2004 College Football season preview
According to my crystal ball (aka NCAA 2005's simulation mode), Texas' 2004 season will look like this:
USC wins the National Title with an Orange Bowl victory against LSU. Here is the simulation's complete BCS rundown:
I guess this all means that we're in for one crappy year of college football. The funny thing is that the game shows its realism. Despite going 8-4 with a pathetic showing in the Alamo Bowl, Texas finishes the year at #19. The TRCM can really sell that snake oil, even in the EA Sports universe.

W 27-17 v. North TexasTwo home losses? Not even the TRCM could manage that. In fact, for all of his bumblings against OU, Brown has lost a grand total of two home games in his six seasons at UT. And an Alamo Bowl loss to Michigan, while unlikely, wouldn't be the strangest thing that could happen this season.
W 35-30 @ Arkansas
W 59-6 v. Rice
W 59-28 v. Baylor
L 24-30 @ #2 Oklahoma (Dallas)
L 23-31 v. #17 Missouri

W 41-38 @ #25 Colorado
L 24-31 v. Oklahoma State
W 34-7 @ Kansas
