Wow.  Just shut this shit down.

Epic.

I thoroughly enjoy threads like this. We all sober up from Saturday clouded in hope and contemplating rehab. Someone among us (from the future) decides “we will win out.”

You forgot a tiny detail about your declaration. This is one of those scenarios where Biff Tannen found the sports book and the actual result of the rest of our season is this: Link

I would really, really, really like to believe that, but...…..

Todd Orlando is our defensive coordinator. We aren’t winning out. In fact, we’ll lose one of the next two games against either Iowa state or Baylor. I want to be wrong so bad, but the defense is trash. 

yeah, you’re wrong.  herman lost his share of games at houston but when his back is against the wall he fucking gets shit done.  kstate had their big “statement” game last week, but they are still terrible.  we will win convincingly in two weeks and then each of the three weeks after that.  the amount of hopelessness around here is sickening, like everyone got simultaneously castrated last saturday afternoon.  you have got to buck up, man!  you can’t be bringing that kind of negative energy into the last month of the season.  and more than herman, sam is going to get this done.  he will lead, and his teammates will follow him to four straight victories.  

Hey, maybe you haven’t been keeping up with current events, but we just got our asses kicked pal!

We will be underdogs in the next three games.

I’ll put money that we beat K-State. The one semi strength of our defense has been stopping the run (or at least slowing it down). K-State doesn’t matchup that well with us

OP:

3:1 odds for $100 to win out. Yes?

Maybe play like your back is against the wall every week?

It's not though. Tech is the only shitty team on the schedule.

It’s also a well coached schedule. I don’t think this will age well at all.

Texas did a good job shutting down Hubbard, but Sanders ran wild in that game. TCU's RB was held in check, but Duggan had a nice game on the ground. Teams don't run the ball against the Texas defense nearly as often as they should because the secondary is so damn bad.

I will happily pay you $300 with your bills since you think it is free money.

TCU was dead last in passing, actually still are.  Running the ball was the only thing they could do until they played us.  

Klieman is a better coach than Herman with less talent.  He has won 7 national championships in his last 8 seasons.  

They will beat us in the trenches, they have a running QB, and I sure wouldn't bet on this game because we should win off talent alone but Herman might be losing the team.

Who gets drunk at 2:30 on a Monday?
Assistant Golf Pro's at a private club. They make like 40K/year and have Mondays off.

I'm in, fuck everybody

That's a good point. For assistants that's called Monday funday.

And if they are now making 40k that is a new one for me. Good for them.

The 40K includes lesson revenue, which is made after their 40 hour week.

But let's get back to the lecture at hand...

Texas football is a shitshow right now, and it sucks balls.

This is about the fifth guy to proclaim we will win out. And the fourth game in a row someone has proclaimed that Orlando has no choice but to adjust. I think by now numbnuts would have adjusted if he knew how. Numbnuts is numb to the kicks to the nuts our defense is taking.

Numbnuts needs to be terminated.

We might get lucky and beat tech.  Baylor will be in full rape mode.

Fur trapper style.

Maybe we need to consider hiring Leonardo DiCaprio as an analyst. What he knows about the savagery of Bear Rape might prove to be beneficial.

At this point the more realistic goal should be to hit 6-6 and become bowl eligible.

Texas we’re Back,........ 

to worrying about becoming bowl eligible.

That is just a cold hard reality, that is extremely difficult to accept.

I guess Mensa will come along and fool the masses and tell them, becoming bowl eligible is really, really hard.

Uhh, the big 12 championship is still very much a possibility.  Is that not a goal?

This thread is entertaining.  Not saying we will win out but it’s a lot better than the “fire the world” threads that have surfaced lately.
