Horns Outscore Baylor in 11-on-11 Game
We beat Baylor! We beat Baylor. An October game against A&M Lite was the defining game of the season. That’s how things have gone for a Texas team that threw caution to the loss against a fraudulent West Virginia team 48-45 and then soiled the Sealy the next week against Oklahoma. A loss at home against Baylor would have been devastating.

Texas/OU Halftime Report
Savannah State was laughing their asses off during the Horns’ 36-2 first half loss to Oklahoma. Horns halftime motivational speaker Joel Osteen was seen slinking out of the Cotton Bowl late in the second quarter, when OU had already amassed over 400 yards of offense to UT's single first down. Mrs. John Wayne Gacy had a better half.

Horns Lose At Home Against John Denver Fans
I’ve never played the game, never studied X’s and O’s and so I’m constantly using football terms I don’t understand, like “bubble screen,” “weakside linebacker” and “starting safety Adrian Phillips.” I’m just a fan, but one with a certain shining.

'DKR: The Royal Scrapbook'
What does one buy for the grandpa that has 40 years worth of socks from grandma? How about a little reading material to go with his morning Folgers? Say, a handsome volume festooned with timeworn Longhorn football artifacts from the old timer’s day. Suck it, socks.

The David Ash Era Has Begun
Joe Bergeron burrowed into the first inch of the end zone with 29 seconds left for a 41-36 victory on the road against a tough Oklahoma State team, keeping the Longhorns undefeated. It was a disputed game-winner, as replays showed Joe the Mole may have fumbled before he crossed the plane (if he did).

Put a Fork in Vince Young?
Starry, starry night/ Portraits hung in empty halls/ Frameless heads on nameless walls/ With eyes that watch the world and can't forget - “Vincent” by Don McLean They’re calling him a loser, a bust, a naïve nitwit who blew $50 million during his six years in the NFL on strip clubs and child support and taking his boys out to the Cheesecake Factory.

Horns Run, Pass All Over Ye Olde Miss
So much for, what they call in parts of Mississippi, “the Obama curse.” Two days after visiting the evil Muslim job-destroyer in the White House with the U.S. Olympic team, wide receiver Marquise Goodwin made an insane bolt between defenders for a 69-yard touchdown that led the Texas Longhorns to a 66-31 win at Ole Miss.

Headed Out To See UT Beat Ole Miss in Oxford?
Tailgating in the Grove is a time-honored Ole Miss game-day tradition that goes back many generations, but since it is unlikely visiting UT fans will be invited to join any of those family gatherings, you'll need to have some dining options in mind for the big weekend.

Longhorns' Million Dollar Bash
Saturday’s 45-0 victory over the New Mexico Lobos, a team that has won four games in four years, concludes the Mountain West Conference portion of the Longhorns schedule. Texas paid a million dollars to the university of the state best known as where “Breaking Bad” takes place, just so the Horns could keep mountin’ W’s. Don’t meth with Texas!
