Case of the Mondays

Word came today that Colt McCoy and Justin Blalock would both be starting against Texas A&M. According to Texas head coach Mack Brown neither of them have anything to worry about.
"Colt's 100 percent good to go, and Justin is too," Brown said.

Texas has been beset by injuries all season, and the off-week gave them some time to recover. Looking on the season, with only one regular season game remaining, Brown can't help but like what he sees.
"This team has played with the pressure of last year's team," he said. "For them to do what they've done is remarkable."
Brown called the number of injuries "insurmountable," and pointed out they'd also began they year having to choose between freshmen quarterbacks.
Now they're a win from clinching the South Division and another from playing in a BCS bowl.
Two years ago Brown had just to gripe to get in a BCS bowl. Now fans are griping that it's not the national title game.
So easily spoiled...

Brown didn't have much to say about his A&M counterpart's job situation.
The coach has come under fire after his team's lost close games following questionable coaching decisions, but Brown is looking at the bigger picture.
"Fran's won eight games. He's done a great job," he said.
