  1. Past hour
  2. Fair enough, I’m looking at the trend of the Kelly tenure though. The offense got worse once they lost Denbrock for sure.
  3. Sark doesn't qualify as an NFL retread since he's never been a HC? IDK what a Titans exec would like about Sark's offense this year, or his OC tenure with the Falcons, but Kingsbury was a HC, so anything is possible.
  4. it wasn't belt-to-ass; it was ass-To-mouth.
  5. No no. This is a circle of trust here.
  6. At the end of the day, money matters most. The committee will pick what is best for TV ratings and media coverage, whether that's a feel-good story or rage bait. Texas is in.
  7. Good, but better:
  8. I don’t ever want to hear talk again about how LSU is poor and can’t afford to “fill in the blank.” Anyone who has ever posted something like that on this site is full of shit and has no idea what they’re talking about.
  9. Whenever Kirby comes back to Austin, they need to Twin Cam him with Barney Rubble from the Flintstones
  10. Damn you I need to clean up the spilled coffee now
  11. So far, yes. The Falcons will probably open up, maybe the Cardinals.
  12. Or just put him on ignore and stop shitting all over the thread?
  13. As a Texas fan, I am obviously biased and think we should get in. But here is my best attempt at an un-biased take: All teams have a ceiling and a floor. Winning a National Championship requires an extremely high ceiling, so the Committee's main focus SHOULD be finding the 12 teams with the highest ceilings and putting those 12 teams into the playoff. Keeping teams out because of a bad loss, in my opinion, focuses too much on the floor rather than the ceiling. Here's what I mean by that. Let's say you rank every team's floor and ceiling on a scale of 1-10 (1 means you suck, 10 means you're the best). This year, you could argue that our floor is probably a 3 because of our loss to Florida as well as our struggles with MSU and UK. However, you can also argue that our ceiling is probably an 8 because of our 3 wins against OU, Vandy, and A&M as well as our close loss to OSU. Now compare that to one of the other bubble teams like Vandy: You could argue their floor is higher than ours because they only have 2 losses (both of which were to good teams), so let's just say their floor is a 5. HOWEVER: there is no justification to argue that their ceiling is much higher than their floor. They haven't beaten any good teams, and they also struggled with some bad ones. So let's say their ceiling is a 6. If you compare Texas (with a floor-ceiling span of 3-8) to a team like Vandy (span of 5-6), there's no reasonable argument to be made that Vandy is more likely to WIN a National Championship than Texas. Is Texas more likely to drop a game to a bad team? Sure, technically they are. But, A) there won't be any bad teams in the playoffs, and B) Texas has already shown they can beat other playoff teams. Oh, and C) Texas fucking beat Vandy. In summary: Focusing on something with a small floor-ceiling span might be a safe way to invest your money, but it's a stupid way to pick teams for a playoff. If the committee ranks Vandy ahead of us tonight, I will riot.
  14. My anxiety about getting there on time makes driving myself a better option on the front end and then when I get back, the experience of being able to walk right to my car and get home is worth the money and missing the hassle of the uber experience coming out of ABIA.
  15. The way this aging Gen Xer sees it , there is something different about watching some of the SEC games on TV that you actually feel like you are at the games. I notice whenever I watch Bama, UGA and a few other SEC teams, the networks have no problems turning up the volume from the stadium mics to pick up the band. It used to be to some extent we'd get the same when we played at DKR, we'd hear the band often between plays or timeouts which just adds to broadcast. Now they limit it because who wants to hear some heavy bass influence pump up music that you can find at an NBA arena or NFL stadium where they don't have bands and the such to pump up the crowds or provide the atmosphere. Now get off my lawn..... I need to go open the AARP mailer on my kitchen counter.
  16. What are current NFL openings? Just Titans and Giants?
  17. Great, time to freak out again because of Kalshi We all know the hire for the Titans will be an NFL retread, like 90% of all hires in the NFL
  18. Click the link in post above mine. I'm not your ChatGPT.
  19. https://kfor.com/news/local/treat-family-sues-oklahoma-law-enforcement-over-response-to-crash-that-severely-injured-son/
  20. Made millions in the coaching profession. Ain't America great? 🤣
  21. I swear NFL GM's are like those girls who think the bad boy who cheats on every girl he's ever been with and treats them like shit will suddenly change and be a different person with her. Kliff Kingsbury has failed as a head coach not just at Tech, but also with the Arizona Cardinals. He absolutely sucks as a head coach. He is an OC, and that is all he should ever be...but these morons keep Peter Principling guys who are great coordinators but crappy head coaches. I just don't get it.
  22. Hell yeah, I’ve heard it is awesome. And thats what got my interest in the Childress Hall course. Same design group behind the project but seems much more accessable for us Texans.
  23. Missouri's starting QB was hurt in the 3rd Quarter against Vandy and played against OU.
  24. Yeah, this isn't believable without a link for verification. For science.
