FOOTBALL SATURDAY

It is Saturday morning, Colorado is in town, and we are getting ready for some football.  Austin is a fun place to be on game days.  There is fall in the air, and although it will be 84˚  at game time, it is in the 60’s right now.  Feels good.  Although I love hot weather.

The Longhorns look like a championship team.  Everybody but the BCS is ranking them 1 or 2!  Mostly 2, but that is because  SC hasn’t played ND yet.  I think that is the game to watch today, although the Horns are on the same time.  IF we become number 1 in the football polls, and the BCS has us at # 8…that does that mean?  What a shame, if the Texas Longhorns go undefeated and get to go to the um…Sun Bowl.  EEEKKKK.  I don’t want to think about that.

Actually, what I do want to think about is TODAY.   Colorado is always tough.  They beat us when we could have been in championship game when Chris was our QB.  Applewhite came in late, and rallied us to a close game…but that was a really big disappointing night in Dallas, at the Big XII Championship game.

I have always disliked having the championships, as you might have played that team during the season, beaten them, and have to turn around and beat them again.  Not easy.
Well, we have a championship game, so we may as well just go on and forget about it.

So here is my prediction for the game.   Texas 48  CU 21.    See how close that is to the real score.   Hook ‘em Horns!  (image placeholder)
