Texas got Bad calls but...
Was it 2001 BYU blatant, holding on EVERY jail break screen? Was it Peach Bowl vs. North Carolina blatant, 2 TDs called back for phantom holding? Was it 2011 Auburn blatant? Was it Dickie Pace blatant?
Yeah it was probably that bad, but as per my examples above---it happens and happens to the "little guys" like MSU far more often than the "Big Guys" like UT. It sort of seems that a team can sink to the ranks of the "little guys" and become more likely to get the shaft from the refs. And this is what has happened to Texas.
As for it being race related like the writer claims (because making that claim ALWAYS gets people on your side, no one ever wants to side with potential racists) maybe it is, but it is more likely Texas' s greed that could be the culprit. Their LongHorn Network and refusal to share profits and threats to join the PAC 12 pretty much led to the downfall of the Big 12---Texas A&M split and Missouri followed and Nebraska and Colorado left as well.
It is like the "Who shot JR" episode of Dallas, Texas has made so many enemies in their conference and in their region that the list of folks that now wish Texas ill will is gigantic. And now they are playing second fiddle in their own state, behind A&M, TCU, and Baylor. And i hope they languish in this mediocre period for a while longer.
