    Well we have better players, it is the senior game. It is at night. But we are lazy on D and can't play :60, and they apparently are better at D with worse players. And more disciplined and better functionally coached (As in everyone knows what to do and when).
    Maybe the D decides Iowa State doesn't beat Texas at home,
    I'm taking the Horns because of our QB and offense and its senior night. Our D couldn't stop a blind 2 legged Mule climbing Mt Bonnell, when we are well ahead, but they play hard when we are behind.
    Look for another must win drive on the shoulders of Sam E.

    It’s a big game because we are still in the conference hunt. Winning the Big 12 this year would be a huge step.

    Sam for 70 on the ground, 320 in the air and 26 for another 70 on the ground

    That should do it

    I think this is a huge game from a program momentum standpoint. Win and 9-3 with a decent shot at getting to the conference championship game is a likelihood and the momentum for next season building high.
    It will be a tough game. Iowa state players generally don’t have the recruiting stars behind their names that the Texas players have, but none of that matters now. Texas will have to bring their “A” game on both sides of the ball and special teams to win. The offenses are equal but their defense is playing much better than ours. I would say coaching is a push, but I give Rhodes a slight advantage. Texas is at home which is huge right now. It’s a pick’em contest, but one that good Texas teams in the past would win solidly. We shall see.

    I don't think it will happen today, but I sure would like to go into the last two of a game and know we have the game won. These heart stopping finishes are taking years off my life and I don't have that many left to take!

    Im reversing my position. Blow out win by us. Everyone expects something close. Early defesive scores and unstoppable drives gives us a surprisingly easy win 55-17.

    Gotta win this one. I really think WVU beats OU at home. I want another shot at Greer and stuff those fingers...well, you know. **** hole and his Horns down needs to be put on the turf.

    Was he the one that tried to run it in last year on the goal line and wound up with his fingers twisted like pretzels?

    This summer when the networks were taking their annual selections no one chose Texas/ISU by the deadline which meant the game went to Texas' level 3 rights which is LHN. Surprised ESPN hasn't increased LHN's area for the game.

    Hi WB,
    FYI, Rhodes is their former coach. Matt Campbell is currently the ISU coach.
