Man, all I can say is, no Texas fan can take a conference championship for granted. That was a really important win and an important honor for the team. At the beginning of the season I thought the Horns were more of a 9-3 type team, and there were a couple of games that Texas barely squeaked out, else it could have been a 9-3 season. But this team game together with grit and determination in a way that I haven't seen from a Longhorn squad since 2009. It was a hell of a fun season to be a Longhorn fan.
I'm delighted with the conference championship, and consider anything else this season to be icing on the cake. It would be painful to be so close to making the CFP and then not get in, but that's out of the team's hands. They've now done everything they can, on the field, and we'll just have to see what happens.
Yesterday's blowout win over an Oklahoma State team that has owned us for the past decade+, was enjoyable and more than a little cathartic. It's a nice way to move on to the next chapter.
Hook 'em Horns!
