I am going to be honest with y’all, I was holding my breath up until about the eight-minute mark in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s 31-12 win over the then-No. 10 Michigan Wolverines by the then-No. 3 Texas Longhorns in Ann Arbor.
We’ve experienced enough blown leads, some even under Sark, to where I was having trouble enjoying what we were witnessing until the final whistle blew and seeing the stadium gradually turn from maize to our lovely burnt orange. What a statement win for the Horns, and now it seems as though they are being respected as a top-tier team along with Georgia and Ohio State.
