Kansas Jayhawks Beat Down Texas

Just a couple of weeks ago most college basketball fans, including myself, thought Kansas’ visit to Austin would decided which school would go on to win the Big 12 regular season title. Both teams had been ranked #1 at different points in the season and seemed like they were on a collision course.

That was before Texas was exposed as just another college basketball team with mediocre guard play and before Kansas established themselves as the only team capable of winning a Big 12 road game. So instead of a battle for the top spot, the Longhorns were merely trying to close the gap between the Big 1 and the other 11.

The Jayhawks improved to 23-1 (9-0) with an 80-68 victory at Texas that wasn’t as close as the final score indicates. Kansas took charge midway through the first half, forcing the Longhorns into 17 turnovers versus only 6 assists. Senior point guard Sherron Collins almost out-assisted Texas by himself as he dished out 5 and scored 15 points.

Two tough road games, Texas A&M and Missouri, remain on the Jayhawks Big 12 schedule, but with every other team in the conference already earning three league losses, Kansas’ win Monday night locked up the regular season title and #1 seed in the Big 12 tourney.

Turnovers and Injuries Doom Texas

8th January 2010 by thesportsfag under College Football

I’ve been disappointed in a lot of things in my life, there was Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, the guy with the big feet…well you get the point. But never had I experienced what was close to outright sports depression as when I saw Colt McCoy get knocked out of the BCS title game.

To say that I was a little bummed is like saying Porky Pig has a slight speech impediment. Forget about staring at his hot ass all night long, I was mostly bummed because I was being cheated out of what I thought would’ve been one of the best college football championship games ever played.

Garrett Gilbert is cute

With Colt McCoy, Texas and Alabama were even. Without Colt McCoy, game plans were altered on both sides and the BCS title game turned into a snoozer for the better part of an hour. Alabama turned extremely conservative offensively and Texas backup QB Garret Gilbert tried to overcome nerves solely on the strength of his rocket arm.

Side note: Gilbert’s really cute and he’s gotta cannon for an arm, however, I’ll still take Colt’s ass.

Back to the game, with McCoy getting x-rays on his injured shoulder, Gilbert completed just one pass in the first half. With Alabama playing not to lose for most of the third quarter, the game was about as exciting as waiting for your partner to orgasm after you’ve completed yours. And then the unexpected happen.

Gilbert faked a short route, looked off a defender and delivered a rope to a streaking Jordan Shipley who caught it in stride and raced for the end zone. Suddenly, down only 24-13, these steers had some fight in ‘em. On Texas’ next possession Gilbert took something off the ball and floated another TD pass to a wide open Shipley, and with a 2-point conversion the Longhorns trailed 24-21.

Texas got the ball back again down by three, deep in their own territory with just a few minutes left in the game. Could a true freshmen quarterback who couldn’t hit the broad side of a drag queen in the first half really rally his team from an 18-point deficit against the #1 team in the country at the Rose Bowl?

Hells No!

Mark Ingram kisses the crystal ball

A sack from Gilbert’s blind side, a fumble and the game was over, Alabama wins the national championship. Turnovers, the one factor you can’t predict, decides the game.

There was the controversial interception on a shuffle pass, which was returned for a TD in the closing minute of the first half for Alabama, and there was the fumble at the end of the game which stood out, however Texas turned the ball over a total of five times.

In the end, it was as Texas head coach Mack Brown had predicted in his pre-game ABC interview, “whoever wins the turnover battle will win the game.”

Alabama won the game 37-21 and the turnover battle by three.

Mack’s the Daddy

10th December 2009 by thesportsfag under College Football

As Sugar Daddies go, USA Today reports that Mack Brown of Texas will be the top paid coach in the Football Bowl Subdivision next season when he earns $5.1M, USC’s Pete Carroll is second coming in at $4.4M.

Many writers and sports fans have long argued that athletic programs bring in so much money to their respective schools that coaches deserve their handsome salaries. However, according to this report Texas is 1 of 25 athletics programs that are in the black.

Clearly football is the major driver of revenue for most athletic programs but what is not known is how many athletic programs would be in the black were it not for football.

Highest-paid coaches

Mack Brown, Texas – $5.1M
Pete Carroll, USC – $4.4M
Bob Stoops, Oklahoma – $4.3M
Urban Meyer, Florida – $4.0M
Nick Saban, Alabama – $3.9M

At almost every Bowl Subdivision school the revenue generated from the football program enables the athletic department to offer scholarships for non-revenue generating sports such as swimming, golf, etc… While these salaries may be out of whack when compared to other university faculty it’s clear that money spent to develop a top tier football program is a good return on investment.

Texas and Alabama, Initial Thoughts

6th December 2009 by thesportsfag under College Football

Initial thoughts on the BCS championship game which will obviously evolve throughout the month as injuries occur or, more than likely, an arrest happens.

Looking at the entire body of work, Alabama appears to be the better team. In football the better team doesn’t always win, just ask USC who Texas beat in the 2005 BCS championship game. We will never know for sure if TCU or Cincinnati would have been able to beat either Texas or Alabama.

Before we all concede the game to Alabama based on their performance against Florida let’s remember they were almost beat by an inferior Auburn team the week before. How Mack Brown and Nick Saban use this next month to prepare their respective teams and what mindset they come into the game with will be the deciding factor.

For Saban it’s a chance to exorcise the demons of a Utah beat down in last year’s Sugar Bowl.

McCoy and Shipley Take On Reesing

20th November 2009 by thesportsfag under College Football

With a win Saturday against Kansas, or next Thursday against rival Texas A&M, Texas wraps up the Big 12 South title and will face the winner of this week’s Nebraska / Kansas State game in the Big 12 championship.

Kansas is in turmoil both on the field and off. The Jayhawks have lost five straight and only once this season have held an opponent to less than 30 points. Former players are speaking out against uncomfortably named head coach Mark Mangino’s (real close to mangina, like vagina) verbal abuse.

The Longhorns are on a roll and Colt McCoy has the next four games to make a statement for the Heisman Trophy. McCoy’s roommate and fellow hottie Jordan Shipley will return to kickoff duties this week following the suspension of D.J. Monroe. I expect Texas to roll and possibly cover as 28-point favorites.

It’s a night game which gives us gay sports fans a much better look at Colt McCoy’s ass through those Texas football pants. And while Colt’s bubble butt looks mighty meaty, don’t forget to get a look at Jordan Shipley’s muscular ass as well. I don’t know which one I prefer more?

Butt my favorite hottie in this game may just be Kansas quarterback Tood Reesing, seen here boozing it up Jay Cutler style.

Florida and Texas take care of business

1st November 2009 by SportsFags under College Football

Florida and Texas appear to be gathering momentum as they roll through the most difficult portions of their 2009 schedule. Led by Tim Tebow and Colt McCoy, much was expected of the offenses, however, the Longhorns and Gators are making some noise on the defensive side of the ball.

Tim Tebow surpassed Herschel Walker's SEC record for most rushing touchdowns

On Saturday the Gators held Georgia to less than 300 yards and forced four turnovers. The previous week, against Mississippi State, the Gators allowed only 237 yards and forced three more turnovers. In it’s last three games, Texas, has faced three potent offenses (Oklahoma, Missouri and Oklahoma State) and surrendered a total of 34 points.

With Alabama struggling offensively, the bye week could not have come at a better time for the Tide. However, Greg McElroy, isn’t Tebow or McCoy, and he doesn’t have the offensive weapons the Gators and Longhorns are able to deploy. With games remaining against LSU and at Auburn, I don’t expect Alabama to stay undefeated.

Iowa, TCU, Cincinnati and possibly a once-beaten LSU team could slip into the BCS title game under the right circumstances but most college football fans, without an allegiance to one of those teams, is looking forward to a match up of the Longhorns and Gators. I don’t think it’s an over stating things to say that, if it happens, Tebow versus McCoy will be this generation’s Magic Johnson versus Larry Bird. The two best teams led by college football’s two biggest stars.

Top 25 College Football Hottie Preview #16 Jordan Shipley

25th August 2009 by SportsFags under Football Jocks (American football)

Longhorn hottie Jordan Shipley has been Colt McCoys roommate for so long they would be considered domestic partners in some states. The 2009 season will be Shipley’s sixth in Austin and it marks the fourth consecutive year in which he has lived with his buddy Colt. The unique relationship between Colt and Jordan goes beyond just being roomies though. Not only are they friends and roomies but their fathers played college football together. And, each has a really beefy ass (see below).

The NCAA granted Shipley a medical hardship which allows him to return for his sixth and final season. Shipley’s career at Texas has ranged from full of promise, to injury plagued, to a break out year in 2008 in which he was responsible for over 1500 all-purpose yards. McCoy and Shipley look to once again be the catalysts to one of college football’s most explosive offenses. Jordan sat out spring drills to recover from shoulder surgery and has been plagued with knee and hamstring issues throughout his career.

At 6-0 and 190 lbs, Shipley is considered small by NFL standards but you can’t teach speed and Shipley can burn. Jordan has been named to just about every offensive pre season awards watch lists including the Walter Camp Player of the Year, Fred Biletnikoff and Maxwell awards watch list. His kickoff return in 2008 versus Oklahoma, the only kick return in the history of the Red River Rivalry, will forever be remembered as the play that turned the game around for Texas. Jordan stepped up his game against the stiffest competition last year. Consider this, in addition to the kickoff return against OU he also pulled in 11 receptions for 112 yards and 1 TD. Against Texas Tech his 45 yard punt return in the 3rd ignited a deflated Longhorn squad. Finally, against Oklahoma State he set a school record with 15 passes for 168 yards.

And, if Big 12 fans thought this season marks the end of seeing a Shipley in a Longhorn uniform, Jordan’s younger brother Jaxon appears headed to UT in 2011.

Top 25 College Football Hottie Preview – #23 Colt McCoy’s Ass

18th August 2009 by SportsFags under Football Jocks (American football)

He’s The Real McCoy alright. Not since the Marlboro Man has there been a better named Texan than Colt McCoy.

An often-cited story relates to McCoy’s birth: his parents were from Texas but his father, Brad McCoy, was working just across the Texas border in Hobbs, New Mexico. Brad McCoy reportedly brought a shoe-box of Texas dirt to the hospital and slid it under the bed so that McCoy could be born “over Texas soil”. The story may or may not be true, as his father has chosen to “plead the fifth” when asked to confirm it.

Is there any truth to the rumor that Colt and Tim Tebow were fraternal twins separated at birth? OK, that seems ridiculous but consider how much these two have in common from their leadership abilities and football accomplishments to their faith in god. How does a Heisman trophy candidate manage school, football, faith and all of the volunteer activities at the same time? Obviously, he’s not doing what I did in college, drink, gamble on sports and pretend to like women.

McCoy spends three days a week reading to elementary school children and tutoring underprivileged children. And in 2006, Colt McCoy swam 300 yards across a lake to help save the life of a man who was having a seizure on a small dock across the lake. Do you think as a baby, was he put into a small spacecraft and sent to earth by his father Jor-El? Seriously, someone needs to see if he’s dating a girl named Lois and majoring in journalism at UT.

With his resume of off the field activities it’s easy to overlook what he does on the field. Barring injury in 2009 he will battle Tebow and Bradford each week for Heisman Trophy consideration. The three way battle will continue in 2010 as we cover who’s going #1 in next years NFL draft.

He’s known for having the best arm in football, and I would add the finest ass in the NCAA. We’ve all seen QBs who look better shirtless but look at his ass in those Texas see through pants. Hook ‘em!

Just imagine his ‘longhorn’ roaming around free in there while he’s on the field. You can almost read the brand on his jock strap through those pants. And look at the junk in the pic below.

I don’t know about you but I’m excited to watch McCoy battle for the Heisman and can’t remember a year when college football has had three leaders of such good character as McCoy, Bradford and Tebow.

And for all of you ass men, enjoy the season.
