Mack Brown will win his first conference championship in 22 years at Reliant Stadium in Houston in a romp over Colorado for the Big 12 Championship. Kicks off at noon.

At 3:30pm our time, USC host cross-town rival UCLA. A USC win will make them 12-0, same record as Texas after routing Colorado.

So, it's Texas vs USC for the National Championship in the Rose Bowl!

Should be a great game for about a quarter...then USC's speed and enourmous talent take over. Any miscue by Vince Young and company will be exploited big-time. Anyway, this Saturday is what big-time football is all about!!!!!!!!

There will be a very good high school game too this weekend out at Fouts. You should go out if you enjoy watching good offenses. It will also give you a chance to watch a couple of very good QB's, coaches that actually have more than 3 plays, and you might even see more people at this game than UNT gets.

If you do end up going though, don't kid yourself, DD won't be out recruiting QB's like these for they are too developed for Dickey ball.

First we actually need to get a few quick gorillas that can protect the QB and open a few holes.....Manning would have had a hell of time this year at NT.

The game at Fouts will probably be better than both of those college games. The Big XII Championship and USC-UCLA games will pretty much just be showcases for the UT and USC offenses, but they won't be much of a game outside of that.

Exactly instead of trying to find another QB, why not con't to develop the dozen we already have and get some Big Blockers to plug the line on Defensive and some meat on the O-Line to block for JT and the QB of choice.

Then recruit a couple stud CB's who will actually play and not just talk.

Don't take UCLA's offense too lightly, they may have choked in the desert but we may be looking at another USC/Fresno State game again.

Just a quick chance to gloat... I'll be at the Big XII game... in a suite... with an open bar...for free! I must be living right. Downside to this is a return trip to Austin Sunday morning to work a gig I couldn't get out of.

Good thing I don't know what you look like or I'd stand outside the stadium watching for you until I could pounce and beat you up to steal your ticket.

(I'm just kidding, by the way)

All my Texas Longhorn friends have said, in their best Cartman voice, "I hate you so much!"

The best part is we have 4 tickets and 3 of the people going are NT grads. (My wife is UT grad).

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
