Luck and the Literature of Football

Tim Tebow crying through his John 16:33 eye black. Colt McCoy praying on the sidelines that his kicker can save a Longhorn season. Sam Bradford watching it all (I saw this in a dream) in some rustic Oklahoma sports bar. Oh how the Heisman mighty horsemen fall with a thud.

McCoy Eyes the Prizes: National Title, Heisman Trophy

It all comes down to one game for Colt McCoy. His opponents are, in order: Nebraska, Tim Tebow, and Mark Ingram. The problem is he absolutely must beat the Cornhuskers, but there’s no guarantee said victory will seal a Heisman Trophy as his other two rivals stage an SEC death match.

Latest UT-Aggie Matchup Is More Joke Than Game

How many Aggies does it take to beat the Texas Longhorns? All of them and they might want to call in Reveille, the Kyle Field clean-up crew, and the cheerleaders (alert Rick Perry and his hairdresser).

McCoy the Top QB Ever? Talk to the Ghost of VY.

Vince Young. Go ahead and say it. Everyone else will repeat the mantra this weekend and on through the end of this season of timidly high Texas Longhorn expectations. VY is the cloud that hangs over the Colt McCoy-led Horns as they creep through mostly mediocre opponents ever so close to a spot in the national title game.

Fans’ Man Crush on Shipley Blocks McCoy’s Heisman March

What’s a quarterback to do? Texas Longhorn fans have a serious man (and woman) crush on his sleek, graceful best friend, and poor Colt McCoy waits for a little more Heisman Trophy love. Austin radio talk icon Dale Dudley admits to a man crush on the uber-talented singer/songwriter/heartbreaker Bob Schneider, who makes Dudley feel all warm and ooky inside.

Longhorns, It's Time for Your Close-Up

A few days after the Texas Longhorns defense, if not its offense, manhandled Oklahoma State 41-14, I went to the set of the television show The Deep End, an ABC lawyer drama/comedy shooting in Dallas, and it clicked for me: it’s all about attitude from here on out.

It's Halloween, Do You Know Where the Scariest Football Game Is?

Boo. Welcome to Halloween football where the Longhorns sweat the weekend that killed last season and Oklahoma State Cowboys fear the wrath of "Crazy" Mike Gundy if they blow it once again (11 straight losses to Mack Brown's boys? Scarrrryyy …).
