NOT QUITE
I thought it might be too much for such a young Longhorns team - those three tough games closing out the regular season.
Sure enough ... it was.
As much as I hate to say it, Texas was outplayed by the Aggies in their 38-30 loss. Maybe some of that had to do with the home team knowing it was Coach Fran's last game ... maybe not.
Colt McCoy's day was below average - 17-of-32 for 229 yards, one TD and one pick. He also rushed for 24 yards on 9 carries, but the telling statistic is that he was sacked 4 times. Chalk that up to a highly emotional and more experienced Aggie defensive line making it tough on the UT O-line.
So, maybe it is back to the Alamo Bowl. We'll see.
