shock the monkey

Every member of the sports media is horribly misunderstanding the game last night. They think it was a better Ohio State team and a Texas team that just went on a crazy hot streak and OSU layed over… that was a clearly better Texas team that had the worst bounces of the ball I’ve ever seen and then just collected themselves and was that much better than Ohio State.

I was kind of tired of the schtick if I’m being honest.

Eat it, Commander Riker.

Given how much money he spent that was incredible. The other awesome troll job was the app state guy going to the aggy florida game to gloat that year they upset aggy

I like all of these Simmons should have had more of an impact, the subtle contributions should be bigger ones my thought. Arch gotta stop staring and primary receivers and missing reads, it happens but he’s to tenured for that, will haunt if not fixed. running game won it, period.

Agree Jeff, think there was a sense going in Texas should win this game, great win… that said they need to turn the corner on when the stakes are high and expected they deliver strong quarter to quarter performance.

We have to get Simms back to DKR at some point. Loved hearing VY talk about his mentorship during the 4th and longhorn podcast.

Surely, those seats weren't cheap.

Would add Collin Simmons needs to be dominate… Kenyatta Jackson much more of a presence for them, to be HIM Collin needs to be that.

The Longhorn Nation owns Chris Simms a huge apology!!!!!!

Also, go watch the push that Texas gets from G-C-G on Smothers' game-winner. Robertson, Sikorski and Baker reestablished the line of scrimmage and pushed their guys about a yard deep into the end zone. Texas hasn't gotten that from the interior in games like this.

Poor Roberson got cooked a numerous plays in a row in the 3Q. He got faked out on a run, then had a couple of passes right at him. Masco came back in and it was a different story.

My wife just doesn’t show the care she should be showing.

Yeah sorrry I could have worded that better. He is fantastic and will have splash plays against everyone…. As with all linebackers at his size he will be tested in sec play though.

Seymore didn't play at all, based on the PFF snap counts. It doesn't surprise me because I don't specifically remember seeing him. Sikorski had a helluva kickout block on Smothers' first touchdown run — a big part of why he practically walked into the end zone.

No better, no best. Both were great wins. We played better against Alabama but showed greater resilience against Ohio State. This one could have gotten embarassing. What a poker match.

I could think of another had the first half score held up last night!

This was a very different game from the 2005 Oklahoma game, but it feels the same the day after. Texas had to have that one in '05. As big as the Ohio State game was that season, the Longhorns needed to slay the dragon in Dallas before they could think about USC. The '23 Alabama game was more like '08 OU, to me. You weren't expecting it to play out that way, but it was the jumping-off point of a great season. This was one where you weren't going to credit for another close loss. You had to break through and they did.

That's awesome! For those who don't know, Joshua Perry, who is on the NBC college football desk with Chris Simms, is a Buckeye. He was on their 2014 national title team.

The most maligned anglo saxon football player in the history of our program. Class act… Hook ‘em Horns!

That was awesome. Great to see him having fun and enjoying the win like the rest of the Longhorn nation.

It was Jordan Coleman.

I didn't mention this in my Snap Judgments, but y'all — the Texas fans — needed this one, too. I prepared myself for another valiant effort against Ohio State to come up short. I think what the core group of this team went thought last year in Starkville and against Texas A&M had them better prepared for the final moments than they were in 2024 or 2025.
