he's right though. And I heard this morning Mangino is no longer the OC. I've seen ISU play twice this yr, they have one hell of a WR but thats really it. Once down 20pts they lose confidence and give

Iowa State's 113th ranked defense with a nice shutout tonight. 

i wonder how many teams in the history of college football can say they faced the #1, #2, and #3 scoring offenses in the nation in three successive weeks.  That's gotta kill the defensive numbers, even though they held two of the three well under their season averages.  Even if Texas' offense DIDN'T suck they would've felt like a vacation after the last three weeks for isu

I disagree.  From what I've taken over the last couple of years on here from sec fans, any sec loss is not a bad loss.  On a side note, I'm pretty confident that isu would beat South Carolina.  On another side note, just to address all of the Aggies (you aren't one of them) who've gotten on various longhorn threads to gloat, I kinda doubt that the ags would get more than 6 wins with Texas' schedule this year.

I think that A&M would beat both Baylor and TCU by 21 points each - see I can say things that can never be proved or dis-proved as well.  

Fact is A&M D was questionable today just as Texas O was awful today - only 2 differences: (1) SC is a better program than Iowa State (2) A&M won and Texas did not.

I know you are being facetious, but atm wouldn't beat either of those teams this year.

Really no I do not think that A&M would beat either of those teams as I am a realist.

But I also have a good memory and in 2013 when A&M lost to 4 top 20 teams and lost 3 of those games by 7 points or less there were many Texas fans on this site that stated "A Loss is a Loss" quit making excuses about how good the team you lost too was - And no I think it is comical that Texas fans are using the same argument to support their team this year.  You need to understand I think it was then and is now a legitimate argument then as well as for Texas now - but you can't dismiss it when it applies to A&M and use it when it applies to your team.

I think I have been fair to Texas and thought that they had possibly turned a corner - after tonight they might have hit a truck that ran a red light before they turned the corner :)

But with that you can never use a loss to Iowa State as a "good" loss - Never!

I agree with you.  Texas has a long way to go.  I think Strong will have one more year to right the ship.

Not that it matters in the grand scheme, but my faith in Charlie is slipping away. That team looked unprepared an unmotivated. That is on the coaches. I'm tired of listening to coaches tell me in a press conference that they need to do a better job. Really? How much do you get paid?

At this point, I would understand 100% if UT made a change.

I tend to agree and this was not the first time this year - I do not know who the O coordinator is but his job title should be looked at as it looked like to me that Texas was set on what they were trying to do and when that did not work well lets try in again and see if it works no change or modification as the game went on - not a good sign- if I saw right IS had 2 LB targeting Heard to stop his run game and was daring Texas to pass - IS might have just given out the key to stopping Texas to the last 4 teams they face this year.

      What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

      Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita.

      I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
