Shipley did have a great game. I'm glad you pointed it out. He delivered !!!!

The best thing in Ash's development is he's crossing the line from being a quarterback where taking care of the football supersedes absolutely everything, to having the confidence to make a big play when it's on his shoulder. The Longhorns' sophomore signal caller is maturing and coming of age before our very eyes.
=========================

We don't win last night (or I suspect several games this year) without the stellar play from Ash that we are getting this season.

Can we have a

1a
2a
3a or a
4a to fit Shipley in there somewhere? 3 TD's

We aren't getting any back-side pursuit from our tackles and linebackers . Most of their running yardage came off tackle on Jeffcoat's side. Their end was kicking him outside and completely taking him out of the play; and our middle linebackers were nowhere to be seen.

Diaz said, “What we learned tonight is that if you don't give up big plays, you can win the game in the red zone,” Diaz said. “That's what we were able to do, especially through the middle part of the game, to give us a chance to win the football game.”

Except they did give up big plays. As a matter of fact I counted them giving up 9 plays that were 15 yards or greater. Four touchdowns given up in drives that were less then two minutes implies giving up big plays.

I think Mack needs to tell Manny that he had better get his Defense fixed soon. He has been known to clean house!
