Having a new quarterback this year is a good excuse for the offense but the Longhorn defense is almost all Juniors and Seniors so their poor performance against an unranked team was especially discouraging.

Right! That's the most frustrating part of it!
If a team comes out and beats us straight out, that's one thing, but all of the errors are inexcusable - dropped balls, dumb penalties and the TO's were stupid mistakes. Some high school teams can play better than that.
Transition time is for someone like the Aggies, Texans aren't going to be happy or put up with it. Mack needs to step up on this one and not go soft, protecting his players and coordinators. We already knew our offense wasn't up to par, but it feels like they are self-destructing. The defense even started imploding.
I haven't seen them play this badly in a long time. They can kiss their title run goodbye. It's over and it was wide open.
