Well, I feel a bit sad for some of the Longhorn posters who showed real class on this board. They will be very disappointed in this season. McCoy showed that he was every bit the freshman in this game, but if you consider his year you can only conclude he is going to be a very good quarterback for Texas in years to come.

Texas A &M runs Texas into ground

Saturday, November 25, 2006


ASSOCIATED PRESS




Texas A &M 12, No . 11 Texas 7 ?

Stephen McGee scored on an 8-yard run with 2 1 /2 minutes to play and Texas A &M stunned Texas yesterday in Austin, Texas, to halt a sixgame skid in the bitter rivalry.
The Aggies (9-3, 5-3) rushed for 244 yards against the nation?s top run defense and intercepted Longhorns quarterback Colt McCoy three times, the last with just more than a minute to play.
McCoy, who set a school record with 27 touchdown passes this season, was carted off the field after taking a hit on a pass attempt with 20 seconds left. He finished 17 of 28 for 160 yards and threw an interception at the goal line at the end of the first half.
The Aggies drove 88 yards for the winning score, chewing up nearly nine minutes. Mark Goodson scored the first touchdown on a 41-yard scamper in the first quarter.
The Longhorns (9-3, 6-2) could have won the Big 12 South Division title with a victory. The loss means the Longhorns need Oklahoma to lose to Oklahoma State today or the Sooners will win the division and play Nebraska on Dec. 2 for the conference title.
Texas A &M crossed into Texas territory just three times but chewed up yards and critical minutes in the fourth quarter. The Longhorns came in giving up 42 yards rushing per game.
Texas took a 7-6 lead in the third quarter on Jamaal Charles? 6-yard touchdown run and had the Aggies pinned at their own 12 after a punt.
The Aggies converted four first downs on the winning drive, including a 14-yard run by McGee three plays before his touchdown run with 2:32 left. The Aggies converted 10 of 16 third downs in the game. McGee, who was 7-of-13 passing for 58 yards, rushed for 95 yards on 18 carries. Goodson finished with 86 yards rushing and Jorvorskie Lane ran for 60.

Hmm. Someone might want to double-check their plans for next week.
