I see that this article has been nominated for deletion using the {{prod}} process. I concur that this article is currently premature. The 2005 Texas Longhorn football team is a good article, and a 2006 article could conceivably be useful once the season starts. I'd endorse the prod without prejudice.

I don't think the Big 12 Championship Game should be put on there schedule yet they haven't won it yet Oklahoma still has a slim chance of winning the division.-- Kevmicester2000 18:41, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Today, the article was tagged as possibly being too long. There is just one more game left in the season (whatever bowl game Texas ends up in), so the article is nearing its maximum length. After the season is complete, we will be attempting to improve this article to Featured Article status. FA guidelines call for articles to be written in "summary style", so we will split off portions of this main article into sub-articles to comply with that guideline.

The bulk of the "Stadium renovations" section should probably be merged into Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium with just a summary and a "main article' pointer left here. - Bevo 21:41, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
The summary of the Texas A&M game is ridiculously subjective including references to "Helmet to helmet" hits that clearly were not such. Texas lost the football game, and to accuse the Texas A&M players of playing dirty is ridiculous. Both hits on McCoy are shown from angles that clearly demonstrate they are not cheap shots. Even Heard's hit can be shown as from an angle at which he has no view of dodge going down, and if you listen in to the game there is no whistle at the end of that play which would tell him to stop playing. Secondly, The Sweed pass interference call can be clearly shown in a GIF animation popular on a Texas A&M fansite, www.texags.com, that is often used as a user signature. The announcers renounced their initial reaction to the pass interference being a bad call after they saw the second angle which clearly shows Sweed pushing Gorrer's head away with near full arm extension as the ball is coming down to the two of them. In conclusion, 12-7 and better luck next year.
OK, I made some of the changes that I think we can agree to. Here is the current list:
Get some rest and then see what you think. Best, Johntex\ talk 14:56, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Regarding hit on McCoy by Heard: "Following the change of possesion" implies that the play was over and action stopped. Since there is still uncertainty as to whether the whistle had blown yet, it would seem to be more correct and clear to use the phrase "As the whistle blew, ending the play on the field".
As to the Bennett hit on McCoy: The phrase "helmet under McCoy's jaw" and "Helmet to Helmet" contradict one another. Pictures of the tackle indicate that initial contact was made between Bennett's helmet and McCoy's chest. Further, the link supposedly stating that replays on television or in the stadium showed helmet to helmet contact is broken and not verifiable.
Finally regarding the Bennett hit on McCoy: NCAA rules specifically state that spearing or helmet to helmet contact even if intentional (which did not appear to be the case anyway), is not a foul unless there is intent to punish the opposing player. Therefore the phrase ""helmet-to-helmet"[164] contact which, if intentional, is illegal in NCAA football" is incorrect and has been eliminated.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Macae ( talk • contribs) 13:00, 2007 March 29 (UTC)
Regarding the "Change of Possession" term: I agree that it can occur during a play but just to elimate any confusion have edited the statement to read "Following the change of possession and as the whistle blew ending the play on the field, Aggie..."
Regarding the helmet to helmet rule: There is indeed a quote in the reference mentioning intentional helmet-to-helmet contact being illegal if intentional. However, this statement is not in the rules but rather mentioned as a point of emphasis. The rules say specifically "Spearing is the use of the helmet (including the face mask) in an attempt to punish an opponent." Section 24, Article 1, page 53. Nowhere in the rules is any mention made of the need for intentional contact but it does require that the contact be made in an attempt to punish the opponent. Macae
I remember the sports commentators saying something about this game being a first (after a while) that the Longhorns had been unscored upon. Anyone remember this? This would be a good addition. -- Blueag9 ( Talk | contribs) 02:03, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I notice that Blueag9 changed one of the headings from "After the season" to "Post-season". I originally considered "Post-season" for the heading but went with the longer heading title for three reasons:
For these reasons, I went with the original title of "After the season". I look forward to everyone's thoughts on what we should call this heading. Johntex\ talk 08:50, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi
The article is over 500kb in size. 290kb of that is the references.
Can someone perhaps try and cut these down a bit ?? For example is there any need to have:-
In the main text there are many double and triple refs which are completely unecessary.
WP:MOS states at least one ref per para and, while not condoning cutting down to that level, it seems that many of the refs are really superfluous.

Today, the article was tagged as possibly being too long. There is just one more game left in the season (whatever bowl game Texas ends up in), so the article is nearing its maximum length. After the season is complete, we will be attempting to improve this article to Featured Article status. FA guidelines call for articles to be written in "summary style", so we will split off portions of this main article into sub-articles to comply with that guideline.

The bulk of the "Stadium renovations" section should probably be merged into Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium with just a summary and a "main article' pointer left here. - Bevo 21:41, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
The summary of the Texas A&M game is ridiculously subjective including references to "Helmet to helmet" hits that clearly were not such. Texas lost the football game, and to accuse the Texas A&M players of playing dirty is ridiculous. Both hits on McCoy are shown from angles that clearly demonstrate they are not cheap shots. Even Heard's hit can be shown as from an angle at which he has no view of dodge going down, and if you listen in to the game there is no whistle at the end of that play which would tell him to stop playing. Secondly, The Sweed pass interference call can be clearly shown in a GIF animation popular on a Texas A&M fansite, www.texags.com, that is often used as a user signature. The announcers renounced their initial reaction to the pass interference being a bad call after they saw the second angle which clearly shows Sweed pushing Gorrer's head away with near full arm extension as the ball is coming down to the two of them. In conclusion, 12-7 and better luck next year.
OK, I made some of the changes that I think we can agree to. Here is the current list:
Get some rest and then see what you think. Best, Johntex\ talk 14:56, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Regarding hit on McCoy by Heard: "Following the change of possesion" implies that the play was over and action stopped. Since there is still uncertainty as to whether the whistle had blown yet, it would seem to be more correct and clear to use the phrase "As the whistle blew, ending the play on the field".
As to the Bennett hit on McCoy: The phrase "helmet under McCoy's jaw" and "Helmet to Helmet" contradict one another. Pictures of the tackle indicate that initial contact was made between Bennett's helmet and McCoy's chest. Further, the link supposedly stating that replays on television or in the stadium showed helmet to helmet contact is broken and not verifiable.
Finally regarding the Bennett hit on McCoy: NCAA rules specifically state that spearing or helmet to helmet contact even if intentional (which did not appear to be the case anyway), is not a foul unless there is intent to punish the opposing player. Therefore the phrase ""helmet-to-helmet"[164] contact which, if intentional, is illegal in NCAA football" is incorrect and has been eliminated.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Macae ( talk • contribs) 13:00, 2007 March 29 (UTC)
Regarding the "Change of Possession" term: I agree that it can occur during a play but just to elimate any confusion have edited the statement to read "Following the change of possession and as the whistle blew ending the play on the field, Aggie..."
Regarding the helmet to helmet rule: There is indeed a quote in the reference mentioning intentional helmet-to-helmet contact being illegal if intentional. However, this statement is not in the rules but rather mentioned as a point of emphasis. The rules say specifically "Spearing is the use of the helmet (including the face mask) in an attempt to punish an opponent." Section 24, Article 1, page 53. Nowhere in the rules is any mention made of the need for intentional contact but it does require that the contact be made in an attempt to punish the opponent. Macae
I remember the sports commentators saying something about this game being a first (after a while) that the Longhorns had been unscored upon. Anyone remember this? This would be a good addition. -- Blueag9 ( Talk | contribs) 02:03, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I notice that Blueag9 changed one of the headings from "After the season" to "Post-season". I originally considered "Post-season" for the heading but went with the longer heading title for three reasons:
For these reasons, I went with the original title of "After the season". I look forward to everyone's thoughts on what we should call this heading. Johntex\ talk 08:50, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi
The article is over 500kb in size. 290kb of that is the references.
Can someone perhaps try and cut these down a bit ?? For example is there any need to have:-
In the main text there are many double and triple refs which are completely unecessary.
WP:MOS states at least one ref per para and, while not condoning cutting down to that level, it seems that many of the refs are really superfluous.
