Am I the only one happy that we one yesterday? Am I the only one looking forward to the Mississippi State game and hopeful the Longhorns come out on top? Am I the only one, Lord willing, looking forward to watching the Longhorns play on Saturday. 
 

I get everyone that gets a paycheck from OTF breaking down the game, providing their thoughts, sharing their expertise, and  voicing prognostications about the future. This is how they feed their families and buy toilet paper to wipe their collective behinds.

At the end of the day, I’m a fan (not a coach, not a player, not someone that benefits financially when the Longhorns are riding high); I’ll show up on Saturdays as long as I’m alive and root for the Longhorns.

To paraphrase Davy Crockett: Y’all can go to Hell, and I’ll root for Texas. Hook ‘Em’ and enjoying the road to 10-2. 🤘🏾

 Be blessed and enjoy your week.

 

I’m with you buddy. Yes, there are things we need to improve upon but a win is a win and a night game at Kentucky has been a trap game for many teams. Of course we are going to talk all week about how to fix the problems and hopefully rally like we did with OU because we are going to need to. But let’s celebrate the win, great special teams and awesome goal line stand. And then we can pray for our offense!

Everyone wants us to win. Everyone is ultimately happy that we won. What I’ve learned after 35 years as a “passionate” fan is that most negative reactions to seeing our team play badly are associating it with future pain in games left on the schedule. This especially happens early in the season when we haven’t played OU yet, but when expectations are raised to a new standard of CFP level Texas expectations then it now also applies to the latter part of the season as well.
 

It doesn’t help that A&M is a top four undefeated team either.

Hey a win is a win. Ugly wins beat any type of loss

I’m relieved. Which is a broad form of happiness.

2 out of 3 phases were excellent. I’ll take it! Onto the next one. 

Mississippi State is, IMO, our best chance at bowl eligibility.  They are the easiest team left on the schedule.
