I’m in New Orleans this week for PubCon Spring 2013. My family came along, so we had Monday to run around the French Quarter together.

We ended up at Grand Isle Restaurant for dinner, and decided to sit outside, since there was a nice breeze. Across a narrow courtyard from us was the sports bar Manning’s, which was hosting an alumni event for Ole Miss.

My father-in-law is an Ole Miss alum, so I follow their football team a …

Another of my favorite plays from Saturday’s Wyoming-Texas game was David Ash and Malcolm Brown running the statue of liberty play.

Malcolm takes it 31 yards to the Wyoming 10 yard line.

…

Took some video from my seats at the Wyoming-Texas game Saturday. I’m still trying to decide what my favorite play was, but this is definitely up there.

Joe Bergeron looks like he may do will with the Wild Fozzy. He had several nice reads.

And the athletic move by D.J. Monroe at the end of this play is amazing.…

For several seasons now, a crowd has been gathering to watch the Texas Longhorns walk in to Darrell K Royal – Texas Memorial Stadium before home football games. As the event has grown in popularity, it’s been harder and harder to actually see.

This year, they’ve expanded the event. Instead of being dropped off right at the north gate, the team is being dropped off at the corner of 23rd Street and Robert Dedman. They then walk about half a …

Most people think the BCS got this season’s two best teams into the National Championship Game. Of course, the computers solidly disagreed with this sentiment, and it doesn’t really hold up to scrutiny of comparative non-conference schedules.

But more than anything, we’ve already seen the game. The pundits told me it was the Game of the Century, so it couldn’t happen again, could it?

Alabama had their shot. On their own field. And they couldn’t get it done.

There’s no …

Jackson Jeffcoat hasn’t had the great year we expected so far, but he’s beginning to heat up. Saturday’s game against the Kansas Jayhawks was easily his best of the season.

And he made a great tackle for loss right in front of me.

Bryan Harsin dialed up some trickeration in the Oklahoma State-Texas game this weekend, with David Ash handing off to Malcolm Brown on a Statue of Liberty play. Brown took it to the house, although I’m blocked by someone jumping up in front of me.

Heck of a fake, however.

If you look at the numbers, pretty much any of the numbers, the Texas Longhorns don’t have any chance of beating the Oklahoma Sooners Saturday in the Red River Shootout (as it will always be known, as far as I’m concerned). And, going into the season, I would have agreed.

But, something strange happened on the way to winning our first four games: I began to believe in this team.

Don’t get me wrong, I still think the most likely …

Looking back at the blog, I just realized that I hadn’t posted any pictures from the season-opening Rice-Texas game. So, here they are, very overdue.

We have new seats this year, lower deck, west side, next to the south end zone. I certainly don’t miss the long walk to the upper deck, but the view is very different.

On the upper deck, we could see everything well all through the game. With these seats, it’s either a very good view, …

Texas A&M’s road trip to the SEC had major brakes put on it this week. Baylor has refused to waive their right to sue the SEC over the recruitment of Texas A&M.

This is in contrast to their verbal agreement not to sue given two weeks ago. But at that point, it looked like the Big 12 Conference would survive A&M’s departure. With OU looking west, that won’t happen.

I can’t blame Baylor for taking this stance. They haven’t been …
