Longhorns taking a ho-hum attitude about being number one
05:32 PM CDT on Monday, October 13, 2008
AUSTIN -- The Texas Longhorns today gave a collective ho-hum to their new role as No. 1.
Linebacker Sergio Kindle says you can't get all "big-headed."
Texas earned its first regular-season No. 1 ranking since 1984 with a 45-35 win Saturday over Oklahoma.
But the Longhorns (6-0, 2-0 Big 12) say the more important numbers are 11, 8, 7 and 16 -- the rankings of four of their next five opponents in a murderous schedule.
Quarterback Colt McCoy says the Longhorns have got to continue "to go play."
UT plays at home Saturday against No. 11 Missouri (5-1, 1-1), which was No. 3 until losing at home to No. 8 Oklahoma State. The Cowboys are next on the Longhorns schedule.
Road trips to No. 7 Texas Tech and No. 16 Kansas round out the tough stretch.
