    You couldn't really ask more of Gilbert during that game. Here kid, let's just throw you against the opposing team during the championship game where everything is on the line. Perform!

    "You've thrown 10 passes this season, right? Great. Fantastic. We need you to go in against the number one defense in the country."

    I'm amazed at how quickly he adapted. Because it was very clear that he didn't expect to be in the game at all and was nervous as all get-out when he was put in.

    probably telling himself "well, you were recruited to replace colt mccoy..."

    Two of those interceptions weren't his fault. One was a play that should have never been called, and the receiver bobbled it. The other the receiver bobbled it.

    And the fumble? He got hit by a mack-truck from his blind-side. Offensive Line let him down.

    But props to the Texas O-line for stepping up in the 3rd and 4th. They protected him just enough to allow him to pass to Shipley, despite us blitzing every single person.

    The MVP of the game was the defensive lineman who:

    Returned the interception for the touchdown.

    Caused and recovered the fumble at the 5 yard line.

    Took Colt McCoy out of the game on a clean hit.

    Yeah. I'd call that MVP alright.

    It is when you have a student season ticket package and no cable.

    NFL doesn't even offer the games streaming online.

    Bama played a fantastic game! I loved that Texas hit them in the mouth early with D and then Saban tried to make up for it. It was shaping up to be a great game and honestly with Gilbert's efforts it turned in to one again! I can't wait to watch him play these next few years!

    On to Basketball season. Hook 'EM!

    I really hope people don't boo him at the home opener next season. That would be hilarious and soul-crushingly sad at the same time.

    I really, really doubt this will happen

    hell if he threw five interceptions, I doubt it would happen

    He threw more touchdown passes than McElroy.

    More touchdowns, interceptions, fumbles, yards, completions, and attempts.

    I think.

    Basically outperformed McElroy in every stat!

    Oh hey, thank you ESPN stat of the game.

    McElroy threw for 58 yards. He attempts 11 passes and completed six.

    I think he might have done worse than Colt.

    If they can beat Kansas at home AND in the Big 12 tournament, maybe. A Big 12 title win against anyone would be a big improvement over past years.

    herbstreit is #1 on my shitlist

    first words out of his mouth in the leading moments of the play where gilbert fumbled it on the sack was "alabama has yet to get a sack this game" and i saw the guy moving up on the outside of the line and i was like fuck.

    sure enough.

    ingram played a hell of a game against probably the best run defense in college football. texas played badass given the circumstances.

    gilbert is gonna have fucking ice in his veins when hes out there next year
