Touchdown! Greaser!
What? No smack talking from anyone in Alabama or Texas?
Big 12 gonna make a good showing, I hope.
Bama is tough, very tough.

I am pulling for UT.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Hook em' Horns.
Alabama won the toss and took the kick off, and did not defer??
HUGE mistake!
I'm not saying the Alabama player gave a cheep shot to McCoy, but this hitting with the helmet crap has got to stop. Using the helmet as a weapon had got to stop in football. Young men are getting permanently hurt playing a game.

Ah, I see! Spin Zone fodder!This is not sports! It's the Football National Championship! It's religion!![]()
No shame for Texas - 'Bama was (is) world-class, and Texas almost came back on 'em behind a true Freshman QB (I mean, he was in freakin' HIGH SCHOOL) a year ago).
I will say that the officiating was a little suspect, including (in particular) two blatant pass-interference calls missed, but those things exist in every game.
Wasn't Texas in the game due to some funky officiating in their game against Nebraska?
YES! The officials put a second on the clock after time had run out. There is no rule for doing that, and would have ended when the clock started again. The clock should have started immediately after the officials placed the ball on the ground, not when the ball was snapped. Time would have expired again. You cannot get a play off in 1 second under those conditions.

I was flying commercially back last night, listening to Channel 9. ATC wouldn't even give the scores to Southwest pilots....![]()
Well, it was quite possibly the ugliest win in history, but a win nonetheless. And another national championship ring in the case at Bryant Museum.
Roll Tide!!
Oh, and to the Bama haters in the SEC last night, why not put your money where your mouth is and refuse to accept the share of the payout for an SEC team winning the championship? ;-)
Nothing to hate - "Bama is mighty strong, but you gotta know that, when McCoy went out and was replaced by a true Frosh, they thought it was in the bag. I think plenty of respect was earned last night.

Hey Chris, Are you back in the Land of the Righteous yet? If so, did you haul this intemperate weather down here in your U-Haul?
At least the network showed *some* of the two bands during halftime. First time I've seen any of the halftime except for the superbowl.
And I'm sure in true Texas style you were enjoying Shiner and nachos while you watched...
Longhorn Band (and now, Longhorn Alumni Band)Which is really awesome since the Alabama band director was a friend of mine in college. Kenny O was the WVU drum major my freshman year. And yes I only really watch the games to see the bands(I played alto sax and flag)
Longhorn Band (and now, Longhorn Alumni Band)
Clarinet & percussion, depending the performance. Pep rallies & in the stands - percussion. Parades & halftime - clarinet.
I dearly LOVE when the Alumni Band and the Longhorn Band play- best half-time of each year.
Thanks!
