The University of Texas used to be considered college football's most elite program. The school has taken home nine National Championships. But after the departure of Mac Brown in 2013, the Longhorns have been almost unrecognizable. The team has managed to accumulate just one double digit win season over the past decade. Despite the struggles on the field, we’ve had plenty of conversations as to if Texas is truly back. The team's lone double digit win season this decade ended in a Sugar Bowl victory. That led quarterback Sam Ehlinger to announce Texas' return to College Football royalty while lifting the trophy. The team hasn’t eclipsed 8 wins since. But the Longhorns may finally have a chance to solidify the team's No. 3 ranking this weekend. After upsetting Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide, Oklahoma is the next team on the schedule. The Sooners impressive start has launched them to No. 12 in the country. Quarterback Dylan Gabriel looks like a legit dual threat, and head coach Brent Venables has done some excellent work on the defensive side of the football. And with expectations in Austin growing, this weekend's matchup could be the perfect measuring stick for one of college football's most historic programs.…
no idea why this loser hangs out on our board besides trying to be around greatness and hopefully absorb some by osmosis? Oh well, hopefully we play Texas on a bowl and shut that loser up and away from our board.

I fully expect them to win tomorrow. But comparing our programs over the last 13 years, even the last 3– our worst during that time— puts them to shame. Delusional coot fan base.

I guess we will see where we are in a few years. We are entering anew world. I think Clemson is really good in 2 years though. I don't keep up with Texas, their recruiting or NIL situation.

Which hasnt mattered but is beginning to matter and will likely matter more down the road given NIL and free agency.
Not that Texas folks really worry or know about Clemson beyond Dabo and the occasional Texas-based bowl game.
Shoot, until I met my wife, I honestly thought Auburn was in Georgia, Clemson was in Alabama and a Gamecock was NC State's mascot.
It just never mattered.
Clemson's got a nice vibe and a fairly decent stadium as ACC programs go. It's a fun way to spend several Saturdays in the fall and the dern tickets and parking are free. When in Rome.

Left's great campaign, "poisoning the well", simultaneously coordinating a massive expansion of the Welfare State and bloating the electorate with same human detritus, political human sheep they shepherd across the former US southern border. The most glaring commonalities found in all third world countries:a booming uncontrollable welfare state, absence of border enforcement, an uncontrolled migration of opposing cultures and ethnicities giving rise to multiple language barriers, This mutlticultural migration always eradicates this 1st world trait: populqce shares a common language. The potlucksoup of savage cultures always share in theast key ingredient for the devolution into a 3 world country classification. They always share a strong resistance to assimilation which leads to chaos, more corruption & a culling of the heard via disease or mass execution by corrupt governing fa fac

Hopeful.
Dont recall comparing my Horns to the great Tiger teams of the increasingly-distant past.
I grew up watching my Cowboys win Super Bowls. So when they stopped, I really held on tight to the memory and talked lots of
guff to anyone who reminded me the good times were prolly over. So I get where y'all are now. It sucks but it'll pass.
But, yeah, I expect to see the Horns playing for a natty before too long, sure. I mean...who wouldn't?

Agreed. I live in San Antonio and i noticed a few more UT flags than normal this year. Man do I hate the University of Texas. I have gotten way too much enjoyment the last 10-15 years. I dont think Alabama is quite up to Alabama standards. Ok is coming off a dreadful season. We may not know how good Texas is until much later. Tomorrow we are all Ok fans.

Lord have mercy. Nothing but Cowboys stars and Spurs jerseys and everyone asking "What's buckeye, vato?!"
If youve not been to Rosario's on St. Mary's for the mole, give it a shot.
You should also head on up to DKR, scalp you a ticket and take in the awesomeness.
It's like the Horseshoe but with prettier scenery and better fight songs.

Which prolly explains why it's a TL;DR.
Im hopeful we'll beat the land grabbers tomorrow.
It's a real rivalry between two great and proud programs tho so anything can happen.
If we win, I feel good about the rest of the sked and like our chances making the CFP.
Be nice to close out with a BXII title and natty before launching into the SEC where the big boy ball gets played!!!!

We need to wear it like the badge of honor that it is. He wouldn’t be here if it were not for the enormous amount of success our program has had over the last decade. We don’t even play those guys and our success has caused this dude to have such an inferiority complex that he finds the need to troll our board. What a loser but send him my regards.

Im unsure whether to recap my other reasons.
But I will:
Married into a Clemson family many moons ago.
Several generations of Clemson graduates going back to early 20th century.
None are what you'd call casual fans.
Some are what you'd call boosters.
Some are Gamecocks. They have their reasons.
But here's the thing: none really over-identify with the thing.
Maybe you should try that approach. Being a superfan doesnt seem to agree with you.

Texas was never the most elite college football program

In fact they have this reputation of being a college football blue blood and they are but their history is not as strong as you would think.
They only have 4 national titles and once since 1971. They had strong decades in the 60s, 70s and 00s but had multiple lengthy down periods in the 80s, 90s and since 2010 now.

all hat, no cattle, is what youre saying.
But you're in over your head. We've won more nattys than alot of programs. Including Clemson.
It is what it is.
It may kinda stick in your bonnet a little and Im sorry it stings. But it's still four, and four's still more than three and so's five which is a distinct possibility should we manage to not pull up lame tomorrow and lose, say, 28-7 to an inferior.
Otherwise, we got a pretty straight shot at the CFP if we can hold on and win out.
Not a mayo bath in sight.

I dont understand how a mayo bath reference carries that kind of significance. If I were a Gamecock, I'd say so. I wouldnt pretend not to be one. But Im not.
I am a Longhorn tho and was around for ... (checking) ... (stand by) ... two of Texas' four official nattys. They have nine on the books but who's counting?
Anyway, you have a weird approach to history with your "didnt exist when it happened so mustve not happened" thing.
I wasnt around for VE day. Does it mean I shouldnt count it and thus go and dust off my conversational German?

When it comes to sports I do not celebrate the fact CU did something in 1911 or whatever came before 1962. I think the one thing most college football fans can agree on is that it was only a matter of time before Texas, Usc and a couple of others rose to the top. We all know that Texas and some other big city schools will have more NIL money and get to the top and stay. I can almost bet that this team doesn't play in the mayo bowl because we will either win out or possibly get beat one more time or this team will be like a Mack Brown coached team and fall apart and we will end up in the pinstripe bowl.

Isnt that one more than three?
Kinda feels like y'all are still riding in our dregs then, don't it?
I worry y'all wont get to four before we get to five. Then what'll we have to compare and argue over?
Baseball titles?
Nope. Y'all kinda light in that area.
Basketball? Hehe. Yeah. We're both sucking air there although we have enjoyed a few more tourney berths than y'all.
Volleyb-...naw. We win that one.
Swimming? Does Clemson swim? Chalk it Horns.
Golf? Yikes. We trump that one, too.
Man. It's a really short conversation, come to think of it.
Y'all should embrace the charm and uniqueness of the Clemson brand. It's not a championship machine like UT. It has panache and win y'all win it's extra special. Like when Rudy gets the sack.

Over the course of football history, Texas has been a Blue Blood team due to having a lot of money. Like all teams, they have been up and down, but to say they have not been one of the best is silly.
The QB they have now (Ewers) is very good and has already made more $$ from OHS and Texas than many pros make. He is very good.
Texas is very likely to make the CFP this season.
I see no reason to hate on TEXAS. I would rather see them in the CFP than UGA or a Big10 team.

I would like to see Texas win it but just do not understand why someone wants to come to another teams site and act like Texas is the king of football. I guess we should be proud that we have reached that status in Football where others come to talk trash so they don't feel bad about their small manhood.

I forgot to thank you for making me and my beloved Horns the subject of an entire TNETs thread. And rent free! Im not even a member!
I thought only Judge Keller pulled that kinda of audience around here.
Reckon its like RE Lee said at ??Fredericksburg?? (Or maybe Gettysburg? whatever. one of the burgs.)
He said:
"TEXANS ALWAYS MOVE 'EM."

My mother's father and uncle were A&M grads (hard to pull for them with Jimbo though). She attended TCU and her first husband was a Clemson grad, who was killed in WWII. She said she never liked "the University of anywhere!" That was great advice!
Texas has a chance to make the CFP this year but I will bet you that Clemson makes the Top 4 before Texas does it again, if they even get there this year.

I do not loathe all Aggies. Lots of Aggies in the family and they are great.
Of course my head bows and hand over heart
for the good Clemson man in your lineage who did not come home.
Our family sent a couple of Clemson '39 men into Normandy and on across Europe. They came home but left alot of themselves over there.
aTm with its solid ROTC tradition is not unlike Clemson in that regard. It is about the only Texas school to which I'd send my out-of-state dollars should my kids express and interest.
My alma mater, OTOH, has veered too far off-course in some key areas.
But to football, I dont think Clemson'll be sniffing the top 10 anytime soon so I'd take that top-4 bet.
Texas has alot to prove and not alot of credibility outside of Texas. And thats understandable given our long and fraught dry spell.

Thanks to the Clemson '39 men who served our country!!
After Saturday I am not as confident about our trajectory back to relevance. Texas certainly has the resources to reestablish themselves back at the top. We will see how it turns out for both!!

from a football standpoint.
Turnovers. Just kill you everytime. Longhorns got off on the wrong foot and never really caught up in a rivalry game that doesnt suffer many mistakes.
That loss'll likely keep them out of the money come CFP selection time.
Meanwhile, Clemson looked sleepy. As someone in the stands, I *was sleepy.

Don’t “Meth” with Texas. And that meth that flows there is crystal clear.

was the best
was the most elite
college football era ever
each Clemson and Alabama team from that era would have beat any team i. country over the history of college football
the only team that could compete would be Miamis The U years
end of story
if you don't know
you literally just don't known

I was at a couple of those Clemson championship games -- the 45-40 L and the 44-16 thrubbing.
Again...I hate to repeat myself...but I married well and have enjoyed many great Clemson moments because of it.
Its been fun watching my loved ones enjoy them, too, given their enormous commitment to the school and athletics program.
I particularly enjoyed the ND beatdown in Dallas. Maybe enjoyed it more than the Bama beatdown that followed given it was in my beloved Cowboys stadium.
I look forward to hopefully enjoying watching my Horns in a natty game in the near future although I know how hard it is to get there and I doubt it would involve Clemson if we did.
Alright. Rolling over to Clemson. See you in DV. Im the one in the Longhorns jersey -- #16/Lawrence.
Buy you an overpriced undercooked hot dog.

Just so everyone knows, all Texas fans are as annoying as this fellow. They just love to pontificate. Talk about how great the Horns are. One marginally good season in forever, and they think they own college football. Pride comes before a fall. Especially when you have nothing much to be proud of. “Distinct possibility they win a Natty this year?” We shall see, Come and Take It. We shall see.

Although theyre spittin' the bit today. Im worn out and its only halftime.
I dont know any buckeye fans and cant speak to whether theyre a sorry lot. I assume theyre a good and hearty group who have managed to thrive despite adequate vitamin D.

I'm afraid after the Cotton Bowl belly-landing, Im too jarred to do much more than stare into space, wondering what might've been, and figure out which of the four evils to pull for in the playoffs.
Between UT and Clemson, maybe I'll just turn off the TV altogether during bowl season and head to Aspen.
