No on this one, now that the game has passed, it doesnt interest me anymore. I like the fact we have UM, USC and so coming up. Texas doesnt bother me as a team. Especially while "Choke" Brown is there. He wasnt worth crap pre-young and wont be worth crap post-young.

Yeah, those 11-win seasons in 2001 and 2002, both ending in bowl wins, clearly indicated that Mack was running the program into the ground before VY was the QB.

No, thats a falicy. Mack brown had alot of wins, but at the time the south was OU and UT...thats it, and brown lost those big games he was in to OU and always lost one more he wasnt supposed to along the way...

Mack Brown...
2006= 7-24 loss to tOSU... OU coming up.....
2005=year of the Young
2004= 0-12 loss to Oklahoma, good year
2003= 13-65 loss to OU, 28-38 loss to Arkansas??? lost the bowl game to Wazzu 20-28 You dont lose to your rival by 52!!!! You just dont!!!!
2002= 24-35 loss to OU, 38-42 loss to TxTech- same Tech team the Buckeyes trashed
2001= 3-14 loss AGAIN TO OU, Loss to Colorado team 37-39 IN THE B12 Champ game that got obliterated by Miami....

Now once again, where is the big game that Mack Brown has won recently without VY?

Texas has not won a Big12 title without Young in a long time.... It has been said for the years leading up to Young in 2004 and 2005 that Brown was nching closer to the hot seat...Plus Young only got them to 1 B12 title game...

Even though he lost 5 straight to OU, each of those years was better than what Texas had done before he got there.

Here are Texas's final AP poll rankings in the 8 years before and during Mack Brown's tenure:

12, NR, NR, NR, 25, 14, 23, NR

15, 21, 12, 05, 06, 12, 05, 01
