2011 Texas-UCLA Post Mortem: Offense
A dominating performance against a bad UCLA defense. The Longhorns ran the ball 50 times for 284 yards, threw for 204 yards with an index card passing game playbook, controlled pace and tempo, imposed their will in the running game, and put on a play-calling exhibition. We used every part of the...
2011 Texas-UCLA Post Mortem: Defense Special Teams
The slow motion "Noooooo!" of seeing my original 2000 word Defensive Post-Mortem obliterated by a bot invasion server malfunction still can't sour me on our team's great performance in Los Angeles. I took in the game on a flawless SoCal day surrounded by 20,000 enthusiastic Longhorns, 40,000 grim...

Structural Inspirations in College Football: Rick Neuheisel's Mound of Mediocrity

Why UCLA Bothers Me
UCLA pisses me off. And not for the reasons you think. It's not because they're 3-0 against Texas in our last three contests. They were the better team in 1997 (Route 66 trauma flashback) and 1998 (5 foot 8 inch walk-on Jeremy Jones manned up on 6 foot 5 inch Brian Poli-Dixon and volleyball pro...
Notes from Monday's Press Conference: Longhorn Youth Movement
In rewatching Saturday's game, freshmen were all over the field making huge plays when we needed them. From Shipley's circus catches in the 4th quarter and Malcolm Brown's game-clinching run to Quandre Diggs' forced fumble and INT, the young guns from the 2011 class showed up big on the stat sheet...
Texas Releases Depth Chart for UCLA
The notables: McCoy and Ash are co-starters with Gilbert listed third. Ashton Dorsey is a starter at DT after grabbing the position by its haunches and humping it into submission vs. the Cougars. This is huge and should have Vasherized dancing a jig. Goodwin is now your starter as the Z receiver...

First piece of the basketball schedule
For the first time in years, I know nothing at all about the n-c schedule. The Arkansas contract is done, the UConn deal is on hiatus for two years, and I don't know which preseason tournament they've lined up. So I consider any news to be news. Texas at UCLA (at the LA Sports Arena) on Friday,...
