The better team seals the deal in crunch time, period.
Not to be picky but it was 6 minutes to go. At 4 minutes it was a 5 point lead. texas gave up quite a few points in the 4th also. 14 I believe. as for the 4th downs, texas also lost every one except the last one...and why wasnt Bush in the game for that play.

As for the play with White, that's the right call. If they run a toss to Bush and he gets dropped short, everyone says "White was running over them all game, how do you not hand the ball to him?" He had 3 TD runs on that same play...it was the right call.

flump..
how do you feel about texas being national champions. I turned the game off at the end b/c I didn't care either way. I am an A&M football fan and I just couldn't make myself pull for UT. I also hate the overhype that USC gets..
Take Vandy out of the SEC and they would go undefeated with USC's soft schedule.

I'd love to see Young go to the Jets.That way they could put Pennington's and Youngs brain together to make one person of average intelligence.

I didn't see the game yet but I agree with TD. The better team doesn't make mistakes that cost them the game.

That was the best football game I have ever seen and might be the best I ever see. Vince Young put on the best individual effort that I have ever seen. If they voted the Heisman today instead of early December he would probably win it.
Pete Carrol is a class act.

Wasn't A&M in the running for Vince Young but got McNeal instead?
PS: When will A&M fire francionne?

For the first time I watched a whole football game and it was really good. But SanDog and I are sobbing.
I don't really know the game yet but it sure looked to me like SC had it in the bag and it got away from them.

Anhil8tor Wrote:Wasn't A&M in the running for Vince Young but got McNeal instead?Man, I have no idea. I didn't know who Vince Young was until he got popular at Texas. McNeal was supposed to lead A&M out of the promised land. He turned out to be a nut job. Everyone there hates him. He sat out the Texas game injured, and spent the game on the sidelines in his low hanging pants, bling bling gold chains, pimped out hoodie and standing at the FAR end of the team on the sidelines. Freshman quarterback starting in his place and he doesn't even have a headset or anything to help the dude out. Fuck Reggie McNeal.
PS: When will A&M fire francionne?
Franchione is good for a few more years. He just donated over a million bucks for an athletic complex of some kind. Something that A&M has tried to get funding for years.

If I remember right.. Young was undecided between A&M and UT. I THINK McNeal commited to A&M first and Young then decided to goto Texas. McNeal had all the pub coming out of high school and he was sposed to be what Young is today.

I think Young will play one more year of college. His mom wants him to stay in school.

June 4 -- On my way to Houston, I stopped in Lufkin to see one of the nation's premier players, QB Reggie McNeal, who runs a 10.3 100 meters. Then, in Houston, the group I met with included four Top 100 prospects: DT Rodrigue Wright (6-5, 324) of Ailef Hastings; DE Travis Leitko (6-5, 255) of The Woodlands; QB Vincent Young (6-5, 195) of Houston Madison; and a new addition to the list, OL Cody Douglas (6-5, 315) of LaMarque, who's committed to Texas A&M. Young's teammate, Donald Burgs, is one of the region's top CBs, and Anthony Wright of Klein Forest is an elite WR. Others to watch: OL Mike Cook of Friendship Clearbrook, WR Biren Ealy of Houston Cy Falls, WR Seth Edwards of Spring, WR Willie Gaston of Galena Park North Shore, and WR/DB Dominic Williams of Aldine

Where did Ben Olson, Tyler Palko and Trent Edwards play?
You know, A&M has a history of taking top ranked high school quarterbacks and turning them into dipshits in less than 4 years.
