Atmosphere reminds me of the Neb- #mizzou game in 1997 when the Tigers almost upset No.1 Huskers. Kicked ball prevented that. #ut #horns

Texas and Mizzou take the field, three minutes to kick.

Live blogging the #UT v Mizzou game on the site at http://bit.ly/ZS3w6 Head over there or add #40 to your tweets to participate.

Ulatoski, Alexander, Hall and Lawrence are game captains. That’s en eclectic group. #ut

It’s very loud here. I sound like an old person, but if the music is so loud it’s rattling things in the press box, it’s a bit extreme

Wow. This David Spade & Chris Farley DirecTV commercial remake of Tommy Boy is tasteless. #UT #40

Maybe it’s because I’m not a big fan of Welcome to the Jungle.

Quite tasteless. @40acressports Wow. This David Spade & Chris Farley DirecTV commercial remake of Tommy Boy is tasteless. #UT #40

Much better atmosphere here at Faurot Field than when I was here. And yes, #ut fans, I went to #mizzou

First play of the game is a huge play to Jordan Shipley for a 31-yard game. #UT at Mizzou 30.

Well how about that? Shipley back to flanker, McCoy hits him and Jordan runs through several missed tackles for big gain. #UT #40

#mizzou knows there’s no good option when it comes to kickoffs. Monroe and Shipley each can take it to the house. #ut #horns

Wait… Colt and Shipley are roommates?!?! #ut #40

Not a good start for Williams. He got away with it but put the ball on the turf. #ut #horns

Fozzy Whittaker and Cody Johnson giving Texas a real running game. First a goal Horns. #ut

Shipley much better blocker than Chiles or Kirkendoll. Gives Malcolm Williams some run on WR screen. Fumbled out of bounds. No harm. #UT #40

Hix missed a tackle on McCoy run or Colt might’ve scored. Whiffed on defender after fake to Fozzy and DJ Monroe. #UT #40

That’s too easy for McCoy and Shipley. Like I said before the game, this is not a good matchup for #mizzou. #ut #horns

McCoy rolls right, hits Shipley for 8-yard TD. Touchdown Texas. 7-0 Horns. So much for a slow start.

Touchdown Horns! #ut #40

Touchdown Texas!!! What a great opening drive. Everything worked. McCoy to Shipley for an easy TD reception to give #UT 7-0 lead.

#ut took all of 3:36 for a touchdown. Longhorns stayed in 3 wides, 1 tight, 1 back all way down field. Get used to it.

I shall be keeping track of how many times Brent or Kirk mention that Colt and Shipley are roommates. Currently at 2. #ut #40

If you noticed, Shipley was in his old flanker spot. He caught two passes for 31 and then the 8-yard touchdown. Think he’s comfortable? #ut

@suzhalliburton I can def get used to that efficiency. Everything worked. Shipley back to slot might have been biggest move. #UT #40

Shipley in the slot > Shipley out wide. … Trubow in Columbia < Trubow in Austin. #ut #Horns

Very nice block by Marquise Goodwin on that TD play. Walled his guy off and made it easy for Shipley. #UT #40

Is Chykie Brown out? I see Deon Beasley in at the right CB. #UT #40

Sergio looked just as fast as Washington on that play. #ut defense just flying around right now. #horns

What a great call by Will Muschamp. Deon Beasley and another rusher come untouched. Great def call. 3 and out! #UT #40

Beasley gets the sack. He’s from Orange. Same as me. More publicity for the hometown. #ut

Deon Beasley sack on the corner blitz puts Mizzou back in 4th and 26. Texas D doing what it’s done this year. #ut

Nice play for #mizzou on special teams. #ut putting two return guys in 2 avoid a bouncing punt. Gabbert looks hurt. Horn corners are hunters

Beasley started in place of Chykie Brown with #ut opening in nickel.

I wish Mizzou’s QB had a mustache so Sergio Kindle could take that mustache ride! #ut #40

Shipley didn’t get the spot there. McCoy got blown up on that play. #ut #Horns will have to punt.

Antwan Cobb gets the direct snap and successfully converts the fake punt. Horns keep rolling on offense. #ut

Love/hate the fake punt play. Love it right now. #ut #40

A Cobb sighting. The Pflugerville product has had trouble staying healthy. #ut keeps the ball with a fake. #horns

Williams has a huge burst of speed. He almost fumbled again though. #ut #horns

Colt had a touchdown to smith on that play but elected to run. Probably a good choice. #ut #horns.

Fozzy Whittaker scores from 11 yards out. 14-0 #UT. Texas: 123 yards. MU: Negative 11.

Touchdown Horns! Lookin’ good, boys. Going for style! #ut #40

Another three-and-out for Mizzou. Texas D not giving up anything (and, in fact, taking. MU still has negative yardage).

Correction: Mizzou now has a single yard. Woo.

RT @InsideTexas: Another three-and-out for Mizzou. Texas D not giving up anything (and, in fact, taking. MU still has negative yardage).

Texas looking like everyone expected them to look like heading into the season. Where have these Horns been? #ut

Also tired of hearing about how Colt has been sick. So glad he’s better, though! #ut #40

Smart play by Mizzou DB. If he doesn’t interfere, that’s a touchdown for Shipley. #ut

Texas should take more deep shots, if for no other reason than half the time the defender will be called for some penalty. PI Mizzou. #UT

Kirk Herbstreit just said “big play ability” & “Longhorns” in same sentence without any irony. That’s how good #UT offense looks 2nite.

And Chiles just ran a downfield route???? WTF IS GOING ON HERE? Respect for actual run game is huge too!! Touchown Horns! #UT #40

Three wide open receivers on that play, McCoy picks Chiles, 34-yard TD, 21-0 Texas.

Love Chiles at any position other than QB. Touchdown! #ut #40

It’s a Mizzou deja vu. Didn’t think the Tigers would let the Longhorns roll them again. #ut

I hate that Mizzou chose this game for their homecoming…and that it had to be after the OU game. Brutal combo for the Tigers. #ut #40

Chiles did look a little like a QB playing WR there. Hope he continues to work, think he’s good enough to be good player at WR next yr. #UT

First Q about to wrap. Stats — McCoy 9-9, 106, 2 TD; Shipley 4-47, 1 TD; Whittaker 5-26, 1 TD; Johnson 5-22. #ut

Lamarr Houston was lined up at defensive end, his old position. #ut

Sam Acho needed .5 more seconds and he would have killed the Mizzou QB. Punt Team out again for Tigers. #UT football.

Must. See. Pick six. Against. Tebow. #ut #40

It’s all about the SEC defense. That’s why Alabama needed a blocked kick to beat a 3-4 Tennessee team. Right? Of course. #ut #horns

What is going on in Lubbock? #ut #Horns

McCoy was a perfect 9 of 9 in first quarter with two scores. He likes Mizzou

McCoy has completed his first 11 passes. Well he missed one. But #mizzou was called for pass interference. #horns

RT @aTrubow: It’s all about the SEC defense. That’s why Alabama needed a blocked kick to beat a 3-4 Tennessee team. Right? Of course.

Tech beats K-State by 50, K-State beats A&M by 50…A&M beating Tech 35-14. This sport is so weird.

Colt McCoy finally throws first incomplete pass of the game, now 11-for-12

Malcolm Williams looking like a player tonight. I’m as impressed with his short crossing route reception as any long bomb. #UT #40

SO wish the Aggie/Tech game was on….with Benny Hill playing in the background. #ut #40

Once again, McCoy needs at least three more games like this before I consider putting him in the Heisman race. Just my opinion. #ut #Horns

That’s the first throw-away into the stands I’ve seen in awhile. #ut

I need to figure out a way to make watching College FB my job. #ut #40

Texas defense looks like they’ve gotten a little more passive after taking the big 21 point lead. Come on Will, go for the killshot. #UT

I would attack the #ut defense with screens. That seems to work best. #horns

#mizzou putting together an impressive drive. They’ve found a little gap in the screen/running game

Missouri putting together its first real drive of the game. Tigers now in the red zone.

If #ut keeps #mizzou out of the end zone here it’s a big plus for the horns.

CHykie Brown just got tripped up there. He had great position. #ut #mizzou.

Great catch by Mizzou’s Jared Perry…but it’s probably going to be over turned. He stepped out before catching the ball. #ut

Odd. Ruling confirmed. 21-7, Texas.

Wow. I thought that would have been overturned because the #mizzou receiver stepped out of bounds. Guess not. #ut #horns

Not sure Chykie forced him out or not. Tough call on replay there but think you have to uphold call on field. Touchdown Mizzou. #UT

Hmm. Don’t understand why that wasn’t overturned? Oh well. Let’s go offense! #ut #40

Well, #mizzou is going to make a game of this. Now the #ut offense needs to come back and score like they did in 2008. #horns

How does Jordan Shipley get that wide open? #UT #40

that was a well-blocked play by the offensive line. No #mizzou player could have tackled fozzy before the first down. #horns

Having at least SOME ability to run the ball makes me so much more sane on #UT game days.

Dang! Almost got another roommate comment out of Brent. He said “buddy.” I’m gonna have that one as well. Count to 3. #ut #40

RT @40acressports: How does Jordan Shipley get that wide open? #UT #40 ** SHHHHHHH… don’t tell Mizzou

Don’t sleep on Greg Smith. He will dominate you with his athleticism.

Malcolm Williams. #UT

There’s the reason why Malcolm Williams doesn’t play much. That’s why. He consistently drops passes. #ut #horns

Who is this team I’m watching? Even the RB screen play looked competent with running and blocking and all sorts of things. #UT #40

Screens, draws, counters, option. Texas mixing it up on offense this game. Results have been positive for the Horns. #ut

And Malcolm makes up for it with nice tightrope effort. Gets about 10 extra yards tip toeing in bounds down side line. #UT #40

Cannot believe what is going down in Lubbock. #ut #40

Wow that was easy. No safety over the top and Jordan Shipley gets easy step on Mizzou CB and Colt hits him perfectly for the TD. #UT #40

McCoy hits Shipley to close out an 87-yard TD drive. 28-7. Mizzou still leaving Shipley in singe coverage. Why? No one up here knows.

Touchdown by *gasp* Colt’s roomate, Shipley! #ut #40

Nice drive, capped off by McCoy’s pass to Shipley for score. That’s 3 for McCoy before half. Can get back into Heisman race on primetime #ut

Do teams not understand how good Shipley is? Cornerbacks can’t cover him 1-on-1. That’s why OU double-teamed him all the time. #ut #horns

Should point out a trend. Whenever @kbohls isn’t at #ut game, Longhorn offense is on fire. Coincidence? (Kirk, we miss you)

In case for some reason you can’t get the game on TV, found a stream on Justin.tv: http://www.justin.tv/insgadgettv #UT #40

The Fighting Tebows are tied with Mississippi State and Texas A&M is blowing out Tech. No comment. #ut #horns

Earl Thomas won’t get any stats on that 2nd down play, but he blew up the blocker and had huge part in the tackle for loss. #40 #ut

Brent, you’re killing me with the lack of roommate comments. Buck up, soldier! Kirk, I also need some “soft hands” comments from you.#ut #40

Curtis Brown blocks the Mizzou punt! Malcolm Williams recovers for the TD. 35-7, Texas

Touchdown Malcolm Williams!! Curtis Brown (and others) easily block the end zone and Mal recovers in the end zone for the score!! #40

Blocked punt, touchdown! My two favorite plays in one! #ut #40

Is #ut the most complete team in the country? I’m not sure, but it’s hard to argue for anybody else. #horns

That was just too easy. Curtis Brown blocks punt, Malcolm Williams scores. Texas 35-Missouri 7. #ut

At his Monday beat reporters meeting, Mack said he wished he’d gone for the block right before half against OU. Went for it this time. #ut

Halftime: Texas 35, Missouri 7

That’s Texas’ seventh non-offensive touchdown of year. This rowdy Mizzou crowd — quiet as mice. #ut

I want to welcome the Texas Longhorns to the 2009 season. I know it’s late but the #UT defense held your place. Now let’s go win this thing.

@40acressports AND their brothers…about how they were roommates in college! And their dads were roommates! *head explodes* #ut #40

Just for perspective, the 05 national champs had seven non-offensive scores. #ut

SEC football… it’s FG-tastic!

Some halftime individual stats: McCoy 18-21, 213, 3 TD; Shipley 6-84, 2 TD; M. Williams 4-43; Whittaker 6-31, 1 TD; C. Johnson 6-23. #ut

I would love to be #1…but last time when we were #1 going into the Halloween game, things didn’t end up so well. #ut #40

So #ut has outscored #mizzou by a combined 70-10 in the first half over the past two years.

Second half about to start here in Missouri. Texas kicking off to the Tigers.

OH GOD! Some1 told Musberger abt Jaxon Shipley v Case McCoy last nite. Not sure Brent will be able to finish game, this is his nirvana.

I’ve lost count… Probably at 56? More or less. #ut #40

Texas gets out of a 3rd and 13 with a 24-yard pass to Shipley. Mizzou has been unable to stop Ship all game.

McCoy picked off by Missouri LB Sean Weatherspoon. Missouri takes over at Texas 38. #ut

Colt picked by best Missouri player LB Witherspoon. Doesn’t look like McCoy ever saw him. #UT #40

It wouldn’t be a UT game without a McCoy interception. #ut #40

Throwback FAIL. #ut #40

ABC having to ace statistician to add up 7 + 1 interceptions for McCoy. #UT #40

Gabbert shaken up on Eddie Jones sack, helped off the field. Gives Mizzou a fourth and 37. #ut

Missouri offense turns the big interception into -24 yard series after failed trick play and big sack. 4th down. #UT #40

RT @Andy_Staples: Note to Mizzou: Your players are slower than Texas players. Don’t get fancy.

Florida/Missy State game just got ugly. Turning away. #ut #40

Wow Colt getting a little loose with the football. Ball shouldve been picked but Mal Williams catches the ricochet for the first down. #UT

Ooooh. Technically Colt had NOT stepped out of bounds on that play yet. Colt got NAILED. #UT #40

Brent couldn’t have said it better… Next week is scary. (and not just because it’s Halloween). OSU at night is scary. #ut #40

Mack Brown ran like crazy to go check on Colt when McCoy got knocked down. I think Mack saw his season flash before his eyes. #ut

Texas offense looking more like it has in past weeks here in second half. Hopefully they pick up their rhythm again next series. #UT

39-yard FG by Hunter Lawrence is good. 38-7 #UT.

Colt McCoy was barely out of bounds. I’m going to catch crap, but I’m not sure that was a penalty and he shouldn’t have slowed up #ut #horns

SHouldn’t have said barely out of bounds. I meant to say I’m not sure if he was out of bounds. #ut #horns

@kkyno I don’t know what that means. #40?

Haha! RT @40acressports: ABC having to ace statistician to add up 7 + 1 interceptions for McCoy. #UT #40

Wow. Herbstreit just claimed Alabama win over awful Tennessee team 12-10 was better win than #UT dominant performance.

FINAL: Texas 41, Missouri 7

That’s the game. As rain drops start falling on my head (and bberry) #ut wins 41-7.

Don’t mind Herbstreit rankings, but his logic is incredibly flawed. Alabama offense VERY inconsistent & Tenn squeaker today is bad win. #UT
