Default Argh

Gideon hangs on to the easy interception and the fans in burnt organge storm the field. So stinkin' close.

And I was so looking forward to tell the annoying hipster to shove it. Dang.

Tex Tech goes to the big 12 champ game right?

Tech would go. OSU and OU would each have two losses, and Tech would win the tiebreaker against Texas.

The more complicated scenario is Texas beats Oklahoma beats Tech beats Texas.

Assuming none of the three has any other losses, there's no way to do a tie breaker by virtue of victory. In that case the rule states that the top-ranked BCS team goes to the Big 12 title game.

I was so happy when they did not get the INT and then blew the tackle, allowing the TD. I cheered and pumped my fists, feeling a bit of vindication watching Texas lose the game at the last second.

Then I sat down and realized that it still doesn't change that fateful 4th quarter, Vince f-ing Young and his stupid knee being on the ground.

My life is a travesty. Even being hip is of little consolation.
