from Texas. If he is, he'll tell you soon enough. If he's not, don't embarrass him.

Cutler vs. Dallas in D...

And VY at home?

I like VY at home…but the Bears will likely be playing from behind.

But if CJ is in beast mode...

not good for you. I’d trade Cutler if you can.

Thots ...

Every time Mack runs that boring fake, it works. I knew he was going to do it. Now we have Roberson challenging Bobino for the most successful running back in Texas history.

The defense is simply brilliant. It was fun seeing the looks of the Tech fans. Was it me, or did the cameras go to Tuberville only after a 15-yard penalty by Tech?

We’ve got offense issues (time to pass to set up the run … again), but things could be worse … like giving up 325 on the ground to AF or winning by 7 @ home vs. Florida Int’l. Surviving tonight will go a long way toward helping this team succeed over the next few weeks and down the stretch.

And oh ... Mitchell is the worst OL I think I've seen in a decade starting for Texas

+1 for the humor

I’m for the guys that say 3 – 0 is good.

I saw a lot of play calling that I didn’t like.especially in the red zone.

Report out of Houston says Keenum hurt his leg this may be why UCLA is doing good.

Thanks for all the laughs it helps ease the constipation brought on by the frustration of watching our offense.

All I have to say is...

WHEW…I started the “Worried about Tech” thread earlier this week and watching the first half solidified my fears.

Not a pretty win but any win on the road (especially at Lubbock) i’ll take it and move on happily.

What we learned today? Our D is nasty…just nasty. Limiting Tech to 7pts is insane. Our D line is fun to watch.

Offense is still a work in progress. Not scoring is one thing but turning it over in the red zone is simply not acceptable. We’re looking at least 17-0 and all momentum on our side if GG’s pass isnt tipped and returned for 6. Also Malcom’s drop also killed a promising drive…

If our O can just take care of the ball, our D will give us a great chance to win every game this yr.
