Texas 35 Central Florida 3

Wipe away the first quarter and I'm satisfied with the game.  But give UCF some credit, this game was about what I expected (I predicted the Horns to win by 32 in last week's column), a slow start by the Horns but a comfortable win.

Colt McCoy went a bubble screen away from breaking Major Applewhite's career record for passing yards in a game, and Jordan Shipley did set a UT record with 273 yards receiving, but at some point the Longhorns are going to have to be able to run the football.  It wasn't necessary this week, and to be fair, when they have had to this year they have been able to (especially against Oklahoma), but at some point it would be nice to line up and run the ball in the first half.

The Longhorns remained #2 in the polls, but fell to #3 in the BCS because they fell to fifth in the computer polls (somehow Sagarin has us behind LSU, you figure that out), but are still closer to #2 Alabama than they are #4 TCU, so it's still win out and we're in.

We'll be back on Wednesday to take a look at Texas/Baylor, Texas A&M/Oklahoma and more.
