Longhorns fans: Say your prayers

I’ve been waiting all week to see if the daily’s sportwriters would ask Coach Metaphor why he just sat back and waited for his players to voluntarily spend some extra time watching film of BYU. Still hadn’t happened by Friday,this morning.

Like why he didn’t order them to do it, put up a roster for them to sign after doing it. I mean, what did he do other than put exhorting signs up in the locker room? Spend his time at the mall?

I have a bad feeling about the UCLA game tonight, as I think most Longhorns fans do. The Dallas Morning Snooze has already predicted worse luck for the Texas offense than the 41-7 drubbing they got from BYU. Wouldn’t surprise me a bit.

But I’ll say a few prayers and hope for better.

UPDATE:  Swoopes was much better this week until the 4th quarter pressure was on him and then UCLA won it late 20-17. (Unfortunately, he is no Kenny Hill.) Even with their star QB out injured, the Bruins had a penetrating ground game the Longhorns’ defense just couldn’t stop.
