This was incredible. We produced two humongous failures literally 5 minutes apart. Failures you probably don't see once every 5+ years (Hail Mary+ fumble out of the end zone). It is a statistical anomaly that only a Dave Aranda coached team can pull off. Unbelievable!

Every loss here on out helps accelerate AVE from getting canned

I do not think Baylor will get past this. Partly because they just won't, and partly because they are not a good team.


No team under Aranda could

On a positive note, since it is so late the newspapers won't cover this meltdown and our texas brethren's won't know it happened. Oh that's right, everyone else already knows we are a joke.



I wish you were right, but I live in Austin and my phone is blowing up. Seems quite a few were watching and I'm taking some serious grief for how this one ended. Unfortunately I have no defense!

I hate to blame the defense in this game.

You had a chance t put the nail in the coffin but we played scared and settled for a long field goal that Hankins absolutely choked on

Why were there not 10 DBs in the endzone?!?! How do you let that happen?!? Fire him on the tarmac


We playcall to lose, it's really perplexing that a pair of coaches can be this thick skulled.

Up 7 points,

1st and 10 at the Colorado 26 yard line with 3:54.

We had a 98.3% chance of winning the game!!!!

Man....that just sucks all the way around. We had no business losing this one.


.. I had my fingers all warmed up ready to make a Welcome back to the Big XII post, but alas.



I mean this was a classic big 12 matchup two historic bottom feeders trading incompetence into overtime, neither making a play to win the instead doing everything but the bare minimum when needed.

Both these teams are horrible and might not win again this year.

We played for a long field goal.......in wet conditions. It's almost impossible to even contemplate the stupidity of the strategy.

We need to start standing up to the administration. Like at the end of the year on some nondescript weekend, have a huge crowd in front of the AD office to let him know his services are no longer wanted.

Or is it? Have you been watching this coaching staff?

Any captain who's not throwing punches in the locker room right now doesn't deserve to be a captain

That was because BU was PREDICTABLE on their play calling. PLAIN A$$ Vanilla!! We hadn't been running on them all night and we run it right up the middle to gain five or six yards to kick it in the rain. Hell, EVERYONE including the f'n viewing audience knew. Where was this so called OC guru $**+aval. Damn Losers! Loser U.

That's when I made my "don't be a puss Dave" post because I knew we'd be kicking a FG. It's just what his teams do. Fired it would be long. I figured we'd miss

I'm rarely wrong.

My only regret is I didn't take the ML late in the game for colorado because…..Dave

Mack Brown: I had the most embarrassing loss of the weekend.
UNC's Brown takes blame but says no plans to resign after blowout loss - ESPN

Dave Aranda: Hold my tap water.

Just looking at Colorado's remaining schedule, I don't see even two more wins. They'll be underdogs in all but one of them.

Really bad team. Took a massive effort to hand them a W tonight.

Proud of the effort tonight against a good team in a hostile environment. Still a great chance for a bowl game with our schedule. If so, Aranda will get another year.

2 seconds left I meant

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Okay so legit question. If Aranda goes, who replaces him? UNC seems to be having serious discussion of getting Mack out. Dykes went from Championship game to getting blown out by SMU.

What is happening?

If this was a home game, we should have burned the stadium down.

I hope the rest of our games are on ESPN Ocho, the CW or Univision.

I think we are better on both offense and defense than last year.

Other than the field goal miss, special teams were great.

But Dave needs to get us to a bowl game or resign

Umm. We lost yardage. We'd have been better off kicking the FG on 1st down

As heartbroken as I am about this loss, I am also upset about the horrid level of armchair quaterbacking I am reading in the caustic comments. Our team played their hearts out and played wellmuch better than expected when this season began. We had zero turnovers until literally the last play. Our defense played well overall, and registered a bevy of sacks and pressures against a super-mobile scrambling QB. Were it not for the final play of regulation we would be hearing their praises sung. We had multiple players step up among our offense and special teams. We had one truly bad play that turned triumph into tragedy.

It's okay to cry, but this loss is not proof of incompetent coaching.

I am proud of this team. It deserves better fans than those who wrote some of the posts I've read tonight.
