I haven't seen the clip. I didn't have to see it before commenting because I dislike the man so much. Maybe someone else kept it. Hook 'Em!

Perfect fit for the team known as "The Children of the Corn." Didn't like him at Baylor. Didn't know him at Temple. DON'T like him at Corn U. Otoh, the ARMY HC -- now THAT was some genuine enthusiasm in a totally appropriate context.

I thought Bama looked very reminiscent of the Longhorns during the Texas Decade of Doom. What should have been better talent seemed unfocused and a little bit lethargic. Especially for an early season game. If Alabama plays like that again, I will be concerned for them because that's what Texas used to look like between Mack and Sark coaching.

I thought Livingstone ran an excellent route and made an outstanding catch on the TD. He also kept his focus and muscled the DB very well on the play for a young WR.

When the War Eagle QB sprinted up the middle through the BU Defense my thought was "this looks familiar... I think I have seen this before!" Hook 'Em!

VY knows talent when he sees it. Hook 'Em!

In years past, I would have cared. I stopped caring about the Cowboys when they no-showed at home for the playoff game against GB. Now they send their best player and Ambassador to the very same...oh, I really no longer ( insert Clark Gable line from Gone With the Wind)...

Several years ago a promoter approached Texas and Oklahoma with a proposal to play the game in the infield of the Texas Motor Speedway North of Fort Worth. I saw the artist's conception drawings and it frankly looked ridiculous. But the promoter talked about potentially pulling in 250-300k fans for the game at the NASCAR venue. A different promoter tried selling the two universities on playing the game at Jerrah Jones World after it was completed in 2010. Uh, no. Another guy billing himself as "Eas E. Money" or some such tried to convince the teams to go to a Home and Home version...no thanks, Eas E was told. I've lived in six different states since graduating from UT in 1978 and I made it a point to go to CFB games around the Nation. The Texas -OU game in the old Cotton Bowl Stadium at the State Fair of Texas is THE most unique setting for a big-time college football game in America. Hook 'Em!

Sorry to hear you lost your friend to colon cancer. My father died at age 62. His colon cancer was diagnosed at Stage IV three months before he died. Non-smoker and didn't drink. Wasn't obese and worked hard as a rancher. He loved the Longhorns and our family had his name placed on a memorial tile on the Texas Ex Students Association plaza. He never got to know his granddaughter who was born seven years later. All that is said in agreement with you. Everyone please take this disease seriously and get your screenings done. Talk to your doctor for advice and guidance. Thoughts, prayers and best wishes go out to Sergio. A great Longhorn and now a coach mentoring young people. Hook 'Em!

I've been following Longhorns football since 1968, including some years as an undergrad and graduate student. Banks was so good that many games I didn't notice him at all. I remember some instances (thankfully rare) where the Texas QBs had to play under siege because the OTs were having a bad day or just had deficiencies. Banks was great for the Longhorns and he came to the team just when his talent was needed. Best wishes for his future.

Being a Father to a Daughter myself, I was OK until Coach Corso's wife and daughter came onscreen. I sent the clip to my Daughter (BS UT '17) and told her about my reaction. She said she typically only tuned in every week just in time to see Corso's schtick and wondered how many millions had the same approach to the show. One week until Columbus and Hook 'Em!

I'm STILL bothered by the memory of Colt being injured and Mack brought Gilbert in after getting him very little PT during the season. And still, Gilbert almost pulled it off against that Bama defense. Mack wanted the Heisman for Colt a little too much. He played Colt and built his stats at the expense of game experience for Garrett Gilbert. So when the Longhorns needed a QB2 they brought in a Freshman who had spent the season carrying a clipboard. Oh, well... One more week to Columbus and Hook 'Em!!!

That soccer pitch didn't provide a very good playing surface. I noticed the KSU HC noted the condition of the field to the ESPN reporter on his way to the locker room for halftime. I know the weather was wet, but welcome to Ireland. My daughter asked me why the yard lines and other field markings were so faint. I answered that I really didn't know, but my guess was the soccer clubs didn't want their pitch marked up with American college football lines so they demanded the paint/chalk had to be much lighter than we see on the grass playing fields in the USA. I've watched the Game Zero from Ireland before and it looks like a fun trip for the fans, but just like American football stadiums have to be modified to accommodate international soccer matches, it just seems like the European pitches don't hold up to American college football very well regardless of the weather. Having said all that, I am ready for DKR to go back to a natural grass playing surface. One more week to Columbus. Hook 'Em!

Now THERE'S a word I haven't heard or read in a while and a half! Me too. Hook 'Em!
