Well, Texas obviously wasn't "back" yet when those games were played. And if memory serves me, the Terps promptly fell flat on their faces after beating the whorns both of those seasons. That made it even funnier.

The best part is that Texas was "back". That Ehlinger quote after beating Georgia came in the same year they lost to Maryland.

Wrong glass, Sir.
I can still see them getting to the CFP. The B12 is hot garbage, and they have an easy path to a rematch with Okie in the championship game. If they win the B12 with one loss, they're absolutely in. There's no way that committee and espn are going to pass on the "texas is back" narrative even though a one loss B1G East and/or PAC runner up will probably have the better resume.

I blame Alabama. They had one fucking job this year, and they blew it.

The problem is outside of Georgia and Bama, the SEC sucks ass this year. I believe the Pac-12 is the best top to bottom conference this year, but you won't hear it from ESPN.

And those Maryland teams were equivalent to Kansas at the time. Good God!

Here's the thing. I was really looking forward to Texas getting their ass handed to them week after week in the SEC. Now I'm wondering whether that is really going to happen. What if Texas is back? I'd rather deal with Alabama dominance than Texas dominance because Alabama fans are easier to contain. Can you imagine living in a world where Texas wins the SEC West every year? Kill off Alabama, and that could happen.

of all the things to worry about in this world...Texas dominating the SEC West isn't one of them

Texas isn't back. Ewers is great, and he's got a good supporting cast. Next year, they're going to have the most over-hyped and inflated recruit in the history of 'crooting. Not only did Manning play in a 2* league, but his stats were so-so even against that level of competition. His hype is based 100% on his last name. There's a reason that "the greatest qb recruit in history" didn't even somewhat challenge Ewers for the job. It's going to take at least two years for him to adapt to the speed of major college football.
