Colorado Buffaloes v Texas Longhorns - Alamo Bowl, 29 Dec, 7pm MT - GAME THREAD

[Hallett Hell]

I like Lewis a lot. He's a little green to play a full 2nd half, but if Texas starts boat racing, why not?
Really impressed with how the D stepped up after the tough start and missing players
We have hope, but still a tough 2nd half awaits. It's not embarrassing and that makes me happy.

(Off topic)... I seriously would love to punch Jesse Palmer in the face, with his stupid 2004 haircut, and his smug face.

Tell you what, with the defensive players we have out, giving up two turnovers and buffs down only 7? Should have scored a td there but these guys don't quit . Second half is a concern with depth , offense going to need some time consuming drives. All in all, surprised at the score .

Sure as hell wouldn't hurt to get a turnover or special teams play either.

Dropped passes, dropped interception, and an over throw is probably the difference in this game so far

Idk. Play Noyer and see if he can will us to a win

Texas has some gashers on O. We need big plays on offense

Good god Noyer back in

With the 2 min drill needed, it was the correct time for Noyer to go back in. And he proved it by moving the team down the field for a FG, though he should have thrown a TD pass to Arias.

I know Noyer isn’t anyone’s favorite.. But, I’m curious as to what he would be with a full offseason, and some time to get used to being back there.

I thought he looked very good last drive

Except for the two terrible throws for gimme TDs that he mucked up....

Unless they take off the training wheels for Lewis, this is about the only way this happens. Maybe the D gets a TD

 

[Hallett Hell]

I think having Lewis in there helped settle down Noyer.

 

[Chip'sBlueBollocks]

Very good compared to pac. I’m guessing leadership and training.

I’m guessing the SEC refs are happy that they don’t have to keep up with the speed and madness of what they’re used to. This is easy Pickens for them. Also, hopefully they decide to hate Texas and their smug disposition in the next two quarters

 

[Uncle Ken]

Just happy to see he was not totally spooked. Credit to Dorrell/Chev for getting him a couple series.

He’ll probably transfer to Tennessee now.

 

[rscmac]

If Hermann doesn’t give the freshman more carries KD should find him after the game and let him know that he wouldn’t have to sit out after transferring this year. He would look good against pac defenses.

**** you. I used to look good in my faux hawk

 

[Duff Man]

Gotta say, that play to Lynch highlights our lack of playmaking ability at TE. Better athletes catch that one.

one was a drop. he had a lot more poise than Lewis

Also not having Saban yelling at you all game

 

[buff4bcs1985]

What is the deal with the pacifier mouth guards? I know I’m on the wrong side of 35 at this point, but is looking like a baby cool?

 

[Gary Indiana]

How are you still awake? Aren’t you 70?

 

[bigbang2]

Play Noyer the rest of the way. Good experience for Lewis, he is almost ready, but not quite yet. Need a full offseason and full camp.

MM didn’t know what a TE was used for besides blocking

 

[Jayne Cobb]

I loved the way Noyer was mentoring Lewis when he was in.

 

[BuffLuke80]

I don't think he's had many balls thrown his way. Quit leaving your feet so early, take that extra step. Either way, gotta catch that, it was six.

 

[Gary Indiana]

I do want to tip the cap to Dorrell this season. He’s a very smart and even keeled coach.
If TX came out that hot against MM or MT, I’m not confident that they could get the team back in the game.

 

[bigbang2]

Russell is a big miss tonight.

 

[Chip'sBlueBollocks]

Either way... eff these jerks from Texas!.. second half belongs to the BUFFS!!!...

Also, bevo doesn’t stand a chance against Ralphie!

Things to watch

Big Plays on O
TO’s created on D

We win with either, or both

 

[buff4bcs1985]

oh... there he is

 

[Skidog]

Golic is a douchebag
