Article in The Athletic "Ranking the 25 best college football games of the 2000s: Where do Texas-USC, Kick Six rank?" by David Ubben.  Probably behind a paywall (link here) but sometimes you get a couple free ones each month.

Looking at our two main SEC rivals Oklahoma played in two of those games (both in the Top Five).  Shed a tear for our friends on the other side of the Red River because they lost both games, but still they made the list.  Texas A&M played in one of those games - as usual, just outside the Top Twenty.  Inexplicably they won it.

Your Texas Longhorns played in four of the top 16 games, winning 3 of them.  I'll admit that one of them was a bit of a surprise to me - recency bias?  I won't spoil the ending as to which game was ranked # 1 but it's safe to mention that Vince Young was pretty damn good.
