well, here in texas they are saying texas would have beat bama if colt had not been injured. i know they are bitter as we would be if the events had been reversed. but my take is that bama had planned all its blitzes etc for colt. when he went out, we we stunned as well. who's to say we would not have sacked him 12 times and intercepted 4. if we were getting to him on the 5th play of the game, he might have really got hurt. its a team game. texas played tough and is a very good team. i hope in the years to come, texas fans will not put an asterisk by this game and play the what if game. anyone else have a take. here's to you tejas. good game.

Nothing wrong with their bitterness. Like you said, Gumps would be saying the same things.

Texas Fans Drinking that "Moral Victory" Kool-aid.
I read in today's paper where MCCoy was talking about his injury etc. He said "We HAD THEM back on their heels"
Yeah..and we had them on their arse as well.
Shoulda-woulda-coulda.
If the frickers had a running game instead of one-dimensional they might have won who knows?
They could'nt succeed against us constantly throwing on 2 out of 3 downs Our D kept them in check we saw it.
Let them be cry babys we still won it fair and square.

They would have won if they had a better team. McCoy could have made a difference, but he just had a low tolerance of being hit.
Perhaps in the future when we all start playing pussified flag football, UT will have a chance. I rewatched the game last night, this time knowing GMac had cracked ribs. He took a bunch of shots to the ribs and didn't puss out. Maybe the UT players could take an object lesson from him.

yeah and if Bradford wasn't hurt in the OU/Texas game,,,texas would not have made it to the NC game.
If texas wasn't given another second against nebraska, they would not have been in the NC game.
Longhorn fans are bitter because their soft QB was KTFO of the game.

It's disappointing when a game of such magnitude is on the line and either/both teams can't compete with the talent that positioned them to play the game. Nobody knows what would/could have happened and they never will know. Alabama won ...fair and square.

Yeah the Longhorns will always moan about this one, but you have to play the game you're presented with. Bama would have run a different gameplan if McCoy was in and Texas would have as well. We'll never know what would've happened, but injuries are part of the game and it's up to you to adjust to them.
McCoy doesn't play D either. Him being there might have kept Texas D off the field for longer, but it wouldn't have stopped Bama from getting over 200 yards rushing even when Texas was stacking the line and loading the box with 9.

At this point I'm wondering why you even care what TX fans think? You won. You have the BCS and AP titles, so why do you care?

I think with all of the talent Texas recruits, their number 1 running threat shouldn't be a QB, especially a fairly frail one. Running QB's get hurt a lot. Vick, Young, etc. I think Texas's biggest problem is they have no running game. They couldn't get the ball in on first down from the one. They said before the game they wanted to run Colt more this game. When you put your star player in position to get hurt due to the gameplan, you earned what you got.

They just can't face the fact that they have lost two consecutive NC games to an SEC team. Plus SEC went 3-0 vs Big 12 in bowls..
