Maybe someday OU or UT will give us some credit when we beat them.

Oh, I know. I was being sarcastic. At least I hope we play our best game against OU and prove a few naysayers wrong.HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry GTO, but we both know that'll never happen.

Randy Pete is tough to deal with because of his stupid questions.I'd disagree with this. I don't know that our guys are that tough, but they certainly aren't fans. For example, the guys writing at the Register for Iowa State aren't fans. You may be confusing the guys writing at the Register for Iowa, who are clearly fans.
Would Matt Campbell jump down from Iowa State? It’s uncertain, as he has always been projected as more of a Midwestern fit.
Tough or delusional?I'm thrilled our local sports media are fans first. Ames has no clue what a tough sports media is like...
That's true - but within the conference they have a big advantage. On paper, anyway. Which makes their mediocrity and our success even more fun.I heard that they only have two 5-stars on their roster and tOSU has more 5-stars from Texas than any Texas school has.
They have money but there is a five school tier in recruiting that is way way above the next tier that Texas is in.
This exactly. So many of those programs need a good housecleaning which would require comfort for the new coach that they will be given the time to break things down, clean house and build them back up again. None of the bluebloods will give a new coach the necessary time. All they see is that we have all of this talent; it should be as easy as pushing the right buttons like a video game. Having a bad football culture is much worse than having no football culture.How many blue blood programs are no longer such? Nebraska, Michigan, Penn St, Texas, UCLA, USC, Florida State... Changing coaches every 4 to 5 years is the equation for failure. For the ass that TH is, he's still the best option for their future. But, like so many have eluded to, the problem is not so much the coach as it is the 'expectations' and 'egos' of the 'entitled' institution. I pray to God, WE never become that arrogant when we sip the cup of success.
Would Matt Campbell jump down from Iowa State? To Texas??Here is a good article from Pete Thamel on Herman’s hot seat.
With Tom Herman on the hot seat, what’s Texas’ next move?
If Texas is getting ready to move on from Herman, who could replace him? Texas is back, right where we remember it — with everyone in the sport speculating on who'll be the next coach.sports.yahoo.com

Actually looks like UT had 8 yards in the 2nd quarter!ISU was better the 2nd quarter too. Texas has like 15 yards in the 2nd qtr.
I think Mack Brown and Charlie Strong are having the last laugh.
I’m no Herman fan, but the program wasn’t good at the end of the Brown era and Strong’s tenure was a disaster. Texas’ culture was in bad shape when Herman took over. Getting coddled superstars who have probably not faced many challenges in football to put in the work needed to be elite is easier said than done. People on the outside think getting great recruiting classes is a majority of winning. In the end in college football good coaches win and bad coaches lose. Talent doesn’t overcome mediocre coaching, scouting, and player development.I think Mack Brown and Charlie Strong are having the last laugh.
