Misery Index · Euphoric
A 59-7 stomping of Texas State had the room purring, with Biles the only name anyone needed to repeat.
The emotional rollercoaster
Texas fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Texas opened against Texas State and never gave the thing a pulse, winning 59-7 to sit at 1-0. The turning point came early, when the defense stopped bending at all and Biles started living in the backfield — one fan called him "the best player on that defense by a healthy margin. Thank you!!" The mood in the threads was pride tempered by perspective: "look at that, stomping teams we should be stomping. great way to start the season." Nobody learned much. Nobody minded.
