I am sure some other Texas fans will come around this site if the BCS announces us both in the Fiesta, and most likely discredit Ohio State due to the last 2 MNC games, and the 2 losses, etc., etc., and the fan base as a whole is pretty [censored]ed off right now, and thinks that we deserve better, so I apologize in advance for any jackarses.
Looking forward to a rematch, the long awaited rubber match, if everything goes as planned.

After the 06' game I thought McCoy was pretty bad albeit his Freshman year. Being so highly touted out of high school and trying to fill Young's shoes, I thought he would be
lucky to even compete for a Big12 championship in his career given how good Oklahoma was expected (and turned out) to be. I really didn't give him much of a chance given his skill set, but his progession over the past two seasons is undeniable. He has certainly turned into one of the best quarterbacks in the nation and I give him credit for that. There is now doubt the McCoy we will face in January is a completely different football player than the one we saw in 06'. For our sake I hope he reverts back to his prior self, but I'm not holding my breath. He will play well and for us to be successful, making him uncomfortable is an absolute necessity. If our front seven give him time to throw he has proven the ability to give opponents a long night of torture.
