Cruising through the Horn sites, it's starting to look to me like the Horns are counting the loss as a moral victory.
Sounds kinda' aggie.

Any week now before they start printing 'Longhorns never lose, they just run outta time.' t-shirts.
They were doing all they could to focus on the positive--glowing about Gilbert's performance, how good Newton will be next year, blah blah blah.
"Texas is no closer to being a strong, physical team than it was before Mack’s proclamation he wanted to out-SEC his Big 12 opponents. OU owned both lines of scrimmage and, well, everything else. Texas remains a finesse team."
How much the nation respects them for their play.
BFD.

I don’t know if the block on that last one was due to low trajectory or if the guys up front didn’t hold their ground well enough. I’m not convinced it matters. We have every reason to believe the ball could have gone through the uprights and the refs would have signaled first down Oregon. - D.E.
theyre desperately trying to fluff up a difference between OU's loss to Florida last year and their loss to Bama this year because for 12 months they poo-poo'ed OU's effort and now theyre faced with the exact same situation: they simply got beat by a better team.
But Alabama outscored them in the fourth quarter...

Colt should have foregone his Sr. season instead of risking millions.
Timmah should have foregone his Sr. season instead of risking millions of people laughing at his tears.

wow...
Was Bradford injured on the first series of the Florida game last year and you had to play with Landry Jones the entire game? You're comparing apples and turnips.
Perhaps if you want to make a more apt comparison, compare Texas - Bama with Ou and USC.. we lost Colt on the first series, your guy dropped a punt. The difference? Our loss was catastrophic and yet.. we fought back. Your guy dropped a punt.. and your team quit.
There is no moral victory.
Injuries are part of the game.
We lost.
Congrats to Bama.
However, what we did NOT do is give up, lose heart and embarrass ourself and the conference. This Texas team showed heart, pride and played tough. THAT is what we Texas fans are proud of.

Well, since we can now go back in time as far as we want, how about your performance in the 2000 Red River War? Did your team quit? What does that tell us about Longhorn football?Was Bradford injured on the first series of the Florida game last year and you had to play with Landry Jones the entire game? You're comparing apples and turnips.

Actually, Bama quit in the third quarter in the MNC game, and only fired it back up when Texas threatened. Result? Two straight Bama touchdowns and a 16-point lead.
And Horns all over the world crying about "running up the score!" "Running up the score!"
Besides, we lost our starting QB when we played you, and we for sure didn't lose by 16 freakin' points.
Gee, that sounds like a moral victory.However, what we did NOT do is give up, lose heart and embarrass ourself and the conference. This Texas team showed heart, pride and played tough. THAT is what we Texas fans are proud of.

Well, I guess it's good to be proud of something. Kinda' aggie, but hey, whatever floats your boat.
You should give up trying to compare with Oklahoma, though. The whorns are far lacking in every respect and probably always will be.
Yeah, that's hardly a more apt comparison. "BlahBlahBlah.... BUT LOOK AT THIS OVER HERE !"
We were proud but disappointed in 08. We got beat by the better team. You guys this year are proud, whiny, excuses galore, and most of your fanbase simply cannot admit that you got beat by the better team and it's funny because even as you try to shift focus to OU in 2003, you subconsciously slip in one of your hornfans.com-copyrighted excuses.
'wow' indeed. But spek for checking in to take your lumps
And again, Lid, the OP was talking about hornfans and orangebloods. It's Moral Victory Central over there.
How long before they start gloating over Obama calling them to congratulate? Moral victory, indeed.

This is a thread title up on whornfans.Obama thought Colt would have made a difference...
Okay...I gotta ask...does anyone know if Obama called Bob Stoops last year? He damn well better have.

The what?
He wasn't the President until a week and a half after the championship game.

It is funny to hear that s@*t comin from a Whorn fan! No, it didn't happen in the game against Florida last year, but it happened THIS year. And despite that fact, we still played YOU within 3.
