Where is everyone going to watch the early game? Dogwood has 19 tv's but don't really want to go there. Pluckers is going to be packed, then there's always the Park.
Hook'Em Horns
Going to watch at Wicked Wingz in South Austin
Glad you started this thread. It's Big Balls in Cowtown time. All the experts are picking OU, as they did in the first game. I think OU has several things going for them: motivation to get in the CFB, revenge, a record setting offense, and just the statistical difficulty of beating a team twice in one year. Still, Texas is a good team. If the Horns can get a few solid hits on Kyler and cause some turnovers they can win this game.
Texas can end their season 11-3, 10-4, or 9-5. Either way, the program has improved and generated enough excitement to attract a top 5 recruiting class A win Saturday will make this the best season since 2009, and the future looks bright.

Earlier this year I picked Texas to go 9-3. I agree that this year has been a positive for the team.

I wanna see the Horns play an SEC team in the Sugar bowl. One prediction has them facing Georgia. That would be a bad ass game.
Damn! That was a tough loss. Texas killed itself with penalties. I hate to whine but the officiating was horrible, esp that missed interference call when Texas was driving for the go ahead score. Terrible play calling after UT recovered the fumble and ended up with a safety.OU has one of the best players in the county in Kyler, that dude is just hard to stop.
I still feel the Horns showed they are tough, can play with anybody, and will be better the next few years.
Hook'em with Hookers

Texas can prove they can play with the elite teams by beating Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. Georgia should have beaten Alabama -- again.
Ditto SpeedRacer. Georgia is a top 3 team.

I would say the Heisman is between Tyler and Tua Tagovailoa. I couldn't believe Tua was the 2nd string QB at Alabama when he came off the bench and just about single-handedly won the national championship game last year and his performance this year has been phenomenal.

But Murray is the quickest QB I can remember seeing. And he can pass!! So much fun to watch play.

Maybe last Saturday's games in which Tyler was fantastic and Tua was not tipped the scales in favor of Tyler.
