HoustonBYUCoug Walk-on

I live in Texas and know a ton of Texas alumni and fans. A surprising number...

Still haven't forgotten about BYU and Taysom Hill. He left a mark.

I was talking to one just a few days ago who was talking smack on Wilson. At one point in his argument, he said, "Is he even as good in college as Taysom Hill?" I consoled him a little bit by telling him that the UT game he remembers where Hill ran for 300 was probably the best game of his college career.

A texas fan on reddit posted about how BYU feels like a rival after Taysom

I have a buddy that's a Texas alum that hates BYU for that reason also.

Then Tyler Hawes burned them in basketball.

Haws was so smooth. I miss the midrange he was so good at.

mulletino

1/22/21 10:19am

And that fake pass move he had under the basket

El Jefe

1/22/21 10:52am

Man Tyler was so smooth. And that dagger was much more off balance than I rememb

Also... the highlight announcer really didn’t deliver in Haws shot. Wish they

15 TX highlights to 3 for the winners, but it was LHN

I assumed they were gathering highlights thinking TX would win.

Typical ESPN, 98% of the highlights were Texas

And then in 2014 the Women’s Volleyball team knocked them out of the semifinals

Tyler Haws is probably the best mid-range shooter I've ever watched. So smooth.

reading through the other comments, its mostly P5 guys talking about conference

LeonMarek

1/22/21 10:11am

BYU's 'Not a real rival' rival in his sense would probably be Washington, right?

ZacSeljaas'Stache

1/22/21 10:12am

CCU has gotta be on there now. But I agree with Washington

LeonMarek

1/22/21 10:17am

Yes - Washington def, now CCU. And I think Liberty has potential

Doi_Percent

1/22/21 10:55am

I'd prefer to never again play CCU or Liberty

1/22/21 10:15am

It was a turning point for the Texas program. Seeing that proud Texas defense

stenso

1/22/21 10:23am

And they still haven't figured it out

CelticCoug

1/22/21 10:37am

Honestly, it was good for Texas - more an awakening to reality than a turnpoint

krindorr

1/22/21 1:17pm

So invite BYU to join the conference so the rivalry can continue.

kmcougar

1/22/21 11:34am

That's one of the joys of independence. You can have better quality schools

Tarbo

1/22/21 10:16am

Byu is largely responsible for them getting rid of two quality coaches

cougarfann888

1/22/21 10:19am

Two?

WDaddy

1/22/21 10:24am

Directly manny Diaz indirectly Mack brown

cougarfann888

1/22/21 10:29am

Got it. I was just thinking HC.

WDaddy

1/22/21 10:34am

I wouldn't really consider Charlie Strong a quality coach, but he was pretty

Cougz19

1/22/21 11:08am

Maybe a former BYU QB can make it all good?

SinkingQuffa

1/22/21 10:25am

This is certainly a narrative

jxncoog

1/22/21 10:28am

BYU was the straw that broke the camels back. Mack had some bad recruiting

WDaddy

1/22/21 10:47am

No, the Texas Defense was responsible for not stopping Taysom and the BYU

coastcat

1/22/21 11:48am

Wonder how many OOC teams have a winning record against Texas (min 3 games)?

SV Coug

1/22/21 10:22am

These are the teams Texas has a losing record to with multiple games played

ZacSeljaas'Stache

1/22/21 10:24am

Vanderbilt is a real head scratcher. Must've had a great kicker 🙂

CelticCoug

1/22/21 10:31am

Vanderbilt is surprising

SV Coug

1/22/21 10:32am

So I'm guessing last game against Vandy was in the 1930s?

Y05

1/22/21 11:02am

And that one win against BYU was by a point, as I recall

1/22/21 11:55am

That game was there for the taking too! 🙁

fulano

1/22/21 12:29pm

That one win in 2011 was tough. I thought BYU played much better and should

Punk Philosopher

1/22/21 2:06pm

To make a Texas Fan feel better, remind them they've won one against BYU. Oklahoma can't say that, they're O fer (0-2)!

That is definitely a CB'er posing as a Texas fan

Marc Spector

There's been a good rivalry in Women's Volleyball for a while as well.

fbguru

1/22/21 11:59am

And now they're hoping a former BYU QB can coach them back to national relevance
