Texas Longhorns Spring Game Breakdown
The Texas Longhorns went 8-4 in 2012 in the regular season and capped their season with a bowl victory. For most teams that would be a great season but for the storied Longhorns program it probably came as a bit of a disappointment for most especially when coupled with their 1-3 record against ranked teams in the regular season.

It’s time now to turn the page.
If you read the recap of my recent trip to Lincoln, Nebraska – the second leg of the MSF-La Quinta College Football Road Trip – you know how much fun I had spending the weekend with one of my favorite people in what is now one of my favorite college towns.

Ricky Williams polishes his statue at Texas
Unemployed retired NFL star Ricky Williams apparently has a lot of free time on his hands these days. Enough so that he was seen on Friday in Austin polishing his statue in front of Darrel K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. I'm hoping this is either a publicity stunt (it was originally tweeted by Texas associate athletic director for media relations John Blanco), or just sheer...

The following bit of signage now appears in Austin, Texas, home of the Texas Longhorns. Texas will respond by lighting $4 million on [...]
Longhorns unveil new practice uniforms
/vomits
Way too much black, don’t you think? The traditional Texas uniforms are thought to be some of the best in all of college football. So, what is driving this change? Well, for starters, money. It gives the school another jersey to sell to diehards, putting a few more bucks in the coffers. This isn’t out of the norm for what many programs are now doing. Luckily for Longhorn...
