That defense is one of the most unsung defenses Texas ever fielded. The DL was astounding. It's amazing how terrible the offense was. 

It was a great defense, terrible offense, horrific kicking.

We lost 3 games that year just because of missed FG's. 10-22 on the year, with 3 missed XP's.

Dude should be the Surl’s mascot player 

Honorary “Burnt Ends” player?  They may set his pre-snap position really close to a Tackle L/R, so damned near a Tight End position.  It’s all Sark’s Madness going forward!  I look forward to sitting back and watching.

Hook’em!!!

I remember how great Priest Holmes was in his NFL career, but rarely remember his time on The 40.  I just remember saying back then that we had “that” in our backfield and didn’t really use  his to his ability.

I actually liked Corvallis more than Eugene when my brother was looking at Pac schools, but for a football trip UO would definitely be a bigger deal. It's just not as cool as the lakefront stadium in Seattle.

Yeah, my daughter is going to Oregon State next year (we live in the Portland Metro)- Corvallis is way cooler as a town to me than Eugene- but obviously the experience at Autzen is going to far surpass Reser, especially these days. Autzen is small, but gets fuckin loud. The whole stadium going nuts during "Shout" is cool and feels more authentic than some mass sing alongs since they've been doing it for a while since they filmed Animal House there. Duck riding out on his motorcycle, etc... They developed a unique shtick

It’s alright to be little bitty, unless you’re a turbohyped jagger who turns around and goes 4 for 47 across 16 games for a season. We’ve got a Matt Davis clone on our hands, folks. Your basic Jeremy Jones. Courtnee Garcia is going to question his production. 

Parker looks like every bit where a famous QB dons a disguise and pretends to be a walk-on or whatever.

I met him outside Buffalo Club one night.  This hits close to home.

He’s putting up 750 yards and 10 TDs on the season. 

Dread him, run from him, but jaggy mcjaggerson is coming for you.

CTJ has accomplished what few in history have ever done: united the entire Shaggy/Surly universe (except CTJ) in hoping that Livingstone has the greatest receiving season in Texas history. The trolling would continue for an eternity.

Priest Holmes and James Brown are responsible for that program’s demise.

I like you and your contributions SA, but that quote is pretty harsh.  I knew JB when he was a teen in BMT.

No but I’ve attend an OU sucks at Nebraska in the early ‘90s, stationed at Fort Sill and just a CFB fan.  
 

I then flew with the McNeese team to play NU in 2002.  What a great experience and definitely worth the money spent.

The Lincoln locals were so hospitable every where we went.  McNeese was in the RZ in the waning minutes with the game on the line, and the sea of Red really became alive!

This after having a series of amazing kickers. I just kind of took it for granted we'd have an NFL quality field goal kicker year after year. We've had quite a few since then, last year notwithstanding. 

Still managed to keep the scoring streak alive, even with that shitty offense. It took Greg Davis hamstringing an offense with Vince Young and Cedric Benson 13 years later for that to end. Not that I'm still embittered by that. Nope. Not me.

He was injured a lot.

Indeed. Less than 1300 yds playing across 4 years. By his last year, he was behind both Ricky and Shon Mitchell. I don't think anyone believed he would go on to achieve those monster NFL seasons 5 years after his time at Texas, including the Chiefs.

Kai Money is going to stuff him in a locker.

I think we got shutout again at least once under Charlie.  I was blacked out and/or just went and did something else for many games during those year.
