Indeed. The Texas alums are a tough crowd to please, to say the least. I know I wouldn't want to work for them. Hell, I'm one of them and don't want to be associated with most. To be fair, with the amount of money that goes into the program, the bar should be set pretty high....

I've observed that the Husky fan base has pretty lofty expectations, too. I think they may be closer to satisfied this year. I think Peterson's a good one, and the talent level's pretty solid these days.

I think I'll have fun pulling for one or the other this season.
