LOL who coaches/plays defense on OSU? No back side coverage at all when Texas is in the Red Zone (or near it)?
-
yea, but Texas is a big joke. They where favors by 17 and they just got be with 16 sec. i will give created to Ohio state for showing up, this time, and proving them self's.

Every time OSU shows up in a bowl game, they lose.

So you'll give credit to a team that lost the game and is infamous for losing bowl games?
Wow, your stock in football knowledge just went up...

I watch very little football. However I watched that game and was pulling for Texas. I don't think I have ever seen a game where momentum changed from moment to moment. I mean here you have OSU in charge for the first half, then Texas looks unstoppable, then a few minutes later OSU is going to win and wham Texas wins. However, as little as I know I was stunned by no back coverage, just stunned. In fact didn't they show blitz. It was an exciting game to me though.

favors by 17.
Somebody did them 17 favors?
and they just got be with 16 sec..
What did they be?
i will give created to Ohio state
What did you create that you're giving Ohio State?
and proving them self's.
Proving what, their coach can't win bowl games?
:rolleyes:
The OSU football team played great. I think their coach lost the game for them.
You could not have asked for a bigger gift horse than the defensive set they had when the Longhorns scored the final TD.

Was a good game to watch....never knew for sure who was gonna want it the most.
Dunno what Mack Brown was thinking in the first half, but keeping McCoy in the pocket and not using his running ability was not smart and almost backfired on the 'Horns.
McCoy himself I have mixed feelings about. Flashes of brilliance, then he appears to get flustered and throws a red zone interception. Then comes out in the second half and plays very well, runs just enough to keep the Buckeyes guessing and offbalance. Not sure what the deal was with the Buckeye DE (Gibson was it??), but he seemed to have a personal issue with McCoy. Forearm to the head, then the last penalty....his helmet hit McCoy under the shoulder pads, but that right arm in the back of McCoy's helmet was what got him penalized IMO. Plus McCoy had already thrown the ball and the DE was several steps away and could have pulled up.
Terrell Pryor may have shown us what lies in store for college football in the coming seasons. He is raw and young, but he reminded me of Young (Vince) the way he scrambled and made people miss or just outran them. Give him some more playing time and he will be a force to be reckoned with. I'm already looking forward to seeing how he does against mighty USC next year on his home field, with some valuable experience and playing time under his belt. Give him some additional weapons to work with and Ohio State might be a true threat for a national title in the next 2 or 3 seasons.
Anyway....enjoyable game overall. Exciting finish there, glad Quan Cosby was the one to make the winning TD catch. All in all, the second best bowl game I watched this year, with Utah taking it to 'Bama being the tops so far.
Now, just gotta wait til Thursday night, hope I get off work in time and can catch the OU-Florida game. That one should prove to be another good one, unless Oklahoma turns into Choklahoma again in the big game. They are without Murray, don't know if the other RB's are up to the task of getting the tough yards on the ground the Sooners will need to open up the way for their passing game.
Time will tell........... :aok

I have to say that that game was the most horribly produced and televised sports broadcast I have watched in a long time. I don't know what part-timers Fox Sports had in the truck but they must have been a bunch of interns.
It seemed like every other play was missed because they were showing the reply of the prior play and the Texas hurry-up offense confused them. Then the talent would be talking about a particular player and the camera was showing us the wrong player. And why did they need to show us the bands playing after every play?
-
No secret Im a huge Texas fan....
McCoy finished the season with a 77 percent completion rate. He was the leading rusher in the game last night and I believe for the season.
Cosby had 171 yards receiving last night.
If.....The bowls were played 1 week after the season you would see better play out of every team I think. 5 to 6 weeks off for any team leads to possible let downs. Sure it gives the coaches time to prepare and all but teams play on rythm.
Texas looked at BEST only fair in spots....OSU looked Fair in spots. Each team was off thier games IMHO. OSU Blitzed like crazy and tackled great but couldn't get enough offense to keep Texas off the field....Then Texas would look great and screw up.
McCoy was a heisman runner up....Orakpo was defesive player of the year winning lots of awards...
The time off IMHO affected both teams....
ANd last I saw the spread WASNT 17....it was 9....

I only watched the last 6 minutes of the game, did they have 35 analysts on the field doing stupid reports? Like, the one I saw in pre-grame for the Cotton bowl and this female* reporter asked Ole Miss's or Texas Tech's (don't remember who) QB and WR who had more Facebook friends. WHO THE F@#$ CARES, THIS IS FOOTBALL.
*Not being sexist, but that reports had no business or experience in sports before, obviously. And if she did, she's there only as a pretty face apparently.

Your just piss because Texas lost there chance for a National Championship.

what about the national championship game against university of miami a few years back....

Agreed Eddiek. My son and I were baffled by this as well.
-

Texas' "chance" went when Crabtree broke a tackle....at least according to the BcS computers...
Florida beats Bama badly....1 loss early....and beat better teams....
Oklahoma loses by 10 late....then runs every score up...they when the style points war and become number 1.
Texas didn't lose thier shot at a national championship last night....the lost it in Lubbock and to a F'ed up BCS system.
-

Yea, they were the underdogs in that game.
But i think he may be refuring to the last two years that OSU lost in the National Championship.

Well the longhorns marching band uniforms were priceless! :aok

Sideline reporter questions come from the producer in the truck screaming in their ear. I use to work NFL games for the networks when i was in high school and got to sit in the booth with the game announcers and in the truck before for NBC, CBS and Fox. I don't know how those guys live past 50 they way they blow up on each other.
But what your talking about was a studio interview, they want more than just football questions for those. Got to look at who they're talking to, 18-21 YO kids.

I would imagine the demographic for the Bowl games is much more 24-40 year olds than college students. There's a lot more alumni and fans than current students.

I think that'd depend on the school actually. Like CMU (Central Michigan University) the stands are always 100% full, its ridiculous.
-
Not if that's the only decent entertainment in town. Plus they may not be selling the tickets to watch the home team play...
Texas is coming to town! Advanced tickets on sale now!

Aggie = Like Michigan State university, Texas A&M was a "land-grant school". Specializing in "Agriculture."

MSU is a agriculture school? I had know ideal and I thought it was more of a medical school.

I blead burnt orange and enjoyed the game. I still think Greg Davis should be a high school coach and not the offence coach for one of the largest football programs in the country.
Really cool to see my friends at the game. They were sitting on the 30 yard line with his grand parents and had a nice 5 seconds nation TV spot light close up.

I went to the Liberty Bowl in 96 and this guy couldn't sell any of his Bootleg shirts to UH fans. They were really nice but we hated to break the news it was University of Houston not Houston University.
