Chris Spielman's wife, Stefanie, was never impressed by all the honors her husband received for being a star linebacker at Ohio State and in the NFL.

Congratulations, Texas Longhorns . Longhorns coach Mack Brown thinks Texas-'Bama is a great matchup.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- They didn't open the roof at Cowboys Stadium so God could watch Saturday's Big 12 title game, but as the clock struck zero and a great red wave descended onto the field to celebrate, Texas defensive end Sergio Kindle prayed that heaven gets ABC.

Hunter Lawrence's right toe and a beneficial review by officials Saturday night propelled Texas to Pasadena for next month's national championship game.

For the past decade, the Texas Longhorns have expanded or added to some part of Royal-Memorial Stadium almost every year.

No one covers University of Texas sports like the American-Statesman beat writers.

Defensive coordinator Will Muschamp has plenty of teaching points this week. There were enough concerns about missed tackles and defensive busts in the Longhorns' otherwise impressive victory against Kansas that gave Will Muschamp plenty of teaching points.

For Texas, Thanksgiving Day wasn't about style points or making a statement -- unless you were Colt McCoy taking a major step toward winning the Heisman Trophy.

Texas and Texas A&M don't play each other for championships anymore, and the state's biggest football rivalry has changed in other ways, too.

For months, Texas defensive end Sergio Kindle had no problems with metaphors. Through the Longhorns' first 11 victories, Kindle played with words much like he toyed with opposing offensive linemen, and there rarely was a week when he wasn't talking about a "momentum train" or a "moment in the light" or some other such description of UT's season.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I want to belatedly thank everyone who listens to my show , thank everyone who takes the time to read my posts here on Hair Balls, and thank all of the athletes, coaches, and fellow broadcasters who continue to do outlandishly stupid shit every day so I have something to talk/write about.

Texas leaned on its massive offensive line to push its lead to 35-21. After Sergio Kindle recovered Texas A&M's Christine Michael's fumble at the Texas 42, the Longhorns ran on every play on a 58-yard scoring drive against the Aggies.

By JIMMY BURCH COLLEGE STATION - From a numerology standpoint, tonight's opportunity is awash in irony for the third-ranked Texas Longhorns.Texas has a chance to clinch the first 12-0 regular-season record in school history.

Eleven games into the season and less than two weeks from possibly securing a place in the Bowl Championship Series title game, the Texas Longhorns' record is perfect.

Texas A&M reached bowl eligibility with offensive balance. To upset No. 3 Texas and give the ESPN audience a perfect antidote to tryptophan overload Thanksgiving night, the Aggies' best hope lies with quarterback Jerrod Johnson.

Colt McCoy fired the cannon. He banged the big drum. Then he left the field to chants of "Colt for Heisman!" There's still plenty of work to do for the quarterback of No.

Though Kansas did show grit in answering Texas scores in the second half, the Jayhawks never mounted a serious challenge, losing their sixth straight game after starting the season 5-0. 2. Would the Texas defense stay No.

They did not go out with a Hail Mary, or with a furious rally, or with a tension-filled goal-line stand, because that wouldn't have been their style.

Colt McCoy fired the cannon. He banged the big drum. Then he left the field to chants of "Colt for Heisman!" There's still plenty of work to do for the quarterback of No.
