Vince also had the capability to single handedly take over the game at any time. Don't let the A&m game fool you, Mccoy can't do that against an Alabama defense.

What McCoy has that Vince didn't is that McCoy has weapons. Plus the Florida Tebows showed flaws in 'bamas defense.

You say "we" so what position did you play for the Longhorn baseball team, and why would a baseball player write something about the football team the night you lost in the NC baseball game?

Colt with "striking" run skills. Right. Young is in a different league running than Colt.
