Gotcha. Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) coach (who has a NC) and an idiot qb (the number #1 qb recruit in his class) are the sole reasons for an entirely one sided victory (on both sides of the ball) and our team had absolutely nothing to do with it. That makes complete sense now.
not the sole reasons.
but you do really credit cosh for making ut's qb make errant throws that resulted in interceptions? once texas stopped even pretending to run they didnt move the ball on offense at all until we started playing an almost prevent style defense to waste time. mack brown is such an idiot that he gave up on the run game against one of the worst rush defense's in the country. and specifically he gave up on the qb run game which not only did gilbert show he could do but kstate has proved all season they cant stop.
Texas' yards per carry was 5.4 on 26 attempts for 140, even when they "abandoned" the run, still averaged more yards per carry than us, and all we did was run. Gilbert had almost 100 yards on only 9 carries???They had 272 passing yards on 32 completions. Yeah, they threw 59 times, thats because their offensive coordinator lost his binder tonight before the game, on only 14 possessions, which 4 of those possessions didn't last more than 3 plays because of INTs? C'mon. When their QB wasn't misreading the coverage and throwing up horrible passes to pick off, or just plain missing his recievers, Texas moved the ball on us. Gilbert would just eff up. They ACTUALLY kick the FG that 1st possession, make it, suddenly its 7-3 and still a ball game AND they forced us to punt on our next possession. Scary thought.
Look, I'm as happy as anybody we beat the crap outta Texas. This just was a weird game, and we caught Texas at the right time. They are a team of mind-fucks who mentally checked-out of this game once we went up 17 nothing.
Our defense is still very bad. Missouri will eat us alive. Bowl-eligibility is one thing, but I worry about who we'll play in that bowl game and whether or not they will have a bad-ass offense that will embarrass us, and that's because of that piece of crap Cosh sucks at his job.
