Texas goes down for the first time in 08.

Well tonight I watched every down of the Texas @ Texas Tech game and can say this game had my emotions going nuts throughout. For most of the first 3 quarters TTU looked dominant almost like they couldn't be touched. They were in Colt McCoy's face throughout the game. However when the fourth quarter rolled around it was Texas chance to shine. They played very well and at one point even took there first lead of the game going up 33-32 but TTU would make a drive that would eventually end with a 28 yd TD pass to Crabtree with 1 second left. Unfortunately Texas wasn't able to pull out this game but I think they still have a very good shot of making it into the title game.

After this week I would say that the top 10 teams would have to be

1. Alabama - Still undefeated
2. Penn State - Undefeated but inactive this week.
3. Texas Tech - Simply because they are undefeated and beat Texas.
4. Oklahoma - Have dominated all season long with exception of Texas game.
5. Texas - A brutal stretch of games against 4 top 11 teams during that span 3-1.
6. Oklahoma State - There only loss is against Texas.
7. Florida - Nice win against Georgia, loss against a weak team though.
8. USC - Much the same as Florida loss against a weak team.
9. Utah - These guys have been flying under the radar all Season
10. Boise State - Much like 2 years ago this team is looking good in a non BCS conference.

While I have a lot of Big XII teams in there right now only Texas has played the toughest part of their schedule so this will be shaken up quite a bit. Depending on the way things pan out I think Texas still has a legitimate shot at make the BCS title game as long as they win out.
