I'll say this time and time again, not one single coach/coordinator/player on any level of football (college or NFL) understands clock management.

If Texas goes to the national championship, they are going to have to look a lot better on all sides of the football. I realize that Alabama's defense is not as strong as Nebraska's, but still. The only way I see them winning is if Alabama comes out overconfident.

Anywho, congrats on winning the Big 12! Exactly half of my family had heart attacks this evening.

Bama is going to kill Texas if both teams play how they did yesterday.

I went to the Arizona and USC game at the Coliseum...and the Trojans lost AGAIN! The game ended with USC's quarterback sacked. The only high note was USC's mascot horse, Traveler, high stepping under the goal post after a TD

It was cold too...only 60. Everybody was bundled up.

How was Nebraska robbed and raped? They didn't exactly outplay the Horns offensively, they didn't even score one touchdown. They also gave us a huge gift with the personal foul call on the last drive. This game was all about defense from both teams. In the post-game conference, Colt said he thought there were 2 seconds left on the clock - Mac Brown said he called a timeout, but the officials didn't hear him over the crowd noise. Assuming that's true, the officials should have expected, and looked right at him, for a timeout call. Regardless, the review of the clock was correct. The Horns aren't dumb enough to let themselves run out of time.

If anyone was robbed and raped, particularly by the BCS system, it was UT, last year.

I'd confer with LSU on that statement.

Glad to see that there were others on this

Nebraska's offense needs some tweaking...

However....Two outstanding players:

Alex Henery, has one heluva leg/foot/aim.

That 57 yard FG against Colorado last year was freakin' awesome.

The Nebraska Defense is incredible...O'Hanlon, Amukamara, Gomes, Crick...

and Ndamukong Suh? Sorry Colt, Teebow, et. al., I want him for the Heisman.

Last time the Longhorns were in the national championship, 2005, Reggie Bush (USC) held the Heisman title.
Look how that turned out.

When is the last time the Heisman winner was on the winning team at the national championship?

Florida was in the 2008 National Championship game and won versus Oklahoma, but Sam Bradford (of OU) had the Heisman in 2008.

So basically it's the "curse of the Heisman."

Is it really a "curse" when its only lasted five whole years?
