  1. Texas D should rule the day…..much like Georgia did to Texas.
  2. Weren’t a lot of folks, including me, complaining about Sark and QE forcing too many long shots downfield about 2-3 years ago? Mostly, they’re taking what the defense gives them. Teams are respecting the Horns speed with high safeties and/or blitzes to protect against big plays. Somebody thinks QE can throw deep.
  3. Sark was happy with QE’s game, but what does he know?
  4. Ref was straight-lined - bad angle - it happens. It probably looked like the defender fouled with body from his angle. He held his whistle til after the play; I don’t think this was a case of anticipating a foul. He didn’t have the luxury of watching slo-mo replays from different angles. Not as easy as making the call from your Lazy-Boy
  5. I was actually in his class at WHS but I wasn’t good enough to play with that bunch. They were state finalists 2 years in a row. Clyde was the best HS player I ever saw play.
  6. David Clyde went to Westchester HS in Houston, not Tomball. He graduated HS in 1973 and went straight to majors; started for Rangers weeks after graduation and won his first game. Unbelievable young talent, but had a disappointing career and bounced around in majors and minors several years before hanging it up. Interesting story that you can find articles and videos on today.
  7. Simms did not quite meet the lofty expectations he was tagged with coming in, but he had a good career with Texas and the team did have good success while he was there (26-6 Record). Simms was tougher than he was given credit for. I was sitting on Row 3 at the Cotton Bowl vs OU in 2001 - Simms impressed me on how he physically stood up to a beating by that highly rated defense in a 14-3 loss. I hope he can bury the hatchet with UT and the antics of some overzealous fans of the day.
