Texas 38 Colorado 14



Well it definitely wasn't a performance that the offense will point to and say that they played their best, but the defense and special teams (minus a blocked FG) were great, and Texas heads into the Oklahoma game undefeated for the 6th time in the Mack Brown era.

Jordan Shipley continues his ridiculous year, and should begin to get mentioned for the Heisman Trophy award.  He's been that good. 

Texas stays #2 in the country in the Coaches Poll, and is tied for #2 in the Harris poll.  The AP Poll has the 'Horns at #3, but the AP Poll is about as relevant as Wade Phillips' head coaching career.

There is a lot of teeth gnashing going on about the offense's performance this year, but we're still #7 in total offense, have the same amount of points as we had this time last year, and more importantly, we have the talent and the coaching staff that can get it done.

It is, of course, TX/OU Gameweek, which gives me a tingly feeling all over usually reserved for Victoria Secret commercials, and if you can focus and get some work done this week, you are better than most orangebloods. 

We'll be back on Wednesday to have a look at the TX/OU match-up, talk about any other games that matter this weekend, and much, much more....
