5 power conferences and only 4 spots

the right teams are in

the committee had a tough decision but selected the 4 best teams which was their job

I could live with that. :)

Although honestly Texas has already beaten Alabama.  Should the Horns manage to beat Washington, I'd prefer a matchup against Michigan, just to play someone new.

And also, were Texas to win THAT game, it would mean the Horns would be the B12 champs, and would have beaten the SEC champ, the PAC champ, and the B1G champ.  The odds are, of course, against all of that.  But it's fun to speculate.

So, after his public advocacy against Texas football earlier this season, B12 Commissioner Yormark received a... salty... reception from Texas fans during the B12 trophy presentation.  They booed him so loudly and so relentlessly, you couldn't hear pretty much ANY of his speech.  I'm normally not one for booing and I would not have participated had I been there, but I consider it well-earned in this case.

But, not to be outdone, Yormark's daughters had a special handsign for the Texas fans that were righteously booing their dad.




Stay classy, Yormarks.

Where exactly is that arm coming from?!?  Doesn't look like it's attached to a person anywhere. 

Anyway, booing Yormark was the funniest part of the game, and my second favorite moment from the broadcast.  I had fallen asleep in the 4th quarter and my wife woke me up to see the less than warm reception he received. 

My first favorite moment was the halftime desk with Kevin Negandhi and Booger, where Booger got so excited about T'Vondre Sweat's TD reception that the studio crew later pulled old footage of Booger catching a TD against Florida back in the day.  Honestly, I don't remember that and had no idea Booger ever logged a TD, but I cracked up when they showed it and Booger was yelling "Kev!  Look at it, Kev!  Athleticism personified!  Athletic dominance at it's best!"

I'm just stating what I think will happen.

Texas is schematically tough against teams whose offense is based on the ability to run straight ahead. The aforementioned Sweat and Murphy make that a problem.

Washington doesn't seem to have that scheme. They're comfortable throwing just to throw. Now, the Texas pass rush gets a lot better when choke-holds aren't allowed, but still, slowing that offense will be a challenge for Texas.

I'm hoping Michigan somehow pulls off the miracle win against Bama just so I can see quien es mas macho.
