Texas WILL NOT win the Nat'l championship with a freshman at QB. They will easily falter somewhere along the line, mostly likely early against OSU.

Hell they wouldn't have won it last year if not for the heroics of Vince Young. One man beat an entire team, I've never seen anything like it in my life. The most frustrating game I've ever watched, because we couldn't fucking contain ONE guy. That and of course 4th down with Reggie Bush on the sidelines, I don't care how many fucking times Carroll says he's run that same play with Bush on the bench.

Colt McCoy, the redshirt freshmen qb, dating myself here but I played college ball with his dad, Brad, he was a db. Now I only found this out a while back reading his profile on a UT website. In my defense Brad had kids at a very early age and he was a couple of years older. Neat though, huh?

Anyway both the young QB's there, McCoy and Jevan Snead, are very talented, can't replace the plays VY made with his feet though. Texas is very deep every where else. Right now, I'd be happy with a Big 12 title and a BCS bowl berth. It's doable.

The thing about McCoy and Snead is that they are both pocket passers. Vince was not. Vince made it very easy for that line...because he moved around a lot...avoided the rush. McCoy and Snead both won't be near as effective...so there are many questions.

I have seen Freshmen do weird things...and they have a lot of talent around. If they can avoid mistakes...AND if they beat OSU...which is possible...

The CAN win the National Title...

by December...freshman aren't freshman any more...

do I think it will happen?

No.

Do I think OSU will beat them by more than 7?

Yes...



and so it begins...

You're right, there are many questions. We'll see I guess. Can't wait for Sept. 9!

Also re: Texas, in the Tank McNamera (?) comic strip today, it's about Ramonce Taylor, the Longhorn rb that was popped for marijuana a couple months ago. Funny, I guess. He left the school on his own, not sure if he was/is looking at a conviction. They're so deep there, he won't be missed.

Here's the strip (I hope)
