Yeah, they've hyped themselves up since last season on Arch, and that's just because of his name, not because anything actually seen on the field. Media fed into that during the offseason and here we are. Wasn't Sayin the top prospect the prior year, and they're treating him how they should, "let's see what he does."

Reading more on Surly, lots of complaining about penalties. But not that they were bad calls, just bad penalties. Also, lots of "why can't we win the big games." Tejas fanbase surprisingly self aware. Really down on Arch. That will turn around quickly after they beat up on a few bad teams.

I will give them credit in that they will turn on and eat their own pretty quickly. They're not the pedsters of dfbia.

I saw a lot of whining about Ohio State holding and it not being called. When Ohio State was called for holding (I think the score was still 14-0) right before punting to Texas, I think their fans just said that it was to make the stats look more even.

The Longhorns didn't start on the right foot as they only had 12 yards of offense in the first drives that ended in punts. Manning looked shaky as well, being 3 for 6 with 11 yards, with one of his passes being overthrown that was almost intercepted.

The second half was a similar start to the first as the Longhorns came away with only a field goal in the first two opening drives. Manning scored the only touchdown of the game by running it in.

Manning played most of the game against a cupcake and still had low moments…

I for one LOVE learning these obscure facts, it's one of the things that makes college football fun! For instance, I'll bet not many people know that AJ Hawk is married to Brady Quinn's sister!

You probably didn’t know that Caleb Downs is a transfer from Alabama either. I like to provide obscure facts
