Texas teams have lost six of the last seven in the Little Apple, including six straight there. Snyder,who has spent 27 years as head coach of the Wildcats, is 10-8 against Texas and 7-1 at home against the Longhorns.

Pregame action 

 

[dillohorn]

Just win.

A little bit of anxiety on both sides today.  Big game for both teams.  

Anxious to see how the offense looks with Herman calling plays today and Beck being out.  Beck is Ehlinger’s sounding board on the sidelines.  Folks are quick to criticize play-callling but Tim Beck is a huge asset for the texas QB’s.

Nice drive going

 

[North Texas Golfer]

Damn, am I the only one watching the game 

 

[HORNfromETX]

Spoke too soon... stalled out 

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

If only we had a WR that used to be a quarterback that could have f##king thrown that pass... HEARD! 

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Sam is just a horrible deep ball passer. 

 

[joeywa]

Liked the play calls on the first drive, just need a bit more accuracy out of Ehlinger. 

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Not gonna be able to blame Beck for the stupid ass O calls today. 

 

[dillohorn]

Wasted drive.

 

[texbound]

Why get cute on that drive when you were picking up good chunks on the ground and short passes? Now had LJH completed that pass I probably would've said great call.  Ah, to be on the couch calling a game.

 

[joeywa]

There we go!  TD!

 

[HORNfromETX]

Jamison

 

[North Texas Golfer]

Whoa, Nellie!

 

[dillohorn]

WOW!

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Liked the play calls on the first drive, just need a bit more accuracy out of Ehlinger. 

Same story. Different day.

Love this freshman class.  All of them are making good to great contributions so far.
