I think I am too drunk off of football euphoria to do much with this one tonight.  Let\u2019s just say that I told several people that the Dawgs may be in for a fight because too many people were worrying about revenge vs. the Old Ball Coach.  I do not have huge expectations for the Dawgs this year, but surely this one could be attributed to over confidence.  Then again, maybe Shockley just sucks.<\/p>\n<p>What about Texas?  I think I predicted something like a 22-17 victory for the Horns.  The key was always going to be if Vince could have some success in the air, and he did throw around the ball enough to keep things interesting.  Of course the Longhorn\u2019s defense also managed to do the \u201cbend, but don\u2019t break thing\u201d the entire game.  Hell of a game, and Vince Young is truly the man.  This is one of the best games I have seen in recent memory.  I am sure Kevin is suffering, but gosh darn it, what a heck of a game.<\/p>\n<p>Even my adopted team (North Texas) came through with a 14-7 victory over Middle Tennessee state to continue the Mean Green\u2019s dominance of the Sun Belt conference.<\/p>\n<p>Enough for tonight.  Hook \u2019em; sick \u2019em!
