We got whipped. No excuses, we played like absolute shit and 100% deserved the romping TT put on us. Moving on to K-State...

I only got to see a few brief moments of the game. What happened? I saw the wind was around 20 mph, typical for Lubbock, and Geno was completing a little over 50% of his passes. Is Tech's defense for real or was it a freak game like Tech beating OU last season?

Hate to tell you, Adam, but Tech's defense is for real. Tubby has those boys giving a yeoman's effort every play.

ITS THE SEC MAN! Don't worry Florida will choke.

For a SEC team Florida has a pretty easy schedule this year. If South Carolina or Georgia doesn’t beat them (both home games in the swamp) I don’t think they will get beat until Alabama beats their ass in the SEC championship game. Florida State isn’t going to beat them.

The excuse I remember hearing during the pre-season was that 2011's Tech team had a ton of injuries. That could explain the rapid turn around.

Texas not only got beat down by OU, but got injured like crazy. Jackson Jeffcoat's season is over and David Ash's wrist is allegedly NOT broken, but man it looked bad. Our best run stuffing DT (Moore) was taken to the hospital and is questionable...

It's looking pretty unanimous across the interwebz... Mack Brown needs gone.

After last season, the BOR gave Mack an unnecessary extension to 2020, "for recruiting reasons", but for the first time, included a buyout clause.

Dumb luck, amazing foresight or simply the responsible thing to do... http://thewall.com/topics/47863-mack...for-texas-fans

Their defense is for real. They play on assignment, every snap. It's pretty damn impressive. They are never out of position.

But, that's not entirely why we lost, err should I say got smashed. Geno let the wind get to his head, and was just "off" all game. One of the biggest fails was Geno not running. My lord, it was open and open, and open some more, and he stayed in the pocket. Huge disappointment there, and he actually admitted it in the post game presser. We didn't tempo really at all. I don't understand that.

We failed to set up a proper run game until the 2nd half (of which was a stolen formation from OU).

The damn announcer noticed something from our offensive tackle, Quinton Spain. MF'er wouldn't shut up about it, and it made its way to the booth(s). Spain has a very specific position with his back leg for run or pass, apparently. He also does a sweep with his head if it's a pass. 100% readable and accurate every time. Dana had to get on him about it, and he never corrected. That's got to change, as now everyone knows it.

Our already piss poor defense suffered some key injuries, which definitely didn't help.

Also, we can't stop a TE, or a wheel route...EVER. This pisses me off to no end. Exactly what Cuse did to us last year, UT burnt us a few times, and Deforest is making no adjustments. I don't understand his defense, at all.

It was obvious even in warm-ups that the guys didn't have their heads on straight. Everybody looked like they were high. Just pure complacency.

They are definitely legit.

He was going to say those things regardless.

We'll see how he sounds when we lose to everyone else on the schedule sans Kansas.

Mack isn't going anywhere... thats alot of cash for an old guy

He will say the same thing.

He has had what 3 seasons to try to turn it around?

2009: Colt gets hurt, UT loses to 'Bama in MNC
2010: wheels fall. the. F. off... 5-7
2011: new coaching staff, total upheavel... 8-5
2012: supposed to be the beginning of the rise back to elite. 9 wins minimum, 10 wins expected.
2013 AND 2014 supposed to be special seasons.

So this is the 2nd season of the rebuild and simultaneously the 3rd season of suck.
