OU vs. Texas

[Panther Ross]

I seriously think that Texas will get beat by at least 30.

[CHSBaseball07]

I think Texas will hang maybe for the first half....im the biggest texas fan there is......but i have no faith.....again this year..lol....we COULD pull the upset.....but not likely

[Gobbla2001]

UT in a close one...

Ut by 150 if all of our good Texass players would stop going to Blow-U!

[CHSBaseball07]

If Texas plays the game of their life......Benson somehow gets 150 yards although combined his Fresh, Soph. and Jr. year he prolly hasnt had that total against OU and OU doesnt play great....Texas by 3

[rodeo-rider]

sorry, longhorns really don't have a chance!!
i'm still rooting for you though!!
upset the sooners!!

[Sirsnagsalot]

I'm a longhorn, but I just can't see them winning...Even if they could, in their minds they think they can't

[CHSBaseball07]

Im tired of OU always dominating the Big XII and someone needs to do something about it....i just wish it could be Texas that does that "something about it" lol

[rodeo-rider]

maybe texas tech could take them down
go red raiders!!!

[bevo]

UT this year folks! Just thought that I would pass along a little history for you folks, that has some doubt about this year. Other than the ‘71-‘75 (5 in a row OU) it has been usually three to four years consecutive…that’s excluding the ’58-’65 (8 yrs in a row) in which we (UT) had taken consecutively. So…it’s our time again. HOOKEM’ HORNS!

…As History stands…”55-38-5” (W, L, T)…UT!

[DawgFan91]

I wouldn't put money on Texas but I think they will keep it respectable this year b/c they will play better defense. I think. But, UT has to get pressure on the QB which they haven't done a good job of here lately.

I'll say Oklahoma by 10.

[OldBrahma04]

This is the year of the Horns. . All the UT fans including "the biggest UT fan" should be ashamed of themselves. They have everything going this year. . no holes in the team, except maybe the coach. But there is enough talent to win with a coach that manages to choke with the best players in the nation every year.

[big daddy russ]

Texas is already playing in midseason form, something that usually takes them eight games to do. This is the Longhorns' year. I say TU by 10.

[sinfan75]

The texas Sooners win again until proven otherwise.

[KTJ]

What was the point of starting this thread? (Especially by an Aggie?)


Anywho, despite point spread and past results, Texas/OU weekend is something that no one can really predict. This series is a series of streaks--right now OU is on their winning streak while Texas had a little 4 game streak in the early 90's too.

I can't believe I actually got a ticket to this game?! Both teams will be hype and should be undefeated coming in, meaning two top 5 teams playing. It should be interesting.


**The last time Texas lost 5 in a row, DKR resigned at the end of the season. Needless to say, I don't think Mack would resign should he lose to OU again. (calling Steve Spurrier....)

[lepfan]

Top notch Texas players want to play for a top notch (winning) team...to bad they have to go to Oklahoma to be a part of that team....why cry about it...it is just a fact of life!!!!!

[bullfrog_alumni_02]

i hate oklahoma coming into this one.i have always and always will hate ou. but i pick them to win a close game simply becasue they return the same team as last year. texas remembers their wounds from last year, and in the recent years past. i really hop they can pull the upset and send oklahoma back to the crap hole they came from. i pick oklahoma by11.:(

[Bulldog_12]

Yeah, I hate to say it but things look grim for pretty much every team in the Big XII. Unless someone can pull a huge upset like we did two years ago, which I am praying happens again. I pick OU but I really want Texas to win it. Maybe it would hurt OU's confidence before they played us and make it easier on us. :D

[exbccards76'smom]

Sorry guys, but my blood runs deep through Oklahoma!! Gotta pick the Sooners in this one.

GO OU!!!!!

[Phil C]

Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves here. Let's wait till the week they play. Remember this week Texas has to play the tough Baylor Bears and Oklahoma has to play an outstanding Texas Tech team. Both games will probably be decided by a field goal.

[onfirebball05mustang]

OU all the way!!! Boomer Sooner- I like being the oddball in a group of Longhorns, it makes life more interesting! lol

[Kool Tarpon 21]

I wanted to go to this game, but I heard that the tickets were sold out and that you can get a ticket for like $300. I don't have that much money because I'm poor.:(

First of all does that hurt anything to discuss it? Who cares nobody else seems to care but you. Why does it matter it is just something to discuss.

I just asked what was the point? Didn't mean to get you all upset--sheesh! :confused:


It is something to discuss, I agree. I had the crazy thought that maybe you, Panther Ross, would start this topic to say something along the lines of [insert something about Texas beating OU here], but I guess I was wrong.

[RTX 14]

I hate ou and probably always will and im a huge texas fan, i think texas has a good team this year and will make it close this year, i know ou has been dominating them here recently but im gonna go out and say texas by 7

[handNthedirt]

No, I don't consider Arkansas a bad team, I also don't consider that a "big time" game... On paper, that should have been a blow out. I'm glad ya'll got North Texas, Rice and Baylor out of your way...good luck in conference. Why don't you hippies schedule the Mighty Canyon Vista Jr High Mustang Football team next year, I hear they've a got a week or two open on next years schedule.

[JasperDog94]

You don't play games on paper, you play them on the field and anybody that knows anything about the game of football would tell you that Texas/Arkansas is a huge game.

But on the other hand, you're probably too young to remember the old Southwest Conference and all the rivalries.

Why would you consider Arkansas/TU a big time game? what's at stake...bragging rights? Big deal! I don't consider most bowl games big time games. In my opinion, big time games involve either a conference, or national championship....and the SWC is over with, it's history you old fart, who cares!?!

Some of you are obessing with UT way too much and you aren't even Longhorn fans. What's the deal?

Also--Aggy could not and would not beat Arkansas.

So everything you've said about UT/A&m being a "big time game" is all out the door now?

[JasperDog94]

Originally posted by handNthedirt

But Texas/OU isn't a conference championship game or a national title game. How, by your own definition of a "big game", do you consider this a "big game"?

[handNthedirt]

I guess that would make me an old fart as well, I am also 28. Anyway, I wasn't saying only championship games matter, I was referring to the conference games that one has to win in order to have a shot at a championship game, whether it be conference, or national. Who cares about bragging rights? And I'd take Ag over Arkansas!

[KTJ]

The Arkies were suprisingly nice--well 80% of them were nice when we went up there.

But those freaks had "Beat Texas" week at school, made "Beat Texas" "Tuck Fexas" and "Horns Down" t shirts, and even had a parade.

Now if that isn't going overboard, I don't know what is. However, that was the biggest crowd to ever watch a sporting even in the state of Arkansas. I find that interesting...

[JasperDog94]

[Panther Ross]

If Texas did not beat them last season they have no chance this season, they lost Roy Williams, De Carrie Pearson ( I do not think that is how you spell it) , Tubbs, and a linebacker I cannot seem to think of his name. Defense will not be as strong as last season.

[Panther Ross]

I know this is a little off topic but can anybody tell me the score between Bridge City and Jasper game please.

I sincerely hope Mack doesn't leave. He catches more crap than any other coach in the nation, but remember... before 1996 Spurrier had the same rep (great recruiter, but only did well because of talent... couldn't win the big game... couldn't beat FSU... etc.). Then Danny Wuerffel came along and everyone in the heart of the Sunshine State was happy. Give Mack a little while. He didn't turn North Carolina around on recruiting alone.

[Ag04]

Also--Aggy could not and would not beat Arkansas. [/B][/QUOTE]

you must be obsessed with Aggies......They're not even part of this discussion! It's between OU & tu.
And I wound't be so sure......tu barely beat Arkansas!!!

[BlitzemAll]

Mack is good coach, bordering on being great......unfortunately for him, he will only be the second best coach in the conference, and will remain so until Stoops decides to try the big boys....which he says he may not want to do .....so its OU.....with Texas 2nd again...

Whats sad is they are both in the south, because there is nothing in the north to challenge either 1 of them. To bad...but then MAck would probably shudder at the thought of a rematch.

Your 5th post and you're already trying to call out a veteran poster on this BBS. :rolleyes:

First off, when I said Aggy couldn't beat Arkie, I was referring to several posts that mentioned how "UT barely beat Arkansas"; hence, my response. My response also came from the fact that an Aggy is the one who started that topic.

Second, if you were to have been in Arkansas on that night like I was, you would have seen why we "barely beat Arkansas." And no, I'd bet money right now that if A&M went into Fayettenam, the would lose.


BTW--props to the lone Aggy at the UT/Arkie game who was cheering his loudest for TEXAS.

Come on down to DKR Russ. I'll even let you sit by me in the student section. Then we will see how long you last talking smack about UT. :D

Also--I personally don't have a problem with Mack. In fact, I think he's a great guy with a good coaching philosophy. It doesn't matter the coach; I just want them to win consistantly, go BCS bowling, and contend, and play for, a NC. It doesn't matter if that coach is Mack, Steve, or Ty Willingham, as long as they are doing that at Texas, then I'm fine.

I think most people just want Mack to get over the hump--hump being OU and no BCS bowl. Once he does that, more people who hate him will start to like him, again.

No....my playing days are looooonnnnggggg gone:weeping:

[IHStangFan]

it will be the same ole same ole....each and every year that last few years...UT schedules these teams at the begining of the season that are basically "sacraficial lambs"...they win 45-0, 65-0....then they have to play someone worth a crap...and get slapped back down to earth..and its usually OU that does it. I'm not knocking them...just stating what i've observed...i'd LOVE for UT to beat OU! if theyre going to do it....this is gonna be the year....OU doesnt look as strong, and UT looks better than they have....but we'll see. good luck Longhorns.

That is crazy. Every season he has the most talent but can win nothing. It is the same ole same ole every season. I think that Fran is probably the best coach in the big 12. He has turned around every team he has been to. Last season Mack would not adjust to the blitz from Washington last season and the poor qb got hit almost every time he was back to pass. Mack Brown is a good coach but he is not even close to great.

Frantastic is NOT the best coach in the Big 12. He hasn't done anything yet.

1.) Stoops
2.) Snyder
3.) Mack

in that order. Pinkle would be up there had he not lost to Troy.


And no, we don't have "the most talent" every season. We've been in the 5-10 range for recruiting classes the past few years. Stoops has the most talent this year, with us not too far behind.

You act as if we, the fans, like seeing these types of games cause we sure don't. We don't make the schedule and neither does Mack. Dodds does that stuff.

Next year we are playing Ohio State. I would like to see at least one Big 10, SEC, or ACC opponent on the schedule every year--even a mid-level team from those conferences. It would do us good.

And it's not like it matters anymore--SOS isn't in the BCS configuration.
