Sports - College Football/ Texas - Oklahoma State / Texas QB rant

Now this game I separated because i have a few opinions on these 2 teams.  First off Texas went in expected to lose to Oklahoma State however it was a close game up until the 4th quarter.  Texas's inability to pass more consistently prevented them from coming back and beating Oklahoma State.  Final score 38 - 26.  Texas RB Brown had an good game rushing 19 carries for 135 yards and 2 touchdowns showing Texas's long string of quality running-backs still continues.  My biggest problem with Texas right now is their coaching.  I understand they have a young team, however playing a 2 QB system up until this game is asinine.  First off Ash is the more talented QB, he can run faster and has a stronger arm.  McCoy is the younger brother of current Cleveland Browns starting QB Colt McCoy.  I will say this Mack Brown can recruit some of the best talent in college football, but your bread and butter players over the years weren't the most talented.  Case in point current co-offensive coordinator Major Applewhite was too short and not strong enough arm yet he won a lot of games for you Mack but in the crunch you still went with Simms.  Next Vince Young had an awkward throwing style and was considered not that accurate, yet he got you a National Title.  The latest one was Colt McCoy, was small, weak arm and not a very commanding presence.  Snead was more talented and knew the playbook better.  Yet you went with Colt and never looked back.  Now you have his younger brother Case who is taller than Colt and right now is the most accurate QB you have, but all I hear from the analysts is that he doesn't have a very strong arm and can't move as fast.  It's work for you so far, why change your plan now.  Ash may be more talented but talent doesn't win games in your playbook Mack, "heart" does, and Case seems to have more of it than Ash.
