TEXAS!!! #ut #40

RT @mikefinger: James Brown, who just got a big hand for being inducted into #UT hall of honor, looks like he could still beat Neb by 3 TDs.

This is not a late-arroiving crowd tonight. #ut

FIGHT #40

As expected, colt mccoy got a huge ovation, followed by jordan shipley. Chris hall bit his lip to keep from tearing. #ut

Senior night intros are done — we’ll miss those guys, they gave their hearts to the Horns…how great would it be to see them go out on top

Okay, senior festivities are over and team is on the field. Sentimentality can wait until the 4th quarter. Go Horns! #UT #40

Ready for kickoff here at DKR. Fans pumped for last home game of the year. #ut

Best WR screen coverage by Horns ever? Earl Thomas tackles KU WR behind LOS for the loss. #UT #40

Fantastic to see CB Aaron Williams back on the field for the Horns. #UT #40

Horns always start the game with a mediocre drive on defense before Muschamp adjusts. KU on the other side of the 50. #UT

Kansas coming out in the option and having some success moving the football. #ut

Kindle lays the wood to KU’s Opurum and knocks him out of the game…so much for that ABC key to the game. UT looking for a big stop here

It was nice to see Jordan Shipley honored at senior night for the 37th straight year. #ut #horns

Texas stops Kansas on fourth down at the UT 42 to take over on offense. Momentum now in Texas’ hands. #ut

Big 4th down for Kansas is denied as #UT gets tons of pressure on QB Reesing. Turnover in downs.

Love it when a surprise party works! Happy #40 to my great friend Ryan….

Well, so much for that.

Chykie Brown with huge sack on 3rd and long. Sergio Kindle holds OT and Chykie came untouched. #UT football.

Sergio kindle just hugged chykie brown in case chykie wantes to celebrate his sack. #ut

Clark ford got a piece of punt. He’s a former walkon celebrating his senior day. Memorable play for him. #ut

KU may have had their best drive of the game…much like what we saw last week against Baylor. Expect a UT score on this drive, with Johnson

Marquise Goodwin on the loose! Takes the WR screen 34 yards on opening play of series. Nice block by Shipley and the OL on the play. #UT

Is Cody Johnson the #ut version of Jorvorskie Lane? #horns

41-yard TD from McCoy to Kirkendoll, 7-0 Horns. #ut

Touchdown James Kirkendoll! #UT offensive line gives Colt plenty of time for stop and go and hits Kirk in stride for the 41 yd score!

Is that Kirkendoll’s best play of the year. It was a nice route. I say yes. #ut #horns

Easy as pie — Shipley draws double coverage in the slot and fres up Kirkendoll down the sideline for 41-yrd TD pass. 7-0 UT

UT defense holds on great play by Thomas to cut down Meier before he gets to the marker. Look for another UT score here.

If you’re going to name your child after a Texas city, don’t make it Lubbock. Even Amarillo would be better. #UT #40 #KU

Texas taking shots at Kansas defense. ABC announcers talking about #UT going deep, I think we’ve done it more already than most games.

RT @40acressports: If you’re going to name your child after a Texas city, don’t make it Lubbock. Even Amarillo would be better. #UT #40 #KU

You know what would be nice? Blocking.

Not a good play by Colt on the fumble. Knew the pressure was there, has to get rid of the ball earlier. Just throw it away. #UT #40

Nice to see #ut going deep and stretching the field. As for the running game … well, it’s not Baylor out there. #horns

McCoy not as fast as he thought as he get’s caught from behind and fumbles. UT defense wheting its appetite.

I am convinced M. Houston will be a long-time pro…he has a great motor and shows explosiveness and speed for a 300-lb’ er. Just got a sack

Kansas gets a field goal off the Colt fumble. 7-3 #ut

Kansas’ big 3rd down pass to Briscoe sets up 27 yrd FG to cut the UT lead to 7-3. Will UT try to establish run game now?

Senior day forgettables. Mccoy, shipley both have fumbled #ut

RT @JimBobBreazeale: I think even Mangino’s sperm is obese. – lol, I should stop. #ut #40

Texas offense has good yardage but is still looking for some consistency tonight. No run game at all. #UT #40

McCoy!! Shipley!!! Touchdown Horns!! #UT

Shipley breaks free for a touchdown on the roll out from McCoy. 14-3 #ut

Shipley just tied school record for most touchdowns for a receiver. #ut

RT @suzhalliburton: Shipley just tied school record for most touchdowns for a receiver. #ut

McCoy to Shipley for TD on great crossing pattern. Block downfield by M. Williams springs #8 for the score. 14-3 and the rout is on.

Biggest crowd in UT history tonight as 101,357 enjoy the final home game of 2009.

Anyone notice that one week after determining Cody Johnson was the answer at RB, that Tre Newton is playing a ton tonight for #UT

Doisregard tweet about shipley. Bad info

RT @stevehabel: Biggest crowd in UT history tonight as 101,357 enjoy the final home game of 2009.

Way too many missed tackles by #UT tonight. Muschamp is going to crush someone if it doesn’t improve.

Kansas moves down the field but is once again held to a field goal. 14-6 #ut

Official attendance is 101.357. Biggest crowd in school history #ut

Can’t beat Texas with FGs, but KU draws closer with 26-yrd kick. Muschamp is getting a little upset over there cause of missed tackles

Failed onside attempt by Jayhawks gives UT the ball in KU territory. #ut

Now PLEASE put #40 in!!!!

Nice to see Marquise Goodwin back for the kickoff return instead of Shipley. Doesn’t get chance for return as KU muffs onside kick. #UT

Horns get a field goal of their own. #UT up 17-6

Lawrence hits 49-yarder on his senior day. Texas is up 17_6. #ut

KU’s ill-advised onside kick leas to a personal-best 49-yrd FG by Lawrence and a 17-6 UT lead. Let’s see what Muschamp had to say to the D.

Lawrence’s 49 yarder was a career long field goal. #ut

Blake Gideon is playing with some attitude tonight. Huge hit on crossing route and then he even enjoyed it for a minute. #UT #40

Come on Texas….. Florida beat FIU 62 – 3 and Bama beat Chatt 45 -0…granted those were glorified scrimmages… but come on guys. #ut #40

Seems like the UT D learned a lot as KU gets nothing on next series in the face of UT rush and good secondary coverage

Almost all the snaps are going to Tre Newton tonight. Barrett Matthews in at tight end for Texas too. #UT #40

Ship’s got some serious “guns”….. damn….. can we say biceps?
#40 #ut

Touchdown Texas! Horns take control on Cody Johnson one-yard plunge. 24-6

Cody Johnson back in his usual role as short yardage back? Touchdown Texas on beautiful drive. #UT takes 24-6 lead.

Johnson scores from 1-yard out. That’s his 12th touchdown of year. #ut 24-6.

Texas shows some more versatility with 59-yard drive. UT now has all of 19 yards rushing in the first half, the final 1 by Johnson on a TD

ABC announcers think #UT fans should think its awesome that refs got call correct AGAINST the Horns? Really?

Love it. Going for the kill. Texas calling timeouts with 1 minute left and KU in 2nd and long. #UT

Really hate that clock runs after defensive penalty. Why is offense punished for defensive mistake? #UT #40

Hunter Lawrence sends in another field goal to put Texas up 27-6. #ut

Penalty actually helps KU as Texas has to burn a TO rather than spike the ball and have more time on the clock. UT adds 47 FG, 27-6 lead

Lawrence adds a 47_yarder with 7 seconds remaining for a 27-6 lead. Hunter has had his 2 longest FG of his career in this quarter. #ut

Texas has almost double the yardage of KU at the half, 268-136, even though KU ran 8 more plays than Texas. Most of it on passing.

McCoy is 18-of-22 in the first half, Reesing is 15-26. McCoy has the only turnover on a fumble.

????????????????????#40?????????????…

Et le but des Red Wings…compte par le #40… Henrik Zetterberg! Go Wings Go! #fb

I ask you, can Tim Tebow punt? (big wink) Colt McCoy is displaying all his skills tonight. #ut

Shipley needs another 15 yards to break school, single-season record for yardage. He’s now second behind Roy Williams. #ut

Texas defense struggling for the first time in a long time tonight. Missed tackles, no pressure from front 4. #UT

Sharp scores a 2-yard touchdown. That’s the fourth rushing TD allowed by #ut defense this season, but second game in row.

This score is good for McCoy. Keep him in. Keep him throwing. #ut #hookem

@kbohls Kansas not rolling over for #ut. Is this a vote for Mangino? #40

So much for that Kansas momentum. Colt McCoy play action, deep post to Malcolm Williams for a 68 yard touchdown. All very nonchalant. #UT

We’ve still got a football game on our hands here, folks….oh, wait, Malcolm Williams just scored. Never mind. #ut

That was a quick answer to the KU score. McCoy hits Williams for a 68-yard touchdown. Texas is up 34-13. McCoy now has 318 for game. #ut

It’s just that easy…UT can do what ever it wants whenever it wants…they are just that good — 68 yrds to M. Williams makes it 34-13

Just slight threat of Tre Newton and a running game froze the safety and opened up that 68 yard touchdown pass. #UT #40

Great pass and run by KU goes for naught as Ut defense bows its neck and forces 50-yrd FG attempt that’s wide left.

McCoy is giving Longhorn fans a show for his last game at Memorial Stadium. I haven’t seen him run this tough in awhile. #ut

Gritches? #UT

ABC announcers talking like #UT stunk it up 3rd quarter. The Horns had about 130 yards on 3 series in quarter, and drive is still going.

Texas stalls after moving to the KU 18…three no-gain plays lead to Lawrence’s third FG of the game and a 37-13 Texas advantage.

If Ut wins — and it seems that they will — it will play Nebraska in the Big 12 championship game in Arlington Dec. 5. Get your tix now

Texas A&M defense licking their chops? The same defense that gave up 60+ to KState and 65 last week to a bruised OU offense? #UT

Earl Thomas, with his 7th interception, tied the school, single-season record for picks. #ut

Earl Thomas with the interception and Keenan Robinson levels 1 or 2 guys on the return. #UT CB Aaron Williams down injured. No bueno.

Aaron Williams is down. Colt McCoy is out on the field, kneeling beside him. #ut

Williams putting zero weight on right leg as he is helped off the field. S***. #UT

Earl Thomas gets a pick, but Aaron Williams shaken up on the play…now helped off by trainers, favoring right ankle. #ut

For the most part, I’ve really liked the offensive play calling by Greg Davis tonight. Even more impressive with OLine struggles. #UT

??????????? ????????????#40 http://bit.ly/3G9V4q ?

McCoy hits Kirkendoll for another TD #ut

#UT beating KU by 30 but ABC doesn’t notice. Busy talking about how poorly they’re playing tonight & what will happen in #BCS if they lose.

Texas fans — think it’s safe to buy tickets to the Big 12 championship game. Longhorns go up 44-13 with 11:43 to play. #ut

McCoy to Kirkendoll adds to TX lead a handful of plays after Thomas INT. A. Williams hurt right knee blocking for Thomas’s INT return…

It doesn;t look good…might be the injury that comes back to hurt the Horns as Williams is UT’s second best Defensive back.

Really awful effort on kickoff tackle attempt by Earl Thomas. Touchdown by Kansas. #UT

Briscoe brutalized the #ut kickoff team for a 98-yard return. It’s 44-20. This is the second-most points Longhorns have allowed in 09.

Briscoe returns kickoff 98 yards to give KU a little something to brag about. That’s a part of the UT game that always need help.

FYI — Shipley is six yards away from school record for most receiving yards in season. Betting both McCoy and Shipley will be back in.

terrific catch by Shipley for the record. #ut

This #BCS talk is making me nauseous. I don’t know how ESPNs Brad Edwards sleeps at night profiting on such an unholy career. #UT

Texas only up 24 with full quarter to go, so now ABC gritching that Garrett Gilbert should be in there. Really odd slant by ABC tonight. #UT

RT @DavidHoustonVO: Shipley sets single-season receiving record, anncrs too busy with BCS babble to notice. #ut

Wow. Fantastic job by Tre Newton to tip toe in bounds for the score. #UT now up 51-20.

I’m guessing Colt and Jordan get one more play. Simple WR screen and then the 2 come off field together to ovation. #UT

Newton tiptoes down the sideline for a 19-yard Td that should effectively end McCoy’s career at DKR. McCoy threw for 396 yards tonight.

Shipley now has the best receiving season in UT histiry and all that stands between UT and Pasadena is the Ags and Nebraska. Next stop: ARL

Glad Earl Thomas didn’t take that to the house. Want one more play for McCoy and Shipley. #UT

Thank you for a great 4 years in Austin Colt! #ut #40

Texas puts in starters and then calls timeou to give McCoy his curtain call. #ut

Texas sends seniors out with the offense, calls timeout and brings them off the field together. Chills. #UT

“there went the winningest qb in fbs history” #colt #ut #hookem #40

Walkon senior QB Walker gets a snap. ABC announcers think it’s @sherrodharris

@suzhalliburton What happened to McGhee? Seems like he’s the forgotten man in the backfield. #ut #40

On sidelines. John chiles is in street clothes, wearing a boot on his right ankle. #ut

Texas is in big 12 title game. It’s official now. #ut

Mark Mangino tells Mack Brown to “win it all” #UT

RT @suzhalliburton: On sidelines. John chiles is in street clothes, wearing a boot on his right ankle. #ut

Congrats and thank you to the 2009 senior Texas Longhorns. Been a great run. 3 more to go for a title. #UT

Final Texas 51 Kansas 20. Bring on those POOOOOOOOR Aggies! #ut #40

Seniors are doing victory lap.

Nothing new… RT @texansports: if you’re wondering, it’s all burnt orange at floyd casey so far. this is embarrassing. #UT #Baylor

14 minutes to kickoff in Waco and the stadium is mostly TX fans. Maybe the Baylor fans are like those in LA, late to come and early to leave

Fox Sports was showing Baylor QB Robert Griffin playing catch on the field before the game…this would be a lot different if he could play

We’re covering the #UT vs Baylor game live on the site: http://bit.ly/2YBhXL Participate there or add #40 to tweets to have them added.

With the students, crowd could be 50-50. #ut

I’m amazed that, after boozing, no Baylor students throw up sprinting 100 yards across the field prior to the football game. #ut #horns

Curt fact #40:
He hates pancakes and prefers waffles.

Captains for game – mccoy, shipley. Kindle, houston #ut

We’re at Floyd Casey Stadium, also known as DKR North. #ut #horns

RT @bevobeat: Clever Baylor T shirts: “Keep the weird in Austin.” (OK. Keep the boring in Waco) #ut

Longhorns Sport Network saying wind will definitely be an issue today. #ut #hookem #40

RT @bevobeat: Crowd is more than half orange. http://yfrog.com/3dvmngj

So far, 2 plays into the game, FSN coverage ha already missed one of them. #UT #40

Penalize the refs for calling that weak late hit on Colt. Last I checked, he’s a football player. #ut #horns

Make it 2 of 4. Man I really love the Big 12 deal with FSN. Yay. #UT #40

Like seeing a few successful runs by Cody Johnson and then nice play action rollout by Colt McCoy early for a short scamper. #UT #40

Wow! Great catch by Buckner! #ut #40

SHIPLEY! TOUCHDOWN TEXAS! #ut #40

Wow. Colt almost picked on 2nd and goal. Did that ever touch the ground?? #TD Malcolm Williams?

Colt’s 1st TD pass. He will b the media focus next 2 weeks by setting wins record. Bottom line: time to win or lose Heisman. #ut #horns

Like the feel of that first drive for UT, mixing passes and runs – some with McCoy under center. Johnson looks like the runner UT has needed

Touchdown Colt McCoy to Jordan Shipley. Nice pass protection by offensive line gives Colt plenty of time. #UT 7, Baylor 0

@40acressports Yeah the FSN coverage leaves a lot to be desired. I never saw the ball hit the ground either. #ut #40

RT @gkketch: That was damn near a perfect drive for the #Longhorns to open the game. Greg Davis must be smiling.

That was quick. Mccoy finds shipley, his roommate (news flash) for td to finish 10-play, 80 yd drive. 7-0 #ut

McCoy to Shipley, touchdown! Horns 7-0 Hook’em!!!
- #UT #Texas #40 #Horns #hook’em

Texas drives down the field and scores TD on opening possession on pass from McCoy to Shipley. Johnson running well, game will be over soon.

Rewatched near interception several times. It looks like ball never hits turf, goes from off Baylor LB hands & into Mal Williams’. #UT #40

RT @JimVertuno: Pregame coin toss at Texas-Baylor by Senior Sgt. Mark Todd, police officer who took down the Ft. Hood shooter. #AP_Top25.

TX goes up 7-0 on a McCoy pass to Shipley at the end of a 10-play drive. Johnson touched the ball on 5 plays in the drive — 4 runs, 1 catch

Muckelroy is not in the game for #ut. The senior linebacker was listed on the injury report this week.

Baylor running a 8 yd cushion zone D on 3rd & goal from 3. Defenders were 5 yards deep in end zone. #UT #40

Wow. Baylor runs a basketball-like style offense. Fast-break. Texas D better be awake. #ut #40

Small tidbit… Florence’s friend from HS died a few days ago. I feel bad he has to play today. #ut #40 #hookem

Why does it seem like every team runs the wide receiver screen better than #ut? #horns

Baylor coaches know what consistently works against #UT defense: wide receiver screens. Play has killed #UT for last 2 years at least. #40

Also, why does it seem like Will Muschamp forms his game plan after the opponent’s first drive of the game. #ut #horns

Spoke too quickly. Baylor putting together a solid opening drive. #ut

BU is super impressive on its first drive as well, mixing up plays and taking advantage of some UT alignment errors. Expect that to be fixed

#FSN awful game coverage actually affects games with complete lack of camera angles for instant replay officials. #UT #40

Can’t pick on Aaron Williams…he jumps out of the his shoes to grab INT and end BU drive

Aaron williams reads the fade perfectly, makes pick in end zone. #ut

Texas D gets an INT in the endzone killing a Baylor drive! #ut #40

Baylor gets 0. Aaron Williams, back from injury, picks off the ball in the end zone. #ut

This just in: Aaron Williams is not bad. #ut #horns

Ugh, I hate games on FSN. #ut #40 #hookem

What a play!!! Back to back blanked coverage by Aaron Williams, this one is TD saving fantastic interception on a corner route. #UT #40

Every week Mack talks about looking into the punting game. Every week it’s the same thing. Rugby punts have jumped the shark. #ut #horns

McCoy could have run for the 1st down but passes to Smith, who drops the ball. Good punt by Tucker into the wind — let’s see if Muschamp…

has made any adjustments. Baylor better get its points early because no one does a better job with changes than Muschamp.

Let’s see what Will Muschamp and his defense do on this 2nd series. Any adjustments to stop Baylor screen game? #UT #40

Please don’t try that against the number one defense. #ut #40 #hookem

Baylor held on 4th down. Muschamp’s D came to play today. #ut

Important 4th and 1 play by Baylor offense. #FSN doesn’t notice. #UT defense stuffs 2 straight plays.

Great team tackling by #ut on the qb sneak. Is it possible to have great team tackling on a qb sneak?

Haha. Jordan Shipley is my hero. #UT

#40, Research Article: ‘Teaching Reading to Autistic Students’ by … http://bit.ly/1IMUMi

BEAUTIFUL. #ut #40 #hookem

Another great catch by Shipley. #ut #40 #shipley4heisman

Baylor was not ready for the #ut hurry-up offense there. #horns

TOUCHDOWN TEXAS! Cody Johnson! 14-0 Horns! #ut #40

Cody Johnson plows ahead for the touchdown. It’s 14-0 Texas. #ut

I would have gone for the 1st down too if I was Briles, but Ut make a great defensive play — the d was waiting for that sneak.

Cody Johnson takes ball on first and goal right up the middle. Plowed through a tackler for 6. #FSN missed start of play again. #UT #40

Johnson look like the second coming of Earl Campbell as he powers to 6-yrd TD run and a 14-0 UT lead. This could get out of hand quickly.

Nicely done. Cody is such an appropriate name for a Texas player. RT @jfoster640: TOUCHDOWN TEXAS! Cody Johnson! 14-0 Horns! #ut #40

Great open field tackle by Justin Tucker. Might have saved a touchdown there.

Chykie Brown has to be careful after huge sack not to get flagged. Couldn’t have argued if they’d called unsportsmanlike there. #UT #40

Still not sure why Baylor isn’t running the WR screen until the #UT defense shows they can stop it for less than 8 yards.

WOW. What a sack by Brown. I think they’re still pulling the Baylor QB out of the turf! #ut #40

First running back off bench for #UT is Tre Newton and not Fozzy Whittaker.

Chykie brown is born to celebrate. Great blindside sack of florence. He got close to a flag. #ut

And we have a tre newton sighting. He gains 8 yards to close first quarter. #ut

<3 watching kicker during kick return. Can almost see him thinking-crap, I'm going 2 hv 2 tackle him. Glad ours knows how. #UT #40

Texas makes statement with great 1st qtr. Could be ahead by 35 by the end of the half now that they have the wind.

Chykie Brown got an earful from Duane Akina for his celebration after the sack. #ut #horns

Colt McCoy is 6/9 passing for 69 yards so far. #ut

Welcome back Tre! RT @suzhalliburton And we have a tre newton sighting. He gains 8 yards to close first quarter. #ut #hookem #40

Love seeing the #UT running backs involved in passing game. Cody Johnson with a couple catches today gives Colt another outlet. #40

Either Colt didn’t use his blocker there or he didn’t trust Kirkendoll to keep blocking. #ut #horns

Colt had huge gain on zone read but bad read of WR Kirkendoll’s block and he gets hit hard after 5 yard gain. #UT #40

That’s two “wow’ catches from Buckner. Guess he’s feeling better. #ut #Horns

Good to see Colt spreading the ball around. Not exclusively going to Shipley today. #ut #40

Wow. Barely 2nd quarter and Dan Buckner already has 2 highlight reel catches. Huge one there to extend drive on 3rd down. #UT #40

Dan buckner looks healthy. Stating the obvious. #ut

First DJ Monrow sighting. Looked like interesting zone read double option play set up there where Colt could’ve kept & pitched to DJ. #UT

Yea, we are getting such a deal for great coverage? RT @40acressports Make it 2 of 4. Man I really love the Big 12 deal with FSN. Yay. #40

Penalties by offensive line are such drive killers. If Hix doesnt get false start there, I think #UT goes for it on 4th down and converts.
