Texas loses QB McCoy, then national title hopes at K-State

From the AP via ESPN:

Texas lost its young star -- and a whole lot more.

Quarterback Colt McCoy was hurt scoring a touchdown on the fourth-ranked Longhorns' opening drive, and his replacement struggled in a 45-42 loss to Kansas State on Saturday night that knocked the defending national champions out of the title hunt.

The Longhorns (9-2, 6-1 Big 12) got within a field goal on Chris Ogbonnaya's 1-yard touchdown run with 1:36 to go. But Jordy Nelson recovered the ensuing onside kick and then caught a 6-yard pass for a first down that sealed the Wildcats' win.

Josh Freeman took a knee, and purple-clad fans streamed onto the field to celebrate their biggest win in a few years.

God damn it. And this had to be one of the few Texas games I've actually gotten to watch this year. Damn.

Damn, damn, damn. That's all I've got to say.
