University of Texas - College Football

[Guest]

I'm going to have to just come out and say this...

No, it's not the antibiotics I'm on because of my wicked, nasty bronchial infection

Or the drugs I'm on to treat the symptoms

Or the sutble amout of booze to help me forget my misery

Or my lack of sleep because I can barely breathe

But, I am sick and fucking tired of UT. In my opinion, I think they are the MOST overrated team in the entire fucking nation every fucking year. I'm sitting here watching them play Texas Tech on national television, much like about 80% of the rest of the country, watching them destroy a very, very undermatched team. Actually, truth be told, the score should be MUCH, MUCH higher given how poorly Texas Tech has played and their talent as a team (OK, Texas Tech has staged a comeback, but it doesn't matter if Tech wins then I'm totally justified in my assertions...if not, the UT STILL sucks).

Anyway, UT is routinely ranked in the top 10 every single year. Why? I just don't understand why?

They play in one of the most pathetic conferences in the country. This is such a bad conference that they almost broke up over the Summer.

Every single, fucking year their schedule is one built for the short-bus crowd. As an example, let's examine this year's schedule:

Rice
Wyoming
Texas Tech
UCLA (somewhat legit)
Oklahoma (always legit)
Nebraska (legit this year, I will wager cash, money that UT loses this game)
Iowa State (they have a football team?)
Baylor (REALLY????, I can promise that UT will not beat them by a wider margin than TCU beat them today...35points)
Kansas State (they are a Longhorn killer so I like them)
Oklahoma State (somewhat legit)
Florida Atlantic (this is a REAL college...shit, University of Phoenix has an intra-murial team that has next...)
Texas A&M (always 50/50)

The sad thing is that with a little luck, UT could run the table given this poor attempt at building a schedule. BUT, if Boise State or TCU loses even ONE game they are OUT (PS I can promise that TCU beats Baylor by more that UT and BSU beats Wyoming by more than UT). But, let's forget that and focus on some really qualty teams with real quality schedules:

Alabama

San Jose State (a joke)
Penn State (by year's end a top 10 team)
Duke (a joke)
Arkansas (a legit top 10 contender)
Florida (top 10 and possibly a top 5 team)
South Carolina (top 10 contender)
Mississippi
Tennessee
LSU (top 10 contender)
Georgia State (SUCKS)
Auburn (top 10 contender)

If this team loses even ONE game, they will no longer be the top ranked team in the U.S.

I love watching college games, but almost every year, the wrong team is annointed the BEST team. The most offensive culprit, IMHO, is always UT. This is a team that works the 'system.' Truth be told, if a team doesn't play in the SEC or the BIG 10, then you probably shouldn't be in the national championship game. Some exceptions will apply, such as when USC was so good in the Pac10 (but the Pac10 then was legit, UC, UCLA, UW, Arizonia, Oregon State, etc.).

But, generally speaking, in college football the best teams almost always just beat the shit out of each other all season while shitty teams like UT take advantage of their weak conference and favorable schedule. Every year, the championship game should be one of the following scenarios:

1) SEC champ vs. BIG 10 champ
2) SEC champ vs. SEC runner-up
3) BIG 10 champ vs. BIG 10 runner-up
4) SEC/BIG 10 champ vs. Cinderella team with a legit schedule

College football needs a playoff system to expose the frauds and to shine the light on the super stars...

Still, UT is the MOST OVERRATED team in college football...year in, year out...

Haha lmao now that is simply fucking priceless! I as you know am a diehard Miami Hurricanes fan. Die hard. However, we've still got a way to go to get back to the promise land.

UT... well they do have a lot of talent, but no way do they get past OU this year. They have the same problem as Florida... No QB.

I gotta say, the teams to beat look like are the big O trio... Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Oregon. Alabama looks good too, but someone in the SEC will knock them off this year.

I watched Boise beat VA tech and was impressed, but I can't stand them and I think they will either drop a game or the BCS will screw them.


PS......Mike Ditka could beat any of those teams all by himself with one arm tied behind his back and a blindfold.

I'm a UT fan. Can't say I disagree with you on their schedule. I'd love to see them play top rated teams most of the time. At least then we'd have something to brag about.

But I think you are forgetting, even when Texas does play a top team, Oklahoma, USC, Ohio State, Nebraska, Kansas State, etc.. they usually bring a better game. When they play those teams they still beat them 60%+ of the time.

But generally I agree... they have a lax schedule.

The state of Texas only has two football programs that are worth a damn... the Texas Longhorns and the Oklahoma Sooners.

Look how many of their players are from Texas, that's what I mean.

Forget the fact that the ENTIRE video was made to the tunes of Little John...

Yes, many of those hits where impressive, but 90% of them are ILLEGAL as well.

The 'U' is the the dirtiest team in the nation, year in and year out. They recruit thugs, dress thugs, and graduate thugs. Not something to be proud of...

But, hey, a win is a win...

I'm knocking heads off!!!!
