Matches the Hworns game today, I suppose. Hey, I try. I am sorry it is HORNS (No "w")
Still can't think of another team that wannabes & also rans lust after so much than UT.
Hmmmm, looking at the top 3 teams in the Big 12 & don't see any Northern patsies.

Nice diversion...that is not the issue...
So start another thread on the lameness of the North?
Nice try.
Why waste space on the hole known as the Big 12 North? Oh yeah, a wannabe bandwaggoner of all teams ty is who I guess I'm dealing with.
Texas still on top of the Big 12 though
I didnt even know they played today but when i saw the score on espn my chode pretty much was devestated
21 point loss is pathetic
I noticed LaMarcus had an unusually ty game, meanwhile the baby scored alot of points
ut sure did blow ass today im glad i didnt watch
I watched some while doing homework then they pissed me off by doing so ty I changed the channel about 2 or 3 mins into the 2nd half.
Yeah, but that fact (that UT leads the Big 12) obviously escapes some people.

It's pretty disappointing, but this isn't the type of team to win every game. They have their off games, but hopefully they are improving along the way. I guess it's a good team when one loss is a reason to make fun of them.

Thanks Bru!
I prefer to call it HUSKoupage
you get your kicks posting about UT losses because nebraska is irrelevant in every sport now? how's callahan working out for you guys?
There is still room on the bus for you too...hop right on! The point of my post was just making note of how quiet it was yesterday. You guys will find out how well Callahan is doing on October 25th in Lincoln. Until then, the bus awaits!
too much corn on the brain i guess. it's University of Texas, not TU - that's a different school. Pitiful to resort to Aggie tactics.
We didn't show up to play, period. And you sure as can't do that kind of with a road game in a major conference. PJ and Abrams were the only two guys I saw who were playing with a purpose. This is still a young team, and their inmaturity shows at times, especially in road games like this one, at ou, on the road aginst Duke, etc. What really kills me is that if we could return our lineup mostly intact next season, with the recruiting class we have coming in............man, THAT would be a team next year to really make a final 4 run. This team does have loads of talent, but I worry that when they're playing in the big dance and get their backs against the wall, they just won't respond like they need to (imo). As for hussker, he just has to remember that nebraska is pretty much irrelevant in all major sports at this time, they're a doormat.
If I recall the Horns last 2 trips to Lincoln ended 2 of your longest home winning streak. I think since the formation of the Big 12 NU is 1-5 aganist the Horns. Sorry you have been
Quite frankly, you were all owned:

Another nice diversionary tactic to get more on that crowded bandwagon. Last two trips? Who cares? My post was concerning yesterday's basketball game. You know, the round orange ball with a predictable bounce?

True the horns were blown out yesterday, but how did your team fare aganist texas in bb this year?? I think it was 78-59? Also is the horns-huskers game moved to a wed? Just wondering
A recap of the Horns last 2 trips to Lincoln.
GREAT GAME
Texas 20, #7 Nebraska 16
Saturday, October 31, 1998
Memorial Stadium/Tom Osborne Field (Lincoln, Neb.)
Texas faced a daunting task in playing their third Top 10 opponent of the season and facing Nebraska’s national-leading 47-game home winning streak. However, on the back of their future Heisman Trophy winning running back, the arm of their redshirt freshman quarterback and the heels of their top defensive effort of the year, the Longhorns took a major step toward respectability in a stunning 20-16 upset of No. 7 Nebraska in Lincoln. “The key thing that we did was come in here to win the ballgame,” Ricky Williams said. “We didn’t come to get a moral victory or to play a good game. We came to win and we believed that we would win. That’s the reason we beat them.” UT pulled a rare feat in Lincoln, jumping out to a 7-0 lead on its first possession and controlling the game with a 10-3 halftime lead. The Huskers responded by claiming a 13-10 lead in the third quarter, but the Longhorns didn’t crater. On the UT’s first possession of the final period and facing a third-and-10 play from its own 19-yard-line, Major Applewhite connected with little-used WR Bryan White on a 76-yard pass play. The throw set up Kris Stockton’s 19-yard field goal that knotted the game at 13. Nebraska claimed a 16-13 advantage with 8:33 remaining in the game. Facing one of the nation’s top defenses, Texas took over at its own 15-yard-line and White again made the big play. On third-and-21 from the UT 35-yard-line, White skirted the sidelines in catching a 37-yard pass that gave the Longhorns a first-and-10 at the Huskers 28. Williams rushed five consecutive times to move the ball to the Nebraska 2-yard-line, where on third-and-goal, Applewhite found Wane McGarity working his way back across the end zone on a 2-yard TD pass with 2:47 remaining. The play was tabbed the College Football Play of the Week. The game served as a significant mark in Ricky Williams run for the Heisman Trophy as he rushed 37 times for 150 yards against Nebraska’s vaunted “Black Shirt” defense, which entered the game ranked 17th nationally (106.5 ypg) against the run. Applewhite completed 14-of-26 passes for 269 yards and two TDs, but possibly the most surprising effort came from the Longhorns defense, which behind a 13-tackle, two-sack, five TFLs effort from LB Anthony Hicks held Nebraska to 311 yards of offense, more than 100 yards below its season average (412.5 ypg).
GREAT GAME
#7 Texas 27, Nebraska 24
Saturday, November 2, 2002
Memorial Stadium (Lincoln, Neb.)
Before the largest crowd (78,268) in Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium history, Texas snapped the Cornhuskers’ national leading 26-game home winning streak with a 27-24 victory in 2002. It was only the second home loss in 11 years for Nebraska. In 1998, Texas had ended the Huskers’ 47-game home winning streak. Chris Simms passed for a UT record 419 yards and Roy Williams had a school best 13 catches for 161 yards and two touchdowns. But Williams’ biggest catch, a 10-yard completion with 1:34 remaining that would have given Texas a first down and allowed them to run out the clock, was nullified by an offensive pass interference call. Nebraska’s DeJuan Groce returned the insuring punt 44 yards to the UT 16 and two snaps later set up the games most dramatic play. With only 10 seconds remaining, and Nebraska camped deep in Texas territory, Nathan Vasher leaped high to pick off Husker QB Jammal Lord’s pass at the UT one-yard line. Vasher’s interception foiled a brilliant comeback by the Cornhuskers, who had trailed, 27-17 with less than three minutes remaining. It was a big game for fullback Ivan Williams, who had six pass receptions for 111 yards (most-ever by a UT fullback), and Cedric Benson set the tone on the ground with 86 yards on 28 carries as the Horns registered 498 yards of offense.

^ Great post, remember both of those games fondly!
Take away the horrible 1999 Big 12 championship game and the Horns own the huskers since 96. The 2 games in Lincoln were classic, the 98 game was my favorite.
