Final in Austin: Cal 45, Texas 44. Heartbreak city.

So TV showed there was no partial block? Just a clean miss?

Texas LB Peter Jinkens said Ed Freeman was definitely hurt when he laid down on field. Shoulder injury. So I do apologize for poking fun.

LB Ed Freeman tells me he is out 6-8 weeks with shoulder injury. Will have X-ray today to decide if surgery needed.

Texas LB Peter Jinkens says he's coined  the phrase, "In Heard We Trust." But he's not making up any T-shirts. "Nah, I ain't no groupie."

Listening to the Texas players, it's clear nobody wants to criticize Tyrone Swoopes. Lots of "Things are different" quotes, though.

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

TCU 50, Texas 7: Longhorns won the coin toss! And it was downhill from there.

Black eyes of Texas: 'Horns get blanked by CycLOLOLOnes http://wp.me/p14QTT-1vKp

QuoteLonghorn Nation, meet rock bottom.

Coming into its Week 9 matchup with Texas, Iowa State was 2-5 and had given up 156 points during its three-game losing streak.  After 60 minutes of football in Ames, the final score was the Cyclones 24, the Longhorns 0.

Whitewashed by a team that was 103rd in the country in scoring defense at 33.9 points per game?  Yep, rock bottom can be the only place the Longhorns find themselves late Saturday night after that display of offensive ineptness (204 yards of offense)... and defensive deficiency (422 yards given up) against a team that fired its coordinator earlier in the week.

I'm told Charlie Strong "cussed out" his Texas staff after Iowa State loss, told them staff "had been out coached."


Strong said ISU dropped 8 in box, corners playing 8 yards off. "It was there to be taken."

Texas has completed its severance package with former AD Steve Patterson. He's guaranteed $1.4 million this year, $1.5 million for 2016-17.

As part of the formal agreement, signed by Patterson and UT's Greg Fenves, both parties will say nice things about each other.

Strong's offensive philosophy is 180 degrees from what they had been running for decades.  It will take him 4-5 seasons to get it rolling.

Today's win is also Texas' first true road win of the season and first road win over ranked opponent since 2012 (No. 20 Tech).

If this is true, Texas football fans are easy to please because A&M hasn't won a thing since joining the SEC, no SEC West Championship, no SEC Championship, I think the highest they have placed is 3rd 5th in the SEC West.
