A loss is a loss. There’s no getting around that. But that doesn’t begin to sum up what happened on Saturday when the Bears played host to the Longhorns. Though the Longhorns were ultimately victorious, that second half was some of the most fun I’ve had watching football in quite a long time. Mark and I are back on the podcast to talk about that, the Playoff a bit, and more. Here’s what we’re talking about:

• A measure of perspective on this season (we’ll do a full recap at some point)
• Baylor lands in the Russell Athletic Bowl
• The RAB Twitter account makes us excited about the bowl
• The Texas Game
• The halftime adjustments, and credit where it is due
• Peter’s random halftime lunch experience
• The defensive performance
• We’d like more, please
• The Big 12 OOC scheduling requirement
• The Playoffs and New Years Six bowls (as well as the Alamo Bowl)
• Rico Gathers (no, really)
