Who are you suggesting should have gone instead? Cal? Even before their implosion in the bowl game, their best game was a loss. The rest of their schedule was a cakewalk... whereas Texas at least played Arkansas, Texas Tech, etc.
Texas deserved to be there and unfortunately their opponent's had the most convenient defense in the nation for VY's mobility. The last TD was a great play by Vince, but a number of the others showed lack of discipline, execution and/or bad strategy by the defense (coach and players).
Should be interesting to test just how good VY's arm is this fall. I think its better than the critics say it is, however I also believe he tries to make too much happen. On the highlight video, there are like 5 plays where he's already wrapped up for a sack and falling backwards and he throws a pass. That kind of risky play will eventually turn into a turnover (such as if another defender comes from behind and strips the ball).
I am very glad they do not have a very experienced receiving corps (TE's were the key) or running game.
And the crowd has to be jacked up for this game. We need to be deafening on every play, standing and cheering before the team even breaks the huddle.
OSU fed off of the incredible crowd in The Game last year, and they want to do the same this year. But we have to hold up our end of the bargain.
Am I the only one who thinks that if the entire crowd is more plastered than usual, they won't be as loud? Yes they'll have restraint, but if you were gonna compete in a yelling competition by yourself would you get totally drunk or stay sober? I'm not asking anyone to change their activities, I just wonder if the extra-drunkenness will be as good for noise as people think. Or will people just get drunk enough to lose their restraint but not lose their ability to yell for hours on end?
