What's everybody doing to pass the time? Guess I'll do a little magnolia cafe then take the kids to the zoo

Vince and Ricky were just on.
I like that both are honest.

OK ... I'm sure it's just me ... but the recognition of the 2005 team with Mack ... and Mack's comments were awkward.

I recognize there was a lot going-on which was irrelevant to the game itself; Bevo XV, Golf, basketball ... etc ...

I LOVE Mack Brown and think he's a class act. I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when he touted the 2005 team being the best ever Longhorn squad ... during a critical game for Longhorn Football.

Blast away if it'll make ya feel better. I also think there are WAY too many "side-show Bob" activities during the game ... just to be consistent.

Anyhow ... great win. Congrats, Horns!

Didn't mind Mack but got sick of the girl in the end zone every break!!!

I pretty much got sick of everything that went on via the Jumbotron, other than game replays and other relevant FOOTBALL details. Turn that sucker down, too! I'd rather hear the band. I felt like I was subject to a big military mind control/psych-ops experiment.

Loved the game in general, though. Minus all the TV timeouts...
