Alamo Bowl Game Thread: UT v UW

[wadster]

BJ was the main reason we won some of the games and his presence would definitely make a difference in moving the chains tonight. A team as marginally good as Texas cannot overcome the loss of a premier running back like him. He is a difference maker.

Totally agree BR would make a huge difference. You just can't ask him to play in a game like this. As I said, it's selfish as a fan. I'd rather take no chances and enjoy watching him next year. He's special, special.

 

[Creek]

If you were his coach would you want him to play? I'd tell him to go get paid. This is a business, it's not a game anymore. Calling BR out for not playing is selfish as hell.

If it a business then I can treat him like a businessman. And he didn’t show up to an important meeting that we needed him at.

 

[wadster]

Nice throw by Quinn

 

[mchammer]

Sneak a TE behind them? Screen passes?

Yes Sanders, JWhit and worthy and repeat.

Damn.

No top 10 draft picks are playing in these bowls.

 

[Statalyzer]

Ugh, Keilan should have downed that inside the 5.

 

[mchammer]

Need pick six. Ewers too inaccurate

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

I think you summed up just how unimportant and insignificant these bowl games are.

Bijan makes huge $ to play for the university, but only when he wants to suit up

 

[Walking Boss]

Not sure how long the defense can hold up with the offense unable to put more than a couple of plays together on any series. I’m ready to see what Malik can do but we won’t. Just the same crap over and over.

 

[wadster]

Quinn is just too inconsistent to sustain drives. He makes 2-3 nice throws and than just awful throws when you need it the most.

 

[cnb]

This has a TCU game feel to it.

 

[wadster]

Missed jwhitt, wide open for a 1rst down

We can argue this all night. I'll have the back of our best players. You can choose not to.

 

[txhorn_et]

No way Washington protects that well w/o holding

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Ewers’ haircut gets more and more annoying with every bad throw he makes.

 

[erbutch]

D is playing a good game. No offense or coaching

 

[wadster]

Pass rush saved our *** there.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

You can have ewers back all you want
I'll back the rest of them that suit up

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Defense will wear out if offense can’t help them.

 

[George Bailey]

This team isn't built to come back from being 14 down. Gotta hold 'em here...

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

They're sure not timid on taking deep shots.

 

[Horns11]

Ford has been schemed right out. Very similar to the Texas Tech game.

 

[HalRex]

Ewers is doing fine. JWhitt needed to catch that ball.

 

[Golgo451]

This is the type of drive QE should be directing

 

[Walking Boss]

If uw scores a td here the route may be on.

 

[ATX_Horns]

Ewers is doing fine. JWhitt needed to catch that ball.

Can’t put this on Ewers .. Sark had a month to game plan throwing the ball on 3rd n 1

 

[wadster]

Penix slid instead of going head first. I guess he let his team down.

Tell him he's a quitter to his face then. You're such a man.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

I keep coming back to this thought above

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Explain to me again how extra Bowl practices will make us better?

Guess fans should learn not to care about winning bowl games. They don’t seem to be a big deal for others.
I will let this dog lie but I ain’t changing.
