You may think that the Kansas game is boring match-up for the Horns this weekend; so let me give you all the reasons that the Horns’ game with Kansas on Saturday will be interesting.

1. It’s the first home game in six weeks.

2. Tyrone Swoopes might throw a pass

3. Texas hasn’t won five straight games since 2009 so we should be worried about this game.

4. It’s the first weekend of deer hunting season so there will be lots of good seats for sale cheap.

5. It’s going to be a beautiful day to be at a game.

6. If you’re not at that game you get to watch it on the totally awesome Longhorn Network. 

7. Kansas has a good defense that held Baylor to 59.

8. It’s always interesting to see what cute outfit Charlie Weiss will wear.

Nick Saban

Put me down as not in love with the idea of Nick Saban being the next Texas head football coach. I know it’s just monopoly money but $8.5 million seems absurd and too mercenary for my taste. Also, Saban is pretty much a jerk who, in his own style, makes even more ridiculous public statements than Mack Brown does. Finally, I’m ususally skeptical of the sure thing.
