Congratulations to the Horns.

That capped off a Big 12 vs. SEC bowl-game record of 3-1.  Sorry to say, Oklahoma was the one loser.  At least two of the winners--UT and OSU--were double-digit underdogs.

In the past two years, no SEC teams have scored more than 16 points on Georgia in the 1st half.  Oklahoma scored 31 last year, and Texas scored 20 tonight.

Bama is clearly THE dominant program of the last 10+ years.  But that doesn't automatically rub off on every other SEC team.  They put their pants on--even if they are wearing silver britches--one leg at a time.

Good to see you, CW.

Did you happen to catch Tom Herman’s last press conference before the Sugar Bowl?

Someone asked him if Georgia was the best opponent he’s seen on tape.  He said I don’t know.  Our rival to the north is pretty danged good and we respect the heck out them.

I remember watching the 84 Cotton Bowl as if it were yesterday.  I have been waiting 34 years (48) for Texas to beat UGA.  Great job Texas.

Agree.. congrats.   If you want to know how fatigued I am about the SEC bias and ESPN.... i was pulling for Texas to win.   Yes.. I know.  I'll try not to let it happen again.

That was a really fun game to watch. Georgia's an excellent team and had superior athletes at most positions, but the good news for us is their offense played to the strengths of of our defense. 

Sam had a great game, but I have no desire to see him doing that often during the regular season.

I was probably most impressed with both the o-line and d-line play.  They were dominating the LOS for most of the game.

And finally, we'll no longer have to hear Georgia fans ask "What time is it in Texas?"  Because the answer is now, "28-21."

Texas' DL was the most impressive unit imo.   They shut down the Georgia run game which had not been shut down all season by holding the point of attack and keeping the LB's clean.

Over the last two years, no SEC offense has scored more than 16 points in a first half against Georgia. Oklahoma scored 31 in the Rose Bowl. Texas scored 20 tonight.

Last time anybody held Georgia to fewer yards rushing than Texas held them to last night.
