I'm sure that I'll be back to my normal manic depressive self as soon as they get spanked.
You mean, this week versus OSU?

The recruiting coordinator from Texas State got in touch with my boy today. He's going on an official visit in a few weeks. Pretty exciting stuff.

Soooo UT's defense is good but the offense sucks? Is that what I'm seeing?

Maybe. USC may not have been as formitable as the pollsters indicated. Iowa State can hardly be given an example of an elite offense. It's hard to really know about the Longhorns defense but they are obviously above average there.

I got a kick out of Herbstreit gushing over the Longhorns for beating Iowa State.

You know the Texas program is down when ESPN is fawning all over them for pulling out an unimpressive 17-7 win over a mediocre at best program.

Yes.

I've made a few comments about that myself throughout this season.

If only we had this year's defense with last year's offense, we'd be set.

Funny how the defensive guru in Charlie Strong could never fix the defense and now the supposed offensive guru in Tom Herman managed to take a pretty good offense and turn it into a bad one.

No, but we've managed to allow a combined total of 34 points over our last 3 games.

That's the lowest 3 game total allowed by our defense since like 2011.

Not even a dominant win. Hell they needed an unsportsmanlike on a third down sack to even get to 17.

I'm gonna go out on a ledge here and say this will be a close game tomorrow against OSU. I might even get excited and predict a win.

Are you talking about the coin toss or the actual game?

I've done my part for karma. I watched Wazzu vs USC and cheered for Mike Leach. You guys are rolling over and I'm over here sacrificing my pride for the better of the team.

I was thrilled to see WSU defeat usc for more than one reason. I like Leach and my suspicions about USC I believe are confirmed. They are highly overrated.

Techs defense is playing solid, a black out night game at home and the unis are super nice. I'm feeling pretty good about right now.

I wish I knew how to post IG here.

Well, there is code that would allow us to embed Instagram, but I can't access the code in the help forums because I can't verify our vBulletin license. Someone lost their damn email address that's needed to confirm it. Not naming any names or anything. But, his name is ~best Seinfeld voice~ Neeewman.
